From the SOUTH - Garden State Parkway North: Exit 109 (Red Bank). Angle to the right at the exit onto Newman Springs Road (east). Go about 2 miles until the end of Newman Springs Road. You'll be at a T-Intersection with a Dunkin Donuts on your right and train tracks in front of you. Make a LEFT onto Broad Street, crossing the train tracks, and make sure you stay to your RIGHT at this fork to continue on Broad Street. (Note that the road here splits into Broad Street (right fork) and Maple Ave. just after you have crossed the train tracks.). Red Bank and the festival are straight ahead.

DRIVING DIRECTIONS ARE ALSO AVAILABLE FROM Mapquest.

Transportation 

PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION

TRAIN - Red Bank's Train Station in the center of Red Bank is approximately 1 1/2 miles from Marine Park. The train is part of New Jersey Transit's (NJT) North Jersey Coast Line (the Red Bank stop). NJT and the stop are handicap accessible.

BUS - New Jersey Transit buses also stop at the Red Bank train station.

Parking 

Red Bank, as well as the Festival Grounds at Marine Park, are relatively small and parking in town is limited. We strongly recommend taking Public Transportation to the Festival or using the Free Public Parking lots to make your experience as well as everyone's experience better!

Parking is very tight in town during the Festival and parking is needed for Town residents and other normal town business so please help us make the Festival enjoyable for all.

A Free Parking lot is available at the Red Bank Middle School (off of Harding Road) which is within 1 mile of Marine Park. Parking Lots are also available at the Train Station and other locations (fees may apply at these latter locations depending on day and time). Watch signs on the way to town for the location of available parking lots. The Train Station parking is FREE after 11 AM on Friday and all day Saturday and Sunday (this includes all Permit parking spots).

Volunteer and Staff Parking:
Public Lots 4 (between Mechanic and Wallace Sts.) and 5 (between Mechanic St. and Linden Pl.) are for volunteers and staff. (See map below)

SATURDAY is expected to be the busiest day of the festival. Given the expected good weather this year and the dramatic increase in sponsorship and visibility for the Festival, we expect a full house, so PLEASE use the remote parking lots or public transportation on Saturday. Don't forget to bring a blanket or chair if you're ready to stay for a full day of music.
