Frequently Asked Questions
Are you limiting in-person tuber sale tickets?
Nope. This year we have fairground parking and a large enough facility to accommodate a public sale.
If you aren't limiting tuber sale tickets why do I need to get a free ticket?
We are hiring cashiers and other event staff based on the expected number of visitors. We truly appreciate you taking the time to let us know you are coming as soon as possible. Consider your "ticket" to be an RSVP.
What does a conference ticket include?
All four afternoon sessions, evening roundtables + meet & greet, your numbered spot held at the front of the tuber sale line, DahliaCon swag bag, "How to Grow Dahlias" ecourse ($147 value), "Digital Dahlia Documentation" ecourse ($97 value).
How many tubers will be at the tuber sale?
Last year we had over 10,000 tubers and 600 different varieties and we plan to bring more this year. We will also have new introductions that are exclusive for this sale. In addition, there will be a Dahlia Marketplace with additional tuber and cutting vendors.
When do I get my tuber sale line number?
Conference attendees get their line number at check-in, which opens at 8:00 am. It's already saved for you based on when you bought your ticket, so there's no need to arrive early to hold your place. Free public sale tickets do not hold your place in line. The parking gate will open at 7:00 am for you to enter and line up separately outdoors. Free tuber sale ticket holders will enter the sale after conference attendees.
