Where Is This Event Taking Place? Where Do I Park? Use the address of 2930 Optimist Farm Road to navigate to our venue. Please note that there are two entrances to this venue, but you will want to enter where there is a yellow Geek and Grub sign that says ‘Enter Here’.
Where Do I Park? Once you pass through the main gate you will then proceed slowly down the gravel road (caution: it’s a two way road), past the building on the right until you reach a big grassy field. You will want to park on the left hand side. Please leave enough room behind the car in front of you to be able to exit (about 25 feet).
