Amenities & Policies for Music in the Vineyards 2008     

Minors and Small Children
Due to problems in past years, we do not admit minors to the concerts.  A minor is any person younger than age 21.  This policy applies even when the minor is accompanied by his/her own parent.   This policy also prohibits bringing babies and young children to the concerts.   Please note:  if a person appears to be younger than age 30, he/she will be required to show a valid photo ID.   

Rain Policy
We rarely cancel a concert due to weather.  The band sits in a sheltered area, and we encourage the audience to bring umbrellas.  If it's raining when you arrive, you can wait in your car before you pay to come in.  If it starts raining after the band begins to play, your ticket is usually exchangeable for a pro-rated Raindate Ticket, which is valid for the current and future concert seasons.  Present your admission ticket when you drive out.  We only cancel the concert if it starts raining early, and it's predicted to last.   (No raindate tickets issued after 9:00 pm.  No cash refunds after the concert begins.) 

Congratulatory Announcements
If you are celebrating a special occasion, please inform the bandleader during breaktime (8:30-9:00).  A combined announcement will be made during the second set.

Cigar Smoking
Due to numerous complaints from the audience, cigar smoking is no longer permitted on the grounds.

Sorry, the following activities are not permitted:
Carry-in alcoholic beverages and nonalcoholic look-alikes.
Portable grills and fires.
Torches and lanterns, including those operated by battery.
Food or drink on the dance patios.

Spraying pesticides or pouring melted candle wax on the lawn.  (Please use the wax can at the wine bar.)

Climbing on or over the white wooden fences.
Wine Sales after 9:00.  (Due to PA regulations.)

Also, to be considerate of others, we ask that our patrons refrain from the following activities:
