Frequently Asked Questions:
1. Are we wheelchair accessible? Do have provide wheelchairs?
We are wheelchair accessible and we provide wheelchairs for those who require them on a first-come, first-serve basis. Keep in mind that we can't guarantee availability at all times. Your comfort and accessibility are important to us, so feel free to reach out if you have any questions. We're here to make your experience as pleasant as possible!
2. Are dogs allowed?
Great news for all dog lovers! This year at the festival in the Village of New Richmond, dogs are more than welcome to join in on the fun. However, let's make sure to keep all furry friends on a leash throughout the event to ensure the safety and comfort of all attendees. Remember to show respect to the living history area, vendors, and the town itself. And of course, if you're bringing your fluffy companion along, don't forget to be a responsible pet owner by picking up after them. Let's all have a fantastic time together while being mindful of each other and our surroundings.
3. Are you allowed to bring in drinks to our festival?
Just a heads up, you're more than welcome to bring your water bottles and sealed, unopened pop bottles when you head over. However, we kindly ask that you leave any alcoholic beverages at home because we've got you covered with a selection available for purchase at the local establishments here in the Village of New Richmond. Remember, we're all about having a great time while keeping everyone safe.
4. Are you allowed to bring in your own chairs?
Of course, feel free to bring in your own seating if you prefer! While we do have seating available at every stage, it's always a good idea to come prepared with your own if you want to ensure you have a comfortable spot. We want you to feel at home and have the best experience possible, so bring along whatever makes you feel most at ease. Your comfort is important to us!
