    Campers who have pre-purchased tickets and camping passes for the 2015 AmeriServ Flood City Music Festival should drive to the Walnut Street Bridge (see 2015 festival grounds map) and present their camping pass to the security guard stationed at the bridge. Campers will then advance down Walnut Street where they can temporarily park their cars in front of the Johnstown Train Station. Campers should enter the Johnstown Train Station and check-in so that their tickets may be scanned and wrist bands can be applied. They will then be directed to advance their cars down Walnut Street and park in the Johnstown Hydraulics lot (adjacent to Peoples Natural Gas Park). Campers can then transport their gear across Iron Street (very short distance) directly into the campground at Peoples Natural Gas Park.

    RVs should follow the same process listed above. However, after checking in at the Johnstown Train Station, RVs will be directed to park in the Caboose lot adjacent to the Johnstown Train Station.

    Anyone who has NOT pre-purchased a camping pass or RV parking pass may also enter festival grounds via the Walnut Street Bridge. Please inform the security guard at the bridge that you wish to purchase a camping pass or RV pass. You will then be directed to check-in at Johnstown Train Station, where you can purchase your passes/tickets.

    See you at the festival!
