General Parking
All visitors should park at the designated pool area, accessible via Swimming Pool Road off Little Buffalo Road at the western end of Holman Lake. Upon arrival, you have the following options to reach the festival grounds:
Shuttle Service: Two shuttle buses will run continuously between the parking area and the festival from 11:00 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.

We recommend utilizing the shuttle if walking back up the steps is a concern.
