Help us reduce traffic by leaving your vehicle parked and walking to the festival site. Take a ride on the “FolksWagon” shuttle bus. Buses leave hourly from marked bus stops along the trailhead paths and run from all three campgrounds to the festival site. The shuttle service is free, but donation buckets are at the front of the bus beside the driver.
