Entrance
The entrance fee is $10.00 per person. Reduced price pre-sale individual and group tickets are available at Eventbrite. Entrance fee has to be paid in cash only at the gate. Children under 12 have free entrance. Unfortunately, we can not allow dogs (with the exception of service dogs), outside liquor, beer, soda or food to be brought onto the premises. While we allow pop up tents and lawn chairs to be brought in, we do reserve the right to ask you take them down, in case we need the space to accommodate more guests. Thank you for understanding.
Parking
Check out our lyft rebates and leave your car at home! If you are coming with your own car, please carpool, free parking is available! For a parking map, please click here. We suggest to either arrive prior to 2pm, especially when the weather is good, before the parking lots fill up. After 5pm the parking lots start to clear up again as the day crowd slowly leaves and the evening crowd arrives. Please follow the instructions from the parking crew and please do not park outside of the designated parking areas, or your car will be towed. If you are parking at the satellite parking lots (Wimbledon 109 Tennis Club, Next Generation Children's Center, and Westwood High School), please wait for the shuttle bus to pick you up and bring you to the festival grounds. Please do not walk along Rt 109 for your own safety. Shuttle buses will run from open to close.
