What to Bring
Lawn / camp chairs, blankets, and leashed, well-behaved dogs are welcome. Families are welcome, but only 21+ will receive a wristband. Minors under 21 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.

What to Leave at Home
Please leave bags at home. We’re requesting that only bags that are necessary for family care, etc. be brought to the event. Any bags at the entry gate will be checked / searched before entry. Please don’t bring outside food or drinks – we have some great food trucks coming!

ID’s will be checked at the entrances and attendees that are 21+ will receive a wristband with 3 drink purchase tickets. A ticket will be removed with each beer purchase. When food is purchased, the 3rd ticket will be stamped/punched so that it can be used to make a third beer purchase. All beer must be kept and consumed within the fenced barrier of the Biergarten area (front part of the Common).

How to Get There, Where to Park
Biking and walking to the festival is encouraged (there are bike racks at the Town Common and nearby vicinity). Please note that Elm Street will be closed starting on Thursday to ensure access for pedestrians and food trucks. If driving to the event, vehicles are encouraged to park at the Town Municipal Parking Lots at 10 Mudge Way, the High School, or John Glenn Middle School, and walk over to the Common.
