Driving and parking

There is ample on-site parking. Follow the signage to the designated festival lots; fees may apply on festival weekends. Saturday evening is the busiest window, so arrive before 6 pm if you want a close spot, or plan to park in the overflow lot and enjoy the walk.

MiWay and the Carassauga shuttle

Show your Carassauga Passport to the operator and ride regular MiWay routes and the festival shuttle buses free during festival hours. The shuttles link all the pavilion venues across the city, which is the easiest way to stamp your passport at more than one pavilion in a day. Shuttle schedules are posted on carassauga.com each spring.
