What is Springfest?
Springfest is the Town of Ocean City’s formal launch of the Summer Season. It’s a 4 day live music, food, and arts event at the inlet in Ocean City.
Where can I park for Springfest?
The best place to park is at your hotel. Then, just take the Ocean City Beach Bus down Coastal Highway to the Inlet. If you are driving into Ocean City for the day and don’t have a hotel where you can leave your car, we recommend parking at the West Ocean City Park & Ride and take the shuttle from there. There is some metered street parking downtown, but it fills up fast. You can also park at the Convention Center and take the bus.
Are the concerts free at Springfest?
The Town of Ocean City has two stages set up for free concerts throughout Springfest. There are also three headline concerts which are ticketed. You can see the headline concerts here. You can also see the OceanCity.com Springfest Guide with the free concerts listed here.
If I bought a handicap ticket for the headline concert, what does that mean?
If you bought a handicap ticket to one of the headline events that means that your ticket is in one of the handicap zones at the concert. There, everybody has a seat, but the seats can be removed if you prefer to sit in your own chair or wheelchair.
