There is NO on-site park parking. There is complimentary parking and shuttle service to the park. Look for event parking signs. Shuttle buses will pick-up in each of the designated festival parking lots and shuttles will run throughout the festival hours. If you have a government issued handicapped sticker/tag police officers will direct you to handicap parking areas. Handicap parking is limited and is available on a first-come, first serve basis and fills-up quickly so plan accordingly. Do not park in non-festival designated lots during the festival. You may be towed.
