Planning tips

  • Buy tickets early for headline nights.
  • Arrive a bit early and keep dinner simple—this is a ‘show first’ evening.
  • Check venue rules for late seating so you don’t miss the opening set.

Build a day around it

  • 2–3 hours: arrive early, event, short neighborhood loop.
  • Full day: one walk/attraction + event + calm dinner.
  • Rainy backup: keep one indoor stop in mind.

Before you go

  • Confirm details — check the official link for last-minute changes.
  • Arrive with buffer — 15–30 minutes early makes everything calmer.
  • Weather plan — one indoor warm stop in case the day turns.
