Thanks to the generosity of our sponsors, donors and granting organizations, this is an entirely free series of events! Your donations before and during the festival will, however, be gratefully accepted. The only ticketed event is the Gospel Brunch being planned for 12:00 Noon on Sunday.
Chairs or blankets are welcome for the outdoor venues (Saturday on the Town Common and surrounding area, and Sunday at the Fred Smith Park). Of course, the indoor venues have their own built-in seating.
Please DO NOT bring pets (see below), alcohol (we've got you covered with craft beer and wine for purchase at several nearby restaurants), glass containers, tents, umbrellas (the small handheld variety is okay in case of showers), drugs & drug paraphernalia, weapons of any kind, or fireworks. But you knew that.
We love our furry friends, but the concerts need to feel safe and comfortable for everyone, so please leave them at home. Service animals assisting someone with a disability are permitted. Emotional support animals (ESA’s) are not.
Water is allowed, but please no other food or drink indoors. Be sure to check out the great nearby restaurants for a tasty bite.
All venues are accessible with accessible parking as well.
Showcase South Hadley is a rain or shine event, so feel free to bring a small hand held umbrella or a poncho if it looks gloomy.
While some outdoor events could be affected by a rainy day, the majority of the weekend's programming is indoors and will not be impacted.
Yes, we need your help! If you are interested in volunteering, please fill out the application here.
