This year’s event is FREE to enter, but the pickleball tournament is by paid, advance registration only. The tournament fills quickly, so if you’re interested in competing, register ASAP.

You may park in designated event parking locations on Macy, Holbrook or Farm Roads. Please follow directions from our parking staff and police officers who will help you if you have questions.

Yes! Picks & Pickleball is a super kid-friendly event. The Kids’ Zone will have tons to keep your little ones happy, including crafts, sensory play, guided activities.

Nope, other than water. But don’t worry, we have lots of options for you to enjoy! We’ll have five amazing food trucks onsite and Captain Lawrence will be selling their beer and wine. Food trucks include Brothers Fish & Chips (lobster rolls and fish/chips), Bona Bona Ice Cream, Arthur Ave Wood-Fired Pizza, the Weenie Wagon, and Captain Lawrence (bbq and burgers).

Yes! You may bring a beach blanket and low-back lawn chair to relax and enjoy the music. There will be a designated chair/blanket area set back a bit from the stage. We ask that you be considerate of your fellow festivalgoers and bring chairs that aren’t super tall so that you don’t obstruct people’s views.

The tournament will be full so there will be no walk-in’s. We also recommend you register in advance for the instructional clinics as those will fill quickly as well. See the pickleball page for registration links and more details.

Please don’t bring outside food, beverages other than water, pop-up tents, tall chairs that block others’ views, and common sense here: any type of weapon or item that could hurt other people or damage the park. You will be asked to take any prohibited item back to your car, so save yourself the time and trouble and leave it at home!

Heck yes! The tournament fills quickly. Register here.

In the event of stormy weather, the rain date for 2024’s Picks & Pickleball is Sunday, June 23. The determination will be made by Friday, June 21.
