Located in the parking lot behind The Common Grill restaurant, the social tent has free admission from 1-5 p.m. Beer and wine will be for sale to those aged 21 and over with valid identification.

A food court, featuring Vi’s Polish Cuisine, is adjacent to the social tent’s entrance on West Middle Street.  In addition to Polish food, the food court offers a variety of food from Hot Papi’s Empanadas, Cold Steel Grill, Amie Jo’s Elephant Ears, Kiwanis Truck, Smokehouse 52 BBQ, Thompson’s Pizza, Catered Coffee and The Common Grill.

The social tent will briefly close at 5 p.m. and reopen at 6 p.m. with a $5 cover to the festival’s ‘Dance Party’ featuring Root Doctor followed by the return of the dance crowd favorite, FiftyAmpFuse.
