Before purchasing tickets for Classes, Evening Events or Ghost Tours, we highly recommend that you make a plan by looking at the 2023 Schedule so you can decide how you want to spend your time and to make sure you don’t purchase tickets for classes or events that overlap or cause scheduling conflicts. Please plan carefully because there are NO CASH REFUNDS. Individual tickets for classes, tours, investigations and events are available from each class or event page and can also be accessed through the 2023 Schedule or the Online Box Office. 

In addition to purchasing individual tickets to classes, tours or events, you will also need to purchase a General Admission Ticket. General Admission Tickets can be purchased through our Online Box Office or at the Oregon Ghost Conference Box Office at the Seaside Civic and Convention Center, March 24th-26th. General Admission tickets are good for admission to the Vendors Area and all Main Stage Speaker presentations for all three days of the Oregon Ghost Conference.
