Sunday is "Family Day" at the vibes!!
Kids 15 & Under are Free; Connecticut Residents, Veterans &
Active Military Receive Half Price Tickets ($20)
Sunday is “Family Day” at the Gathering of the Vibes,
allowing families to attend the festival at a significantly reduced
ticket price. Available only at the gate, kids 15 & under are free
and all Connecticut residents and members of our military showing a
photo ID will gain entrance admitted for $20. Family Day offers the
ideal compromise between children’s need to have fun and parents’ desire
to watch some music and catch up with old friends.
Gathering
of the Vibes, the Northeast’s premier camping, music & arts
celebration, remains a pioneer in creating a truly family friendly
festival experience. Last year, Vibes hosted 700 families & their
kids – 1,800 children under the age of 15 were in attendance. This
unique “community” experience is what ultimately separates Gathering of
the Vibes from all other music festivals, using music to bring
generations together.
Kids Corner & Teen Scene
Celebrating its 13th
installment at the festival, Kid’s Corner, led by Gabrielle Fugere and
Andy "The Music Man" Morse, is a clean, safe, fun, and exciting place
for younger children. Kids Corner & Teen Scene is located in a
shaded, tree lined area with plenty of space for having fun, with the
Family Camping area situated nearby. For info on Kids Corner, Teen
Scene, and families at the Vibes, check out: http://gatheringofthevibes. com/kids-families-2.
Sunday festivities kick off with the World Peace Prayer and Flag Ceremony (www.worldpeace.org),
where children who have created special puppets at the Kids Corner lead
a Mardi Gras parade to the Main Stage, where every country on Earth is
recognized in a group prayer. This prayer, “May Peace Prevail on Earth,”
is guided by 1960’s icon Wavy Gravy alongside James Dugan of The World Peace Prayer Society.
Gathering
of the Vibes welcomed over 20,000 fans per day last year, despite
record-breaking heat. With more than 160,000 Facebook fans, the festival
continues to attract a diverse, multigenerational audience,
affectionately known as the ‘Vibe Tribe.’ A full artist lineup and
ticket details for this year’s four-day extravaganza is available at http://www.GOVIBES.com.
Seaside
Park is easily accessible by public transportation and just 50 miles
from Manhattan. Fans traveling from NYC and Long Island may take Metro
North or the Port Jefferson Ferry. Shuttle bus service will transport
festival attendees to and from the venue, local area hotels, the ferry,
train, and bus stations.
