Rules and Restrictions

We have only a few, but they are very important! Please follow them for a smooth festival experience:

  • DOGS ARE NOT PERMITTED on festival grounds.
    • Attendees with dogs will be asked to leave.
  • NO TENTS SET UP BEFORE SATURDAY MORNING, AUGUST 2.
    • Any tents set up earlier will be dismantled.
    • Tents must be set up in designated areas only. 
  • Overnight camping and open flame cooking are prohibited.
  • No unauthorized vehicles, sales, or solicitations.

Festival Merch

Posters, limited edition t-shirts, and festival buttons can be purchased with cash or credit card at the Information Tent. You can also purchase items in advance at U-Frame-It (8th & Liberty in Erie).

Bucket Brigade

The festival asks everyone to donate to the Bucket Brigade! Our volunteers circulate throughout the event and ask that all adults donate a minimum of $15 each. All donors giving $15 receive a limited edition festival button as a “thank you.”

All funds raised help offset festival costs. We simply cannot do this without your financial support-thank you in advance!
