FAQ

Should I bring a chair?

Most patrons bring a chair to watch the athletes.  Just keep in mind the festival covers a lot of ground and you can expect to do a lot of walking.

​

Is the festival a cash only event?

The festival is not strictly a cash only event.  However since it is held in a more remote location, POS systems and card swipers are not always reliable.  Please bring some cash as a backup.
