Volunteer Information for 2021
Thank you all for stepping up to volunteer for the Festival this year. Your commitment to supporting the Golisano Children’s Hospital is inspiring.
We are looking forward to a successful and safe event and are modifying our operations and guidelines in this second pandemic year. Among the changes:
ALL 2021 VOLUNTEERS MUST BE VACCINATED.
Please snap a photo of your vaccination card or a screenshot of the Excelsior pass and email it to us BEFORE AUG. 16. To protect your personal information, please DO NOT REPLY ALL.
If you have not gotten the shot or do not provide confirmation of your vaccination by Aug. 16, unfortunately, we cannot allow you to volunteer this year.
YOU MUST HAVE YOUR VACCINE RECORD ON FILE IN ADVANCE OF THE FESTIVAL. WE WILL NOT ADDRESS VACCINATION STATUS AT THE VOLUNTEER CHECK-IN AREA.
We look forward to hearing from all of you quickly, so we can focus on a great 2021 event!

Food & Beverages
Food and beverages will be provided at festival friendly rates that will be the most competitive of any music festival that you will attend this year! Additionally, there are several Fairport Restaurants in the area for your choosing. No coolers, please.
No, it is not. Your admission price is a donation to the event that gets you access to all band stage (3) areas. All proceeds from this event are donated to Golisano Children’s Hospital. Food and beverages (water, soda, beer, wine) will be for sale at very reasonable prices.

Parking
First preferred are the two large lots on the south side of the Canal across from the Music Festival, but free parking is available at many public parking lots throughout the Village of Fairport as well. Signs will be posted showing those areas. Please respect private property and do not block any areas with your vehicle.

Festival Hours
Rain Date
No. Each band stage will be covered, and each stage area will have covered tents to protect all from rain. The show will go on with the fun of any rain added. Hey, it rained at Woodstock didn’t it?
Pets
While we are sure that your pets are very well behaved, crowd activity and noise levels may bother the animals, so we prefer that you leave them home. NO pets allowed.
