What to Wear to the Main Parade & Festival
Dress for Festival Success
The Main Parade & Festival on Saturday is spread between outdoors and indoors. Some years, we have enjoyed 70 degree festivals and other years the freeway was shutdown because of a snowstorm.
In the case that the festival takes place during colder weather, please know that there is simply not enough room indoors though and everyone should be dressed to party outside. We have security ensuring a safe and legal capacity indoors and there may be a line to get in to the main hall at times to ensure safe capacity.
That being said, we strongly encourage you to dress appropriately for the weather — in costume is even better! Your football tailgaiting gear, snow pants, and ski jackets are all completely appropriate and welcomed to keep you warm.
