Frequently Asked Questions
The July and September events are located at Aselton Park, which is located at the crossroads of South and Ocean Streets overlooking the Hyannis Harbor.
It’s a bummer there is no parking on site at Aselton Park, but there are many public parking lots located very close to the event, where you can park for up to 6 hours.
The weather on Cape Cod is hard to predict, so we encourage people to keep an eye on the local forecast and dress appropriately - and if you catch a chill, you can be sure to find a cute sweatshirt at one of our local vendors. Also, Aselton Park does not offer much shade, so make sure you pack a hat and sunscreen! And keep in mind, unless there is extreme weather, the event is rain or shine.
It is free to come to the event and you are invited to spend the day listening to music and enjoying other activities. If you’ve got a few dollars burning a hole in your pocket, be sure to shop with our local makers and brands at the event. Also, we are a small nonprofit who spend countless hours putting these events together and will happily accept any support you might want to give!
Local food trucks and vendors will be offering everything from seafood, burgers (including a veggie option!) and wraps to cold pressed juices, cookies and ice cream pops. You are also invited to pack a picnic or head to one of the great restaurants in the downtown Hyannis area before or after the Fest!
Sorry! There is no seating at the park, so we encourage people to bring a blanket or some beach chairs to post up for the day of listening to live local music, sipping craft beverages and shopping the local makers and brands.
Although there is no secure kid's play area, there will be some limited yard games. You are also welcome to bring a blanket to hang out on.
They sure are - as long as they are leashed and like to make friends with other pooches, dogs are most certainly welcome at the Fests.
There is not an online component to the event but you can find most of the vendors have their own website to buy from!
