Helpful Tips!

It may be a good idea to bring a stroller for the comfort and safety of younger children. Some vendors may be cash only, so plan accordingly. The festival is held in the city park. The event asks that you please leave your pets at home, with the exception of service animals. Roads are closed during festival hours and the event organizer advises to put Stockton, MO in navigation and that will take you to the square. The park where the event is being held is north of the square and there will be signage to help guide you once you arrive. The park is near North and Spring St. The bathrooms will only be open part time but the Porta-Potties will be open the entire time. For more information, visit their Facebook Page.
