Behind the Scenes Tour

Join us in celebrating the 20th Anniversary of Bethel Woods with a unique series of tours that delve into the rich history of the iconic Woodstock Music & Art Fair. Experience a Behind the Scenes Tour to get an insider’s view on what it takes to produce a show, beginning with the story of Bethel Woods and its mission to uphold the legacy of the 1969 festival. Travel by golf cart with an expert guide, explore the Pavilion and historic grounds, and enjoy the rare opportunity to step onto the Pavilion stage where music legends have performed.

Next, hop on a golf cart for the Main Gate Tour and journey back to 1969, visiting significant locations where 450,000 people gathered to share and jam. Discover the Bindy Bazaar, the Free Kitchen, the Art Fence, and more, while viewing never-before-seen photographs taken at these moments.

For those 18 and older, don't miss the Adults Only Tour, which delves into the more taboo stories of Woodstock. Gain access to the upcoming Special Exhibit, "How Bazaar! Arts, Crafts, and Camping at Woodstock," while uncovering juicy historical tidbits and hearing unfiltered stories from the Oral History Initiative. This tour is a perfect add-on to the Main Gate Tour and requires guests to show ID. Join us to celebrate this milestone and explore the legendary stories behind Woodstock!
