Good Things To Know At This Year's Festival!

STEWART PARK

Frequently Asked Questions

Your one-stop spot!

You can find local tourism brochures, maps of the Town of Perth and answers to your questions. We’re also the place to go for a lost child, lost items or emergency. You can buy Stewart Park Festival t-shirts, tanks, hats, beer mugs, and water bottles as well as After Hours bracelets. You can make a donation here, too (all donations over $25 get a tax receipt). We have a survey you can fill out, or you can just let us know what you think. The tent is open for the entire weekend.

Did You love a performer so much you wanted to take them home? Well, you can have a little piece of the magic. The CD Tent is also where performers stop by to sign autographs. Autograph opportunities will be announced daily.

While we love dogs just as much as you do, they aren’t permitted in the park during the festival (it’s a Town of Perth bylaw). Please leave your furry friends at home.  Read more here.

While the festival is an outdoor event, provincial regulations do not allow smoking in the park or near food services during the festival.

When you gotta go, you gotta go! The Town of Perth provides porta-potties at the eastern edge of the park. There are public washrooms on the south side of Town Hall and at the Crystal Palace. There are public washrooms also at the Mill Street Tay Terrace/Playground complex.

We have 2 water stations in Stewart Park. One is located centrally right beside the Information tent, just in front of the Bandshell.

The second station will be at the Crystal Palace close to the public washrooms.

Fill up your water bottles, stay you  hydrated and help eliminate plastic water bottles! The Town of Perth will be providing filtered water through a new system. We’re so appreciative of their continued support to its community and for all they do!

We will have 2 misting tents: one near the Info Booth in the Market and the other at the Crystal Palace

Help us keep the park clean and green by using our special events recycling containers. We’ll have bins for paper, plastic bottles and metal cans and please use the garbage cans for non-recyclables.



Also we will have a Green Waste And Recycling Booth.

 We have partnered with Climate Network Lanark (CNL) this year to collect, sort and separate compostable and recyclable material. Read more here.

 

Please be advised that the Tay River is not a designated swimming area and is not supervised. There are many dangers, from poor footing and fast-flowing water to rocks. Please be aware of the risks and supervise your children. Play safe!

Wave to Noah Sullivan and his tireless gang of sound technicians. They are on the run for the entire festival so we can sit back and let the sweet music wash over us.

Look for our festival volunteers in their Stewart Park t-shirts. Ask a question, or just say thanks
