NEW THIS YEAR
As we are getting back to the place we all love, we wanted to share some exciting changes at this year’s Festival:

  • Sitewide Licensing

Folks can now enjoy beverages from the taverns anywhere on the festival site! This will reduce crowding while allowing people to watch their favourite artists on any stage. We are depending on everyone to help make this a success by properly disposing their beverage cups and enjoying their drinks responsibly. Please note that the Family Area is an alcohol-free zone.

  • Contactless Payments

Both taverns and the Festival Merch Store (formerly Festival Music Store) will now all take debit, credit and cash. Additionally, most food vendors and Hand-Made Village artisans will accept debit, credit, as well as cash.

  • Safer Spaces

We have a new Safer Spaces Policy in place and our trained Safety and Security Folk Volunteers (volunteers in blue vests) will be there to keep our community safe. There’s also a list of resources on our website and app to support you for any additional needs.
