The festival grounds are in New Braunfels. The organizer lists its office at 178 Landa Park Drive, New Braunfels, TX 78130; that listing identifies the office, rather than a particular entrance. Visitors buying online are advised by the organizer to download or print their admission ticket before arriving.

Parking, shuttle and rideshare

The Park ‘N Ride lot is at the Comal County Fairgrounds, 701 Common Street. For Nov. 11–13, the lot opens at 4 p.m. and the first shuttle leaves at 4:45 p.m. On Nov. 14 and 15, the lot opens at 10 a.m. and the first shuttle leaves at 10:45 a.m. The organizer says shuttles run continuously until the festival closes; reservations are not required, and walk-ups are welcome.

Parking beside the grounds is limited, according to the organizer's parking page. The city designates Landa Park Pavilion No. 16 on Mill Race Run as the rideshare pickup point. From the grounds, its directions lead along Landa Park Drive to the marked crossing at Golf Course Road, then across the bridge to the pavilion.

Street and bus routes

The city schedules the westbound Landa Street lane closure from Zink Street to Landa Park Drive from 3 p.m. to midnight Nov. 11–13, from 9 a.m. Nov. 14 to 2 a.m. Nov. 15, and from 9 a.m. to midnight Nov. 15. Pedestrians may still use that stretch. Charter buses, motorcoaches, party buses and limousines follow a one-way Hinman Island route from Elizabeth Avenue toward Liberty Avenue, with drop-off over the railroad tracks on Hinman Avenue.
