We have several parking options available to suit your preferences and ensure a smooth start to your festival experience. General parking, offered free of charge, is conveniently located within a short walking distance to the festival entrance. For those seeking closer access, we offer preferred parking near the entrance, and for an even more enhanced experience, affordable VIP tickets include VIP parking, which is closest to the entrance.

Please note, all parking areas are well marked and easy to find. Simply follow the parking signs as you approach the festival, and our friendly staff will guide you to your designated parking area. Whether you choose general, preferred, or VIP parking, rest assured that getting from your car to the festival fun will be a breeze. We're looking forward to welcoming you and ensuring your visit is as enjoyable and hassle-free as possible!

Absolutely, we've got you covered when it comes to bathroom facilities! Throughout the festival venue, we provide a range of options to ensure your comfort, including toilet trailers, regular porta potties, and ADA-accessible porta potties. We understand the importance of clean, accessible, and convenient bathroom facilities at large events, so we've made sure to have these stationed at several locations around the venue for your ease and convenience. Whether you're enjoying the music, exploring the food vendors, or simply soaking in the festival atmosphere, rest assured that bathroom facilities are always within a short walking distance. 

Absolutely, we strive to make our festival accessible and enjoyable for everyone. Handicap parking is conveniently available within our preferred parking lot, which is located close to the festival entrance. This parking is provided free of charge to anyone displaying a valid handicap placard. Our friendly staff will be on hand to guide you to this area.

Please note, the festival is held on farm land, which means much of our terrain is natural and can be somewhat uneven, without paved sidewalks. While this setting adds to the charm of our event, it may present challenges for standard wheelchairs. For a more comfortable experience, we recommend using scooters or wheelchairs designed for uneven terrain. We're dedicated to ensuring that all our guests can enjoy the festival to the fullest, and we're here to assist with any accessibility concerns you might have.

Pets in carriers or on a leash are allowed. We ask that you please be responsible and pick up after your pets.

In short, think an ancient style of Olympic decathlon, but with 9 events, and athletes wearing Kilts! You can learn more on our page: https://lonestarceltic.org/highland-games

We appreciate your understanding that outside alcohol is not permitted within the festival grounds. 

Additionally, please be aware that liquor is not allowed to be consumed on property owned by Collin County, which includes our festival location. 

We are excited to offer a great selection of beverages for purchase, including beer, wine, and mead, to enhance your festival experience. These options have been carefully chosen to cater to a wide range of tastes, and we hope you'll enjoy exploring the variety available. This policy helps us ensure a safe and enjoyable environment for all attendees. 

Thank you for respecting our guidelines, and we look forward to sharing some fantastic drinks and good times with you at the festival! 

We understand that preparing and bringing your own food can be a wonderful part of a day out. However, we kindly request that spectators do not bring outside food or drink. We've put a lot of effort into curating a diverse and exciting selection of food vendors who greatly appreciate and rely on your support. These vendors play a huge role in the festival experience, offering a variety of options that we hope will delight you. Thank you for understanding and for helping to support the vibrant community of local businesses that make our festival possible. We can't wait to see you there and hope you'll find plenty of delicious discoveries to enjoy! 

Yes, you're more than welcome to bring your own chair to the festival! While we provide plenty of bleacher seating around the athletic field and the dance stage, as well as chairs in the beer garden in front of the main stage, we understand that having your own chair can enhance your comfort throughout the event.  

To ensure you have a seamless experience at our festival, we recommend that if you intend to use cash, please bring it with you. Unfortunately, we do not have ATM facilities available on the festival grounds. All of the vendors accept card payments, but having cash on hand can make transactions quicker and easier, ensuring you don't miss out on anything you want to enjoy. 

We appreciate your understanding and are here to help make your festival experience as enjoyable as possible! 

We prioritize the safety and security of all our festival attendees, artists, and staff. As such, we have a strict policy that prohibits weapons of any kind on the festival grounds. To ensure a safe environment for everyone, Collin County Sheriffs will be actively patrolling the festival. If anyone is found to be carrying a weapon, they will be asked to either secure it in their vehicle or leave the festival premises. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in keeping our festival a safe space for everyone to enjoy.
