Can I bring a pet?

LIVE ON THE GREEN IS A PET-FRIENDLY MUSIC FESTIVAL; WE WELCOME FURRY CREATURES OF…MOST VARIETIES.

Please note, while pets are allowed on-site at Live On The Green, NO PETS are allowed inside the VIP hospitality area. If you plan to attend Live On The Green as a VIP, please plan accordingly. Pet owners who are planning to bring their pet with them to the event, be aware of the following…

It is REQUIRED BY LAW that your animal remain on a leash and within your control at all times in a public place. For the safety and security of all festival-goers, we take this rule very seriously. You should as well. Secondly, this is a concert. It will be loud. It will be crowded. There will be other animals. If your pet does not handle such environments well, you should think twice before bringing it. Finally, please be courteous to your fellow festival-goers and pick up after your pet.
