Playa del Fuego, also known as PDF, is a regional event held annually in Tamaqua, Pennsylvania.
[1] Visual and performance artists from all over the mid-atlantic region and the East Coast create a temporary community for the weekend.
The volunteer areas include: the PDF Rangers, First Aid, Gate Crew, DPW, LNT, Participation Station, Lamp Lighters, and Sound Patrol.
Gates open for Playa del Fuego Thursday afternoon of Memorial Day weekend.
The primary factor which prevents the ticket cap from being increased to meet demand is the number of volunteers available to staff various aspects of the event.
Other factors taken into account when raising the ticket cap are the availability of space for parking and the impact of noise on surrounding residents.
