Parking at the Festival
PARKING AT THE HERNDON FESTIVAL
Parking is very limited around the Herndon Festival site. Last year many cars were towed and the hope is to minimize that this year. Parking is highly discouraged in the Pines Shopping Center located at the intersection of Monroe Street & Elden Street. The best advice is to use the Shuttle Bus Service – park and ride for FREE. There are two shuttle bus pick-up sites one at Worldgate Shopping Center and one at the Herndon High School.
