Frequently Asked Questions
Yes! We rent roughly 150 chairs for this event. That said, these seats fill up quickly and many guests choose to bring their own folding chairs or blankets to sit on during the event. We actually encourage it!
Of course! Leashed, well-behaved pups are more than welcome. However, we may charge a snuggle tax periodically throughout the night.
We do not allow adult beverages to be brought in. Everything else is allowed. However, we strongly encourage you to support our food and drink vendors. They are staples of our community and this event wouldn’t be the same without them.
We have reserved the Tuesday following each event as a rain date. All vendors and musicians have committed to these dates. So if everything goes to plan, the event will be postponed exactly 1 week from the original date.
