Can I bring in food and beverage?
Outside food and beverages are not allowed. Food Vendors will be on site, providing a variety of options of food for purchase. We do encourage you to bring your own refillable water bottle (free refillable water stations will be available on site)! Please note that event security may open water bottles to determine if they contain alcohol, if so, the contents will be dumped out.

No smoking, cigarettes or vapes of any kind are allowed in Victoria Park. If you wish to smoke, you must leave the ticketed area, and will receive a stamp for re-entry.

Where can I park?
Like anywhere downtown, parking is tricky! We encourage you to consider alternative transportation like biking, scootering, taxis, ridesharing, carpooling, or using public transit. On site there will be a free bike valet for safe bike storage!
