PARKING IS FREE!

Everyone needs a General Admission ticket (or  VIP ticket or free child ticket) to enter.  You may purchase as many or as few Taste Tickets as you like for samples.  Taste tickets may be shared within your group.

We're putting stricter limits on timed entry attendance to alleviate crowding during our peak times. Arrive any time during your Session window and stay as long as you like. We close at 5:00, so you do have to leave then!

We are selling 950 for each session online, and reserving 50 for last-minute add-ons at that gate, in case you bought tickets but had a friend join, you need a ticket to join a friend in a sold-out time slot. VIP tickets are limited to 500 and usually sell out in advance. 

Online ticket sales end Thursday, Sept. 17 at 5:00 pm.  Tickets on sale at the gate while supplies last. 

• VIPS (limit 500) may arrive a full hour earlier, or any time they wish, and skip the entry lines.
• Session One, Arrive 11 - 1. Our most popular arrival time! 
• Session Two, Arrive 1 - 3. Sleep in and come hungry! 
• Session Three, Arrive 3 - 5.   Last call! Budget friendly.
