IMPORTANT INFO!!

Transmission is ecstatic to present the annual Fun Fun Fun Fest.

Here's some important information you'll as you head down to the event in Austin's beautiful Waterloo Park (so pay close attention, as there will be a test afterward):

THE FESTIVAL PARKING MAP
Since Waterloo Park is downtown, parking is pretty limited.
Here's a map of all nearby parking garages (first come, first served parking garages are in purple), in case you're driving:



GATE TIMES
Each day, gates will open at 11:30am and music stops at 10pm.


CARPOOL
This is highly encouraged, as (1) global warming is currently taking place and (2) parking around Waterloo Park will be limited.


BIKES
Ride your bike. It's easier, you'll get more exercise, and the Earth won't hate you.


BIKE RACKS
Lots and lots of bike racks will be available right out front of the festival gates on Trinity Street.


AGES
The festival is all ages, but if you plan on drinking, you'll need to present a valid ID at the gate. KIDS UNDER 10 YEARS OLD GET IN FREE.


FILMING
We will be filming both the acts and crowd on both days of the festival. Please be aware that, by walking through the festival gates, you're saying "I'm okay with being filmed." The video footage will be used for promotional purposes only.



AFTERPARTIES

See ya there.
