Community Festival

Est. 1972

For Performers

Basic Information:

  • You will be given tokens after your performance.
  • Volunteer! You can work a shift together as a band!
  • No BYOB, Please!
  • Please keep your stage volume low. We have extremely good sound professionals; however, they cannot control exceedingly loud stage volume. You may be asked to lower your stage volume by the sound professionals or the stage manager if it is too loud.
  • No RVs, trailers or other large trucks will be allowed.

Leave No Trace

  • We work hard to keep the park clean and you should too. NO CONFETTI. Do not shower the crowd with flyers/ stickers or anything that would need to be picked up. Please clean up back stage.
  • Bring your own water bottle. We will have water for you but we really want to reduce the amount of plastic we utilize. If you bring your own water bottle we you can fill it from our cooler.

Parking Passes:

  • Parking passes are being emailed as an attachment to the primary contact on the application.
  • Not all performers get parking passes. If your group is allotted parking passes, you will get them via email.
  • Use the provided parking pass to print exactly the number of passes specified on the pass itself – no more, no less. Do not bring more vehicles or print more passes than allocated. Only the allotted number of vehicles will be permitted to enter and park at the designated stage parking area. 
  • Parking is extremely limited and breaking procedure may cause you to not be able to perform, since additional cars will be turned away. 
  • Do not attempt to show your parking pass at the gate on your mobile device. YOUR PASS(ES) MUST BE PRINTED, and visible on the dashboard of your car(s).
  • If you have any questions, contact your stage manager or supervisor.

The Day of the Festival:

  • ARRIVE ON TIME – one hour before your scheduled performance time – not early, not late.
  • Check in with the Stage Manager, and the crew will help you unload your gear.
  • After playing, your equipment will be safely taken off stage at your discretion and back to your vehicles. You must load and move your vehicle within 45 minutes after your performance; however, there are several parking lots and garages nearby.
  • Vehicles left after your depart time may be towed. We do this because parking is extremely limited, and we need to get other musicians in and out of the park.
  • If you are performing multiple sets, please contact your stage manager to make special parking arrangements.

Equipment Safety

The Community Festival would like to remind all performers that you are responsible for the equipment that you bring to the event. Stage crew members will assist with careful transportation and setup to the extent that you are comfortable with and in accordance with your own standards. Along with the stage crew, please be mindful of the surroundings and safety of your precious equipment behind the stages.

Got Merch you want to sell?

  • You are free to sell Merch before and after your set. There will be a designated table or area near each stage for band merch.
