Weather at the Pleasantville Music Festival

The Festival happens rain or shine, though we will not operate in dangerous conditions (lightning, high winds, etc). If threats like that are imminent, we may need to suspend the performances and evacuate the field until the weather improves. If conditions improve, we’ll restart the music.

If we need to suspend the program, you must stow tents and leave the field. Note that tents are NOT considered safe haven in a lightning storm and cannot be used for shelter. People should return to their cars, take buses back to Pace, or seek shelter in the downtown neighborhood.

In case we have plain old rain, we’ve added some extra tents to help keep people out of the elements. If weather issues arise, we will communicate from the stages--and via social media as we get information.
