We are continuing to work hard to improve the inbound traffic flow and internal traffic circulation.  One change that was successfully started in 2007 is that, until Friday evening at 9:00 PM, vehicles will not be permitted to leave the festival and then re-enter the event grounds.  This means that if your vehicle leaves, it will not be allowed to re-enter.  After Friday evening, if you wish to leave the grounds in your vehicle and then return, you will have to leave through special security gates.  At this gate, we will register your vehicle when you leave, and you will get a pass to re-enter.  You will only be allowed to leave and then reenter with your vehicle once over the weekend. Upon returning you will only be able to reenter with your vehicle through the gate you left, and will be subject to a thorough vehicle search as if you are entering the site for the first time.

This policy will not affect day parkers.  They will be allowed to enter and leave through a separate tollbooth on Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. To get to the tollbooth for day parkers use exit 111 from I-24 and follow the signs to the festival.  If exit 111 is closed, follow police instructions and then follow the signs to day parking. Please note that because of the high inflow of patrons into the festival site on Thursday and Friday, it may take a while for Day Parkers to exit the site on these days.

Please note that this policy only applies to vehicles and not to patrons themselves.  Patrons will be allowed to leave and re-enter the event grounds on foot at their leisure.

Having this policy will allow the internal traffic flow to move more smoothly, enhance audience safety, and will allow maintenance trucks working on the port-o-lets, drinking stations, and other items to service these areas more effectively.
