Food & Drinks
What does it mean that the bars are "cashless"?
This year we’ve added the convenience of FastBar, a cashless payment system that helps you get drinks quicker. When you arrive onsite, you’ll receive a wristband (the wristband is FREE and is branded with the Wild Hare Music Fest logo…an extra memento from the festival) that you connect with your credit card. This secure transaction at the bar takes seconds! You simply tap your wristband to the FastBar reader to pay and, at the end of the event, your tab is automatically closed (including tip) and a receipt is sent to you. Fastbar is the only payment that will be accepted at all bars and the official festival merch booth. Register for your Wild Hare Music Fest FastBar wristband HERE.
NOTE: Independent vendors and food carts are not on the Fastbar system and will accept cash and credit card payments.
What types of food will be available for purchase?
There will be a variety of independent food vendors on site, including brunch on Saturday mornings (including a crepe cart) at 9am for overnight attendees. All independent vendors accept cash and credit card payment.

Brunch tickets are available for $15 in advance.

What's the alcohol policy for this all ages event?
In order to prevent underage access to alcohol, we will be providing 21+ wristbands. Any minors found in possession of alcohol will lose their credentials and be asked to leave the festival grounds. Any adult providing alcohol to minors will also lose their credentials and be asked to leave the festival grounds. This policy will be enforced across the entire festival grounds.

General Event Info

Are animals allowed at Wild Hare Country Festival?
Can I Get to WILD HARE MUSIC FEST via a Rideshare Service?
Absolutely and we highly encourage it, especially if you’re not staying overnight and plan to have an adult beverage or two. Please enter 888 NE 4th Ave, Canby, OR 97013 (The Canby Historical Society) as your pick-up/drop-off point. It’s midpoint between highway 99E and the fairgrounds entrance…a reasonable distance away from festival activity that allows drivers to quickly get in and out as well as making it easier for you to locate your ride and your ride to locate you.
Is there any Flag, Sign, Decoration policy in the overnight or venue areas?
- No political signs or paraphernalia. We’re here to share a common experience…the music!
- No flags, flag poles, extendable poles or anything that can poke, stab or fall causing injury
- No Inflatables.
- NO hate speech, negativity or illegal activities.
- Signs or decorations may be used to decorate reserved/claimed spaces (tent camp & RV), but cannot be hung or displayed on any fences or structures that are part of the fairgrounds.
Security reserves the right to deny entry to signs or decorations they deem unacceptable.
