Do I get all that delicious food for just a $5 entry fee?
No, silly. The $5 fee gets you entry to the festival. You can enjoy all the music, dance, entertainment, family crafts and workshops for free. The food and drinks will be sold by the local restaurants that are collaborating with us. When you enter the festival you can buy food tickets and use them to sample the wide variety of delicious food at the festival. We have worked with vendors to make sure the choices are affordable and also to accommodate vegetarians.
Can I bring my own water and food to the festival?
You may bring 2 factory sealed bottles of water to the festival. No other food or drinks will be permitted.
Can I bring my pets to the festival? They love spicy food too!
Unfortunately, we do not allow any pets at the festival this year. Maybe next time.

Of course! We encourage you to ride your bike or take public transportation. We will have bike racks for you to lock your bike to.
