It’s important to us that all music lovers have access to the WE Fest experience! Our friendly ADA access team will make sure everyone is having a fantastic weekend. For more details please read the information below. If you have any additional questions about accessibility, by all means contact us. We will do our best to provide these services and are also eager to hear your suggestions and feedback.
Accessibility Access: Reserved ADA seats are sold out. General Admission tickets are still available.
Accessible Parking: ADA Parking is currently sold out. We encourage parking in the ADA area in the Day Parking Lot and take the shuttle, if you are able. Another option is to have someone drop you off at the Lake Sallie drop off area. From there you can take an ADA cart shuttle to the venue.
ADA Parking is located on the east side of the venue, near the East Entrance. To park in this area, you must have purchased an Accessible Parking pass. Spaces are not reserved, they are first come first served. Please be prepared to present your state issued disabled license plate, hang tag or placard, to festival staff upon your arrival.
Accessible Camping: ADA Campsite is sold out. Standard campsites are available in the Eagle Campground.
Festival Grounds
There will be an ADA Access tent located on the west side in the concert bowl. This is where ADA patrons can get information and request services. The ADA access team can also be contacted through the festival information booth or by calling 218-850-1095.
There will be an accessible viewing area within the venue for guests, who use wheelchairs, have significant mobility disabilities, or who have difficulty standing for long periods of time. The Accessible Viewing Area is located at the back of the reserved lawn seating area. Staff will manage the viewing area accordingly to make sure all patrons are comfortable.
Golf carts will be available to transport patrons with mobility impairments to and from camping and the concert bowl. Rules, guidelines, and schedules for golf cart transportation is available from the ADA access team. Also, a golf cart taxi service is available for all patrons for a fee.
Guests with mobility disabilities are welcome to use motorized wheelchairs and three or four wheeled scooters. For safety reasons, guests may NOT use golf carts, all-terrain vehicles, two wheeled scooters or motorbikes, either in the venue itself, or in the parking and camping areas.
Please send your requests as early as possible to: ada@wefest.com
Prescriptions must have a prescription label. Photo ID must match the prescription label. For the safety of our staff please dispose of all medical waste/syringes in the proper receptacles in our medical tents. Guests needing a cool place to store their medications can contact: ada@wefest.com to make those arrangements.
Patrons with special medical dietary restrictions are allowed to bring a personal amount of food in if accompanied by a doctor’s note. Please contact ada@wefest.com with any questions or concerns.
WE Fest welcomes and supports the rights and attendance of all persons with disabilities that rely on the special skills of a trained service animal. What we DO NOT support, nor will tolerate, are pets being misrepresented by their owners as service animals, when in fact they are not. So please, don’t do it. Leave your pet at home. We mean it.
Service Animal Definition: A ‘service animal’ means “any dog that is individually trained to do work or perform tasks for the benefit of an individual with a disability. The work or tasks performed by a service animal must be directly related to the handler’s disability.”Emotional support or comfort animals are not considered service animals under the ADA and therefore are not allowed at WE Fest.
For our patrons with disabilities who wish to bring their legitimate service animal to WE Fest, we ask that you review and follow the policies outlined below:
All patrons with a service animal will need to have that animal credentialed by WE Fest staff before entering the main gate. This process will be performed quickly and respectfully by our ADA Access Team. What will you need to do? It’s easy. At the entrance gate let staff know you need your service animal credentialed. Staff will speak with you, record your contact information, and provide a collar tag for your service animal. Then you are good to go! Security/Staff will be on the lookout this year for all animals to have a properly credentialed WE Fest collar tag.
Remember, Service Animals are allowed, all other dogs are NOT!
