How to Dress & What to Bring
Dress for comfort and be sure to check the weather forecast before you head out the door. The festival grounds are a combination of paved surfaces, grass, and gravel, so choose your footwear accordingly. We recommend a hat and sunglasses, but if you forget anything, the Festival Store has lots of great merchandise offerings! Don't forget your reusable water bottle to use at the complimentary water refill stations!
Gov Ball is located at Flushing Meadows Corona Park.
