Q. Is
there preferred seating at the main event?
A.
Yes,
we have the Friends of Jazz Pavilions. This Pavilion is a hospitality style
tent which offers tables and chairs for the comfort of
the guests who have purchased tickets to this Pavilion,
as well as complimentary food and 2 free drinks. There
is no room in this pavilion for your own chairs
or loungers. However, of course you may setup on the
field with your own chairs and come and go in the
Pavilion for refreshment and to eat at the tables and
chairs as you please. You may also feel free to view the
entire event from the Pavilion and stay there all day.
Coolers may not be brought into the pavilion, however,
there will be an area just outside of the pavilion to
store your cooler. Tickets for this Pavilion are only
available online. If the Pavilion is not sold out prior
to the event, you may upgrade your general admission

stage. It flanks the stage to the right. There is also a
TV inside the Pavilion which is displaying the concert
live.

Q.
What is the size limit on the cooler that I may bring?
A. The size of the cooler you may bring is
limited to 14" x 21". The reason for this is that larger
coolers would be difficult to transport on our trolley
system and could possibly infringe on the comfort and
convenience of all guests. This is STRICTLY enforced.
Q. Do
you have any special provisions for the handicapped?
A. Head toward the main entrance, (follow
signs for Jazz on the Green VIP Parking and Volunteer
parking area.) There will be a Volunteer or Committee
member at the entrance to the parking area who will
direct you to handicapped parking. If need be, they will
be able to call for one of the golf carts to assist you
to the concert site.
We also have handicap-accessible portable toilets on
site.
Q.
What happens if it rains?
A. This event takes place rain or shine. Tickets
are non-refundable. We have Jazz on the Green rain
ponchos for sale in the Jazz Gear tent if you forget
your umbrella. Although it hasn't rained during the
event for the last two years, in previous events when it
has rained a bit, it is a magical moment as you look out
over the crowd toward the stage and see all the
beautiful umbrellas pop up one by one...turning into a
sea of umbrellas.
Q.
Where is Lost & Found?
A. Our Lost and Found area is located at Jazz
Control Central, which is located in the Sponsor Row
area at the end of the row, toward the back of the
field.
