Getting Ready for the Day

Weather + What to Expect

  • Plan for full sun exposure. Bring sunscreen, hats, sunglasses, and anything that helps you stay cool. Shade can be limited during peak hours, so come prepared.

  • If rain is in the forecast, come prepared. Weather can vary year to year, so plan accordingly—water-resistant layers, boots, and covered seating like pop-ups can make a big difference.

  • It’s completely optional. Some people bring pop-ups or umbrellas for extra comfort, while others share space with friends or keep it simple with a chair or blanket. If you do bring something, just be mindful of space and those around you.
