Frequently asked questions

Where exactly is the festival?

The festival will take place in the parking lot of Fifth Season Gardening and Rockfish Brewing on Preston Avenue. You will also be able to bring festival drinks into Fifth Season during the event, but not into Rockfish.

Why can't I bring festival drinks into Rockfish?

Since Rockfish will remain open to the public during the festival, drinks from the festival cannot be taken into Rockfish. In addition, Rockfish beers can be bought separately there, but they cannot be taken into the festival space. Rockfish will also be serving select beers in the festival space.

Will there be food?

Yes! Farmacy Food Truck and Fish Füüd will be there.
