Rain Date
This is an all weather event . The only reason we would cancel is if the weather is extremely severe or like the parking fields are snow covered but our blizzard wizard is on retainer to prevent this.
Refunds
All ticket sales are final. No refunds will be issued or transfers honored for other events unless we cancel or reschedule.
No Furry Friends Please
Pets other than service animals are prohibited. You may have seen people bring pets. Those people might not have seen the FAQs on the website or this part of the ticket, or the posts about it, or may be ignoring all of these. But please, out of respect to the venue, and non-pet people, and our insurance policy, please leave your furry friends at home. You will be turned away if you have a non-service animal pet with you.
Children
Should I bring them?
Depends how feral they are. If they are at least mildly civilized they’ll be thoroughly entertained and will remain undevoured.
Are they free?
So you decided to take the plunge and make a new generation of cool kids. Nice. 10 and under are free (except some special events in which case there will be a separate purchasable ticket for them).
Do a lot of kids go?
A lot.
I've heard this is wholesome. But is it?
As you can see from the above questions, people proudly bring their children. Without getting into a philosophical argument about subjectivity and moral outrage, this is generally a wholesome and safe event. People are friendly, loving, inclusive, and peaceful. But it isn't sanitized. The map might say "Long-Ass Road" and our schedule includes active and participatory spellwork and we do not censor adult vendor products (though most are not overt) We occasionally sell a drink that looks like blood in a bag. But it's non-alcoholic, as are all our potions. And while there is absolutely nothing inherently dangerous to encounter, we're likely always going to walk a line of "propriety." And maybe, as a result, pioneer a whole new unapologetic version of wholesome. It is up to you and your parenting style to decide what you personally find objectionable and what is best for your own children.
Photos
You might have your picture taken and we might post it on our socials. If that's a problem, tell someone.
