If you have a service animal, you must contact us in advance or you may be turned away at the gate. Send an email to info@flashepoint.com with your information and we’ll let the land owners know.
Service animals are handled case-by-case and you must get in touch with our team in advance to discuss this with us, as the land owners have numerous lovely four legged friends who can escape enclosures from time to time.
We do not offer discount tickets pre-event for volunteers. We do offer an enormous amount of gratitude, raffle tickets for a raffle containing gifts from all of our vendors onsite (and then some), meals for hospitality and gate volunteers.
