Last Minute Tips for the Fest
Howdy Friends!
We are just two days away from the 13th annual Sugar Maple Traditional Music Festival. Are you as excited as we are?! Share this link and spread the love. Let’s pack the big tent and show our artists just how much we appreciate their music!
Want a sneak preview of the fest? Check out Devil in a Woodpile at the UW Union Terrace Thursday August 4 from 5-7 pm.
Schedule and ticket info is available at www.sugarmaplefest.org but here are some last minute tips:
- Get your tickets now! Advance tickets are available through Thursday on-line and at Willy St. Co-op East and West, Whole Foods, Spruce Tree Music, and Orange Tree Imports.
- Bring the kids; ages 17 and under are free!
- Ride your bike to the fest and enter a drawing for a 3 bones bike rack from our sponsor Saris! Drawing to be held around 4 pm on Saturday.
- We have food! This year’s vendors include El Grito Taqueria, Underground Butcher, Toast Food Cart / Gili’s Paninis, Wadizzit Traveling Food and El Sabor de Puebla
- We have drinks! Beer from Tyranena Brewing Company and mead from Bos Meadery. Yum, yum! And all beer $1 off during the Malt House Happy Hour Set at the festival with Mal-O-Dua! Friday from 5-6:15 pm.
- Carry-ins allowed but please support our wonderful food and drink vendors!
- Bring your instruments for jamming! This is an interactive festival and your participation is what sets the Sugar Maple fest apart from other music fests!
- We are a rain or shine event; all of our artists perform under tents or shelters.
- Bring a chair or a blanket to sit on. We have a limited number of chairs, and yours are more comfortable anyway.
- Leave all pets at home. Park rule.
- Bring Cash. We will have an ATM but if you have some $ in your pocket when you come, you will be all set.
- We know you’re social (we’ve seen you on the dance floor!) so get on those internets and spread the word…
See you at the big tent!
