For these shuttles priority will be given to those who have booked hotel accommodation through the Festival website.
It may be possible for people living offsite but not in official Festival accommodation to book for these shuttles subject to available space, but this information will not be available until nearer the time. To register an interest please complete this form.
Daily shuttles into Williams and Flagstaff
Shuttles will also run to and from Williams in the morning and evening. Cost is $8 per person per day.
Each afternoon, shuttles will run to and from Williams and downtown Flagstaff to allow people to have lunch off-site or explore the area.
Parking
Onsite parking is available at the Festival site only for those who book for the whole Festival. For those booking for only part of the Festival offsite parking with shuttle service will be available at the Circle Pines KOA Campground.
Cost for an onsite parking pass: $8 per day per vehicle. Cost for offsite parking is $3 per day per vehicle plus $7 per person for a return shuttle.
Festival Dining
For those staying onsite, breakfast is included in the accommodations fee. People staying both onsite and off-site can book lunch and dinner by ordering a Festival Meal Pass when booking. Alternatively you can take advantage of the various food options available from the onsite cafés and food courts.
Most of the Festival hotels include breakfast and also have microwaves and refrigerators in the rooms. The Sonesta ES and some of the cabins at the Circle Pines KOA have full kitchens with some rooms; but be sure to check each hotel’s details on the accommodations page.
For more information about restaurants and grocery stores near the Festival hotels see the Festival map.
