This is your ultimate guide for the day! It includes everything from registration spots and wristband pick-up times to bar hours, specials, and more.

Pick Up Your Wristbands On Time

Make sure to collect your wristband at the designated check-in bar during the allotted time. If you're tardy, you’ll miss out – no wristband, no entry!

Have a Friend Pick Up Everyone's Wristbands

Can’t make it to check-in? No problem! Assign a friend to pick up your wristband so you don’t lose out on the fun.

Note Bar Hours
