Are pets allowed at the festival?
Dogs, Cats, Parrots, Alligators (Pets)
We love Pets but we cannot have them on site at MusicFest. Our own pets are on a holiday being well taken care of by friends and we miss them dearly, but they are safe. Please leave your pets at home or make arrangements for them. Any pets left in vehicles around the Festival may be rescued and taken to the S.P.C.A. It gets unbearably hot in our parking lots, folks.
