The community event draws approximately 5,000 people each year.

No alcohol and no pets are permitted at the event. Caution should be exercised with service animals due to the large crowds and fireworks noises. Extensive free parking is on the STS Great Front Lawn. Handicapped Parking (by permit only) will be in a designated area as close as possible to the Rte. 172 crosswalk. (The Lake Stibbs parking lot will not be used due to storm-related damage.) Due to congested event traffic and safety concerns, there will be no pedestrian walking, no vehicle parking and no parent “drop off/pick up” along Route 172.
