  Welcome Centers
Be sure to stop by a Welcome Center on your way in from the parking lots or after the shuttle drops you off. You can pick up a festival program and ask questions of our volunteers. The centers will be located at the edge of all the major parking lots on campus and at the shuttle drop-off location.

  People movers
Volunteers will be driving golf carts around the perimeter of the festival for those needing assistance getting around campus. You can catch a ride waiting at one of the stops identified with a large yellow balloon.

  Interpreters
Sign Language interpreters will be posted at each Welcome Center and various locations around campus. They will be wearing T-shirts marked “Interpreter.” In addition, the main stages will have interpreters for all performances.
