Has anyone done this fest? If so where did you stay? I know nothing about the area or the parking situation at the fest which doesn't sound great. Any info appreciated.

Longs Park Quesion
Posted on February 18, 2011 at 10:10am 5 Comments 1 Like
I also have questions about Long's Park. I sent a question to them about a permit being required in their info on Zapp. They replied back that most artists don't bring their own tents but use some tent service there that they gave me the name of. I do shows all over the east coast. Most artists I know of bring their own tents. Is Longs different for a reason? Does anyone know? Thanks for your info.
