Festival Financing for All Credit Types
Missed a payment last year? Our panel of lenders works with festival-goers across the credit spectrum³. They understand that past financial hiccups shouldn’t mean missing out on incredible live music experiences, and many are willing to approve borrowers with less-than-perfect credit.
How Personal Loans for Music Festival Tickets Work
All the major festivals like Coachella, Lollapalooza, and Bonnaroo can cost anywhere from $400 for basic passes to over $1,500 for VIP experiences. Add in your camping packages, travel costs, accommodation – and the total investment can climb quickly. While some festivals offer payment plans through their ticket platforms, these plans need you to have excellent credit and sell out within minutes of going on sale.
Personal loans give you immediate access to funds so you can secure your spot without waiting for the festival’s payment plan to become available. Unlike layaway options that might delay your ticket confirmation, music festival ticket loans let you buy tickets online right away and lock in your pricing.
Our fully online process connects you with lenders who understand that experiences matter³. After securely submitting your details through our platform, we’ll match you with direct lenders. If approved, you’ll receive loan offers with clear interest rates, repayment schedules, and total costs upfront.
Once you accept a loan offer, the money is deposited straight into your checking account as soon as the next business day*. You can purchase your festival tickets directly from the official vendor, then pay it off through manageable monthly payments over your chosen loan term. This makes budgeting simpler and helps you avoid the stress of watching tickets sell out while you save up.

Reviews
Maya T., Los Angeles, CA⁵: “Coachella tickets went on sale while I was at work, and the payment plan sold out in literally five minutes. I was so sad because my entire friend group had already bought theirs. I applied through Yup Loans during my lunch break and got connected with a lender the same day. The funds hit my account the next morning, and I got a weekend pass before prices went up. Breaking those monthly payments into chunks I could handle meant I didn’t have to choose between the festival and my rent.”
Derek S., Chicago, IL⁵: “I’d been saving for Lollapalooza all year, but my car broke down two weeks before tickets went on sale. I had to use my festival fund for repairs. My credit wasn’t great, so I thought I was out of luck. Yup Loans matched me with a lender who understood that stuff happens. I got approved despite my credit score, had the money within a day, and still made it to the festival with my crew. The application process was straightforward and didn’t make me feel judged about my financial situation.”
Music Festival & Concert Ticket Loans FAQs
How is festival ticket financing different from Coachella BNPL or payment plans?
Festival payment plans like Coachella BNPL are offered directly by ticket vendors and typically require strong credit, plus they sell out extremely fast – often within minutes. With approximately 60% of Coachella attendees using payment plans, competition for these spots is fierce.
Personal loans give you the flexibility to purchase from any vendor at any time, even after official payment plans have filled up. You’ll also have funds available for the whole festival experience, not just the ticket itself. This gives you more payment options to spread the cost in a way that works for your budget.
Can I get a loan for music festival tickets with bad credit?
You can qualify for music festival ticket loans even with a low credit score³. The lenders in our network understand that credit challenges don’t always reflect your ability to manage current expenses. A lot of people with previous financial setbacks, including those with bankruptcy records or limited credit history, successfully secure financing for festival tickets. Our panel of lenders evaluates multiple factors beyond just your credit score when reviewing applications.
What if the festival gets cancelled?
Personal loans create a financial obligation regardless of whether the festival happens. If your festival is cancelled, you’ll still need to repay the loan according to your agreement⁴. However, most major festivals offer refunds or credit toward future events when cancellations happen, which ticket holders can use to repay their loan. Some borrowers choose to keep the funds for the rescheduled event.
Are festival ticket loans better than using a credit card?
Personal loans typically offer fixed interest rates and predictable monthly payments⁴, unlike credit cards, which can have variable rates that can increase over time. Some festival-goers find that loans offer better terms than high-interest credit cards, especially for larger expenses like VIP packages or multi-festival plans. Loans also don’t impact your existing credit card limits, keeping that credit available for other needs.
