Location

  #FEST is located at the intersection of W Union St. and Twnshp Hwy 557 in Athens, OH. The Venue is less than 2 miles from OU’s main campus. The natural setting of the #FEST location makes for a one of a kind experience. This year’s layout will include the Red Bull VIP Side Stage Area, The Rocksmith Explicit Content Club, a vendors village filled with local vendors and, of course, our Food Truck Food Court. Onsite Parking is available at The Venue for $10.

Do’s and Don’ts

 

Do’s

• Dress appropriately (it could be hot, it could be wet, it could be muddy… don’t wear your Sunday’s best)
• Bring water! Its important to stay hydrated.
• Come prepared for a good time (this event is as free spirited as it gets… we do it for the kids)
• Bring ca$h. Vendors will be onsite selling all sorts of food, non-alcoholic drinks and more
• Bring pop-up/ Easy Up Tents (It’s nice to have some shade. Don’t bring tent stakes - easy up’s only!)
• Use the free shuttles! Don’t drink and drive!
• Car Pool w/ a DD ($10 parking onsite. You CAN leave your car overnight and ride the shuttle home. Cars must be removed by 1pm on Sunday)
• Ask for help if you need it. We have Local Heroes all over the venue to help assist you throughout the day. Police, Fire and EMS personnel will be around.
• Come with friends. Party with friends. Leave with friends. Buddy system, people. No friend left behind.
• Have the time of your life safely, responsibly, and in the name of a good cause.

Don’ts

• No glass bottles! You will not be allowed to bring your favorite beverage if it’s in a GLASS BOTTLE. Bring plastic or cans.
• No FIRES! Its a sure fire (no pun intended) way to get thrown out of the party. We have a ZERO Tolerance policy on fires. DON’T START FIRES.
• No weapons. Again, we produce this event as a way to celebrate life and all the glorious things in it. Bring a smile and a good attitude.
• No Fighting. Period. Our staff and the hired Local Heroes will have none of it, and you may be removed from #FEST.
• No sandals! You will lose them and cut your feet up! Wear shoes! (No sandals isn’t really a rule, just a major pointer from the veterans)
• DON’T get dehydrated. DRINK WATER. All day.
• DON’T DRINK AND DRIVE. We can not say it enough. Use the FREE SHUTTLES.
• DON’T forget why you are here - to have fun, safely and responsibly.
• DON’T get arrested. DON’T harass police. DON’T be THAT person.
