Can I bring my animal?

  • Animals are cute but not allowed at the show. We may have other attendees who are allergic, and we want everyone to have a great experience. Service animals are exempt but must be harnessed, leashed, or tethered unless these devices interfere with the service animal’s work or the individual’s disability prevents using these devices.

What about parking?
