Is there food and drink?

All around Lafayette Square are food booths and concessions offering local culinary specialties: everything from entrée items to delicious desserts. Plus, you’ll be able to purchase a variety of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. Major credit and debit cards are accepted at all vendors. To use cash, please visit the Cash Exchange tent to load up a gift card. No outside food or beverages may be brought into any of the events.

Is there parking?

For those who drive to the event, parking is available in nearby garages or on the adjacent streets where there are parking meters. Paid, on-street parking ends at 7:00 p.m., so bring enough quarters to feed the meters until then. Cars parked by expired meters or not displaying a paid parking receipt on the dashboard will be ticketed. 

For those arriving by bicycle, enjoy a complimentary bike valet from Bike Easy. Drop off your bike and they'll watch it while you enjoy the event.

Are pets allowed?

Pets are allowed in the square during the concerts, provided they are on a leash no longer than six feet at all times. If they display aggressive behavior the owner may be asked to remove them.
