Festival Rules and Regulations *Please read carefully*
CHECK-IN: When you arrive, check-in FIRST at the Administrative Office trailer near the front gate. You will be asked to sign in and wait until you are called. The first served queue are Fast Pass Vendors for the reason that they have submitted all requirements and paid in full. The second queue will include vendors with missing information, document, incorrect COI, and or any pending payment. Once all of your booth fees are paid in full, your status has been processed and cleared, then you can be checked in for booth placement, camping, photo ID, and Parking Passes.
NOTE: The booth must be checked in and cleared before any employees will be issued ID badges. Please plan ahead, to save yourself time.
NOTE: To be issued an ID Pass, your Booth must have completed the steps above, each Vendor must have paid all fees due, and submitted the necessary information on their employee’s. Anyone seeking to obtain an ID Badge MUST bring their State-Issued Driver’s License or a State-Issued ID to Admin Office. If No State ID.......No Festival ID Badge!
BOOTH PLACEMENT: Once your booth has been cleared for placement, you will be added to the “Placement” list where a designated person will take you (Fast Pass has priority) to your booth space.
*SEE FAST PASS DETAILS TO EXPEDITE* PHOTO IDs: Your Festival ID Badge is required for admittance to the site. If you lose your badge a replacement will cost you $50.00, no exceptions. ID Badges must be carried at all times.
IMPORTANT: Should we find that a Festival ID has been issued to a vendor's “employee” that is not working, a fine of $100.00 will be charged to the booth owner; no exceptions! Employees that quit or are fired are required to return their ID pass to the booth owner – It is the Booth’s responsibility to return the ID to the Admin office or report them.

If you are parked where you do not belong, we will attempt to find you. If there is no pass displayed or readable, or we cannot find you, you will be towed at your expense!
