How to Get Here

Overall Parking and Accessibility - Carpools recommended!

Free parking is available in many locations surrounding the festival site at 1111 Stevens Drive, Richland! During the hours of Sausage Fest, you may park at Central Church and Lifechurch 7 on Stevens Drive. Street parking is available on Swift Blvd., Long Ave. and Stevens Dr.

Our event does NOT conflict with IRONMAN! We wrap up the night before the race begins!

During Fest, Stevens Drive is closed to traffic north of Swift Blvd. and south of the intersection with Long Ave. Carpools are always recommended.

Parking is not available at Kadlec. Simultaneous events at Fran Rish Stadium and the Columbia Playfields off Swift Blvd. may also limit parking along with staging for IRONMAN. Be prepared to walk a short distance.

Accessible parking is available off Long Ave. by the church’s youth center. Angled accessible spots and Dial-a-Ride drop off is on Stevens Drive.

Take BFT Route 123 for your closest bus stop drop-off to the festival grounds.

Food Booths, Game Booths & Main Entertainment Stage
