Any guests presenting symptoms will receive a rapid PCR test on-site, administered by Northwell Health. Guests will then be required to either show proof of vaccination or a negative PCR test within the past 72 hours.

The event will serve as a commemoration of the upcoming 20th Anniversary of 9/11. A portion of the proceeds from the festival will be donated to the Feal Good Foundation and LT Michael P. Murphy Navy Seal Museum.

As we approach the 20 year 9/11 Remembrance, it is your energy & empathy that should be embraced & emulated by all. And to be included in the same event with the Michael Murphy Navy Seal Museum is simply humbling.” – John Feal/FealGoodFoundation.
