August 9-10 2024

Redeem your ticket for a bracelet on show day at the LBR Gas Bar (3138 Shore Rd). Pick up your drinks there too! Certified the "Coldest Beer in Nova Scotia" by Horse and Hound Magazine.


Frequently asked questions

Are there ID requirements or an age limit to enter the event?

Take your government-issued ID. It's 19+

Is there somewhere nearby to buy booze/chips/fly dope/get cash etc?

YEP. The LBR Gas Bar, 2 km up the road at 3138 Shore Rd. Also the very spot you redeem your ticket for a bracelet! Verifiably the coldest beer store in Nova Scotia. Not even joking. Don’t buy glass bottles of beer and bring plastic cups for your mixed drinks. There is also an ATM in the LBR.

Can I buy tickets at the gate?

No. You have to buy them at the LBR Gas Bar down the road. There you will get your bracelet.

Will there be concessions on site (food service, water, merch etc)?

There will be a food truck and merch tent on site. Bring cash! Service can be spotty for digital payments and e-transfers.

I'm not much for camping, but I still want to come see the show. Are there hotels in the area?

Best to check for accommodations in the nearby towns of New Glasgow (29 mins drive from the site) or Antigonish (32 mins drive from the site).

Can I bring my 47-foot Brontosaurus-mobile Deluxe RV?

YES. Bonus points if you invite us in for a drink or 7. Please note there are no power, water or waste hookups.

Can I bring an hibachi or BBQ?

Hell yes. Save us a burg.

Can I have a campfire?

Sorry, no can do. That said, you should bring some warm clothes just in case. Nova Scotia’s weather is unpredictable.

What are my parking options?

There is lots of parking. Tons of it.

I’ll definitely want to go swimming. Will there be a lifeguard at the beach?

You should absolutely go swimming, but you are on your own there - there is NO lifeguard!

What CAN’T I bring to the Blacktop Ball?

Any of your kids who are minors (19+ right?). Beverages in glass bottles. Your ATV (of any kind). Fireworks. Firearms (not that anyone would be DUMB enough to do that). Lawn Darts. A bad attitude.

What CAN I bring to the Blacktop Ball?

Your dog (but it MUST be on a leash at all times). Your musical instrument of choice. Any outdoor game that doesn’t involve sharp points or explosions.

Will you be selling merch?

We'll have a merch tent - bring some cash!

Is there anywhere onsite that I CAN’T go?

Any of the buildings onsite (Cottages, mobile homes, barns etc). The stage. The sound guy's area (Leave him alone. He doesn't need your advice).

Where can I contact the organizer with any questions?

Is my registration/ticket transferrable?

Negative.

Can my band play the Blacktop Ball? We are really good….

Send a demo to thestanfieldsband@gmail.com. We are filled up this year, but we will have a listen!

Will there be two nights of music?

You bet! We have some great bands lined up for Friday and Saturday night.
