About the event
Explore a section of the avenue rather than expecting a single enclosed festival site. A purchased wooden pass can receive branded marks at twelve checkpoints; five or more qualify for the festival prize draw after verification. Autumn colour depends on the weather, so golden foliage is not guaranteed for the festival dates.
