guidelines
and rules for attending

THIS IS A FREE EVENT TO ANY AND ALL!

But here’s the deal. Since this is a neighborhood-run event, and since we are not closing off streets, there are some rules for all participants to adhere to.

Basically, be respectful, be kind, use common sense, and don’t do anything illegal.

More specifically:

  • Do not gather in the street - please stick to yards and sidewalks

  • No open containers while moving from porch to porch

  • Do not litter - each porch host will have trash and recycling bags/bins

  • If you are driving, do not block driveways or fire hydrants

Some suggestions for attending Porchfest:

  • BYOC (chair)

  • Use a bicycle to get around

  • This is a rain or shine event - plan accordingly

  • $$$ - Prepare to tip the musicians you are digging (tip jars and Venmo signs will be displayed)

  • Keep abreast of any day-of updates by following Highland Park Porchfest on Instagram

  • Have a freakin’ blast and spread generosity and goodwill
