Important Deadlines for WnH 26 (2023)

After two years of no WnH, we are collectively drier than the Palm Springs desert where WnH is held. Our approach to the 2022 event is informed by its two-year Covid derailment and what we’ve learned about the virus from the scientific and medical communities. Briefly…

• Because the trajectory and transmissibility of the virus, in all its mutated forms, is still unknown, and
• because we endeavor to do what is ethically and legally correct, and
• because there is a great deal of planning and ongoing work throughout the year on our part to assure a flawless event, and
• because you must plan in advance to attend WnH in order to secure time off from work, make arrangements for travel and accommodations, and
• because the host resort has WnH on the books as a firm event…
• we have chosen, for planning purposes, to proceed as though Covid will not pose a significant threat, that the event will take place, and
• we are requiring official proof of vaccination and up-to-date boosters from all attendees to be presented during registration along with official picture ID

To give you maximum flexibility, we have eliminated our “no refunds” policy. We will issue full refunds, less processing fees charged by our ticketing agency, until June 15, when we will announce whether Wet n Hot will be held in light of the uncertainty surrounding Covid.

We will revisit the situation and make an announcement on June 15, one month before the scheduled opening day of WnH, about whether WnH will be held this year or not. We will also issue periodic updates in our newsletter and our Facebook group, both of which you are welcome to join.

We strongly suggest making refundable airline and hotel reservations while the Omicron variant is still raging and airlines are hungry. If you wait, airlines and hotels may tighten their policies.

These are the important deadlines for WnH25 (2022):

• March 21 – Weekend packages go on sale at early bird pricing
• May 31 – Last day for early bird pricing
• June 1 – Prices go up by $25
• June 15 – Day passes go on sale IF the event has not reached maximum legal capacity
• July 11 – Last date to purchase weekend passes online
• July 14-16 – WnH 26 takes place
