Tips & Advice

- Opt for the Combo Package if you plan to enjoy both the Festival and Adventure activities for a discounted rate, but remember it must be purchased online.
- Bring cash to avoid service fees for on-site purchases and for any additional paintballs for the slingshot range.
- While dogs are welcome on a leash, they are not permitted in the petting zoo or reptile area.
- Dress in layers and wear closed-toe shoes, as the event is outdoors and involves various activities on potentially rugged terrain.
