Getting Around the Festival

Many Festival venues in downtown Easton are within easy walking distance of one another. Festival buses connect downtown with venues and parking areas located farther from the center of town.

Since ride services are very limited in our rural area, we HIGHLY recommend guests to the festival park in our designated areas at the schools and ride the festival bus into town.

Accessibility

The Waterfowl Festival welcomes visitors of all abilities. Festival venues and activities are generally accessible by paved roads, parking areas, and concrete sidewalks, and many of our community partner venues offer ADA accommodations.

Accessible Transportation & Parking

Each Festival bus route includes an accessible bus. First-come, first-served accessible parking spaces are also available near Festival venues and in public parking areas. Accessible parking locations are identified on the Festival Map and in the Festival pocket guide.

Outdoor Venues

Please note that the Sportsman's Pavilion and Bay Street Ponds venues include grassy areas that may have uneven or muddy walking surfaces.

Mobility Aid Rentals

Hill's Drug Store, located near the Sportsman's Pavilion on Dutchman's Lane, offers short-term rentals of a variety of mobility aids. Advance arrangements are recommended at least two weeks before the Festival.

Additional Assistance
