Festival attendees will also experience returning attractions such as The SweetWater Experience tent, live comedy acts, a local artists market, food trucks and the Planet 420 environmental and nonprofit village.
A limited number of discounted three-day general admission ($42) and three-day VIP "Big Fish" passes ($185) can be purchased through Jan. 6 at www.sweetwater420fest.com . After Jan. 6, the prices increase to $55/$75 and $225/$265, respectively.
