Watch the weather forecast and dress appropriately. If the weather is relatively warm, the grounds can get slushy or muddy. Food, beverage, and swag vendors will be on site.

All tickets are general admission and there are no limits on the number of tickets sold. Feel free to bring a chair. Blankets may be desirable to wrap up in if the weather is cold, but don't plan on sitting on a blanket on the ground due to snow melt.
