HOW DO I GET TO THE FESTIVAL?

1. OFFICIAL EVENT PARKING AT NC STATE

Dreamville OFFICIAL EVENT PARKING will be available for purchase at NC STATE UNIVERSITY’S CENTENNIAL CAMPUS, right across the street from Dorothea Dix Park.

These parking spaces will be limited and will fill up quick -- FIRST COME, FIRST SERVE!

PLEASE NOTE: Overnight parking is not permitted. All Parking passes are for daily entry into the Parking decks and lots only. Vehicles left overnight in these Parking decks and lots will be towed at the owner’s expense. Please plan accordingly.

2. RIDE THE OFFICIAL DOWNTOWN SHUTTLE

Whether you’re booking a hotel room in Downtown Raleigh for the weekend or just planning to take advantage of the cheap parking in one of the Downtown Parking decks, the OFFICIAL DOWNTOWN SHUTTLE is 110% the best move for you to get back and forth from the festival.

The OFFICIAL DOWNTOWN SHUTTLE will be picking up from MOORE SQUARE in the heart of Downtown, AND will drop you off RIGHT next to the West Entrance into Dreamville Fest (closer than walking from OFFICIAL PARKING AT NC STATE).

Your DOWNTOWN SHUTTLE pass is good for the entire weekend and covers you for trips to/from the Fest each day (you only need to purchase one pass!)

The DOWNTOWN SHUTTLES will run non-stop continuous service from 10:00am (2 hours before gates officially open each day) until 1:00am (2+ hours after the end of the Festival each night).

3. TAKE AN UBER OR LYFT
Get dropped off at designated drop off / pick up zones, located on either side of Dorothea Dix Park, within very short walking distance of the Dreamville venue entrances! You’ll be able to get picked up from the same locations after the event.

 4. GET DROPPED OFF BY FAMILY / FRIENDS / TAXI
Whether it’s a taxi, your friends, roommates or parents dropping you off - we’ve got you covered!

5. BICYCLE, E-SCOOTER or WALK
Take a stroll in the park! Dorothea Dix Park is gorgeous this time of year!

Whether you’re coming from NC STATE or DOWNTOWN, you can ride your bike to Dorothea Dix Park, however you’ll need to disembark from your bike and lock it up at one of the Bike Parking areas on the outskirts of Dorothea Dix Park, and walk to the Festival Entrances.

There are two designated locations for bike parking:

• • On the corner of Centennial Pkwy and Blair Dr.
  • On the corner of Western Blvd and Hunt Dr.

Electric Scooter operators LIME and SPIN will both have e-scooters available in the greater Raleigh area, during Dreamville Fest weekend.

• • Please refer to the City of Raleigh website for more information on e-Scooters, including hours of operation (6:00am to 11:00pm only, seven days a week) and important safety information to ensure you get where you’re going SAFELY.
