Kindly leave your pets at home.Q: What should I wear to the event?A: Our event site is a former industrial site that does include rough surfaces, uneven flooring, areas of lower light and other potential hazards, and we have made efforts to identify and address areas of concern. The warehouse, which has been an active workspace for more 100 years, also maintains its &quot;Cleveland Grit&quot; and can be inherently a bit dirty. We recommend visitors wear sturdy shoes (rather than high heels or flip flops) and dress in layers, as our old warehouse can be very hot or chilly, depending on the weather!Accessibility: For individuals with disabilities arriving by shuttle, taxi, Uber, accessible transport van or private vehicle, a reserved accessible drop off zone will be located at the Main Festival entrance on 53rd street.Accessible parking spaces will also be reserved in the Staff/VIP/Artist, directly across from the 5401 Hamilton Avenue address. Additional off-site parking will be provided in a section of Ingenuity’s general audience parking. We are continually making accessibility improvements to our site including providing elevator service to the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th floors, addressing challenging areas of asphalt and providing numerous accessible restrooms on the ground level. However, our site still contains areas of uneven terrain including gravel, stairs, and some passageways or art installations that may be narrower or challenging to access. We will make every attempt to accommodate you.For more accessibility information, questions about access, or for assistance on the festival site, please call Emma Morris at (216) 589-9444 ext. 2.
