Q: Where will my space be located?

This is an out doors event. You will be either on blacktop or grass. You can only use weights to hold down your tent, no pegs into blacktop. There are vendor pictures on www.kitefestival.com and www.funbeach.com so you can get an idea of how we are setup. Remember we are on the coast of Washington so be prepared for strong winds and rain. We seem to usually have one day of mist or rain. You may want to bring a tarp with you if your tent is not totally water proof.
