Have ticket and am wondering what is the earliest one can arrive at this event? and the latest one can leave? If one is volunteering can one arrive earlier than the first day?

!2:01 the Monday of the event. In practical terms the Tuesday after the event.

Volenteers do get early entry, but it's on a limited basis. You are unlikely to get one from the llc this year. You might get one from a theme camp--if they know you well enough to trust that you will do the work they are letting you in to do. You may not achieve that level of trust in the few short weeks left.

Arrive on Monday and have a good time. And you know, by not having work, you will have the time to adjust to climate and altitude.

Edenstender, welcome to eplaya. dont worry about volling your first year, just check it out and become one with the scene, it worked for me last year. But if you really really really got the volling jag try the lamplighters or artica.
Excuse me Ma'am, your going to feel a small prick.
