Accessibility

Insomniac welcomes all, and we strive to make our environment accessible to our guests with disabilities. During the festival, the venue will feature accessible parking, restrooms, and other amenities, as well as designated areas for wheelchair users and their companions.

Parking

General Parking for the event is Extremely Limited. General Parking will cost $30, and each lot will have a limited amount of Accessible parking spaces for those displaying valid ADA license plates or hang tags.

Note: It is against the law to park in an accessible parking space without the required ADA credentials or to fraudulently use someone else’s credentials to gain access to ADA parking spots.

Entrance

An accessible lane will be located at each festival entry point. Once inside the venue, look for the Access Center (noted on the festival map), which is staffed by personnel who can answer any accessibility questions, as well as provide your wristband for all accessible viewing platforms.

Access Center

Located inside the venue along Rainbow Road, the Access Center is staffed by personnel who can answer any accessibility questions, as well as provide your wristband for all accessible viewing platforms. This is also a designated location for wheelchair battery recharging. While we do not rent out wheelchairs, walkers, or scooters onsite, you are certainly welcome to bring your own.

Service Animals

Service animals are permitted throughout the festival grounds; however, this does not include emotional support animals, therapy animals, or companion animals. Only legitimate service animals will be allowed within the festival footprint. Pets are not allowed and will be turned away.

If you are bringing a service animal, make sure to check in at the closest ADA Access Center for registration. Only legitimate service animals that are properly trained and under the proper care of their owners will be provided with the appropriate credentials.

• All service animals must remain by the handler’s side at all times and must be harnessed, leashed, or tethered, unless these devices interfere with the service animal’s work or the individual’s disability prevents using these devices. In that case, the individual must maintain control of the animal through voice, signal, or other effective controls.
• Service animals must be housebroken and should use the service animal relief area.
• Anyone bringing an animal will be responsible and liable for any damage or injury caused by the animal.
• All animals should have legally required vaccinations that may be checked.
