Frequently Asked Questions

 Q: Do I need separate tickets for each site?

Q: Are the parking areas paved?

A: No - the onsite parking areas are grass fields that could be grass, mulch or gravel in some areas.  Please make sure to plan ahead for comfortable footwear as you may need to walk a longer distance depending on how many guests are there when you arrive.  Event staff will do their best to park you as close as they can to the Parade entrance.  Also, make sure to watch the weather as parking lots may become muddy and slippery during, or after, a rain storm.

A: That is correct.  Most homes will require guest to remove their shoes before entering the home.  Some may provide booties for guest to wear over their shoes and return when they leave or have special instructions posted at the front door.  (If you have an orthopedic condition that requires footwear to walk safely, please stop at the ticket trailer when you enter the site and ask for the site manager.)
