Get there early. The lines get long and area gets crowded.
Don't mean to be a party pooper but we were SO disappointed with this "festival" when we went last year.
It just felt *so* commercial - there was no 'celebration' as such, simply a load of stalls where you could redeem your 6 'tastings'. And much of it was v poor value - like the Safeway stall that was selling individual cookies out of a cartoon as one of the tastings (6 for $10 don't forget). Not hand made or anything, just individual cookies out of the package. Pathetic!
