Getting There
In case your GPS is acting funky, 100 Clinton St. is the battleship’s entrance. However, the correct entrance is Battleship Place for festival attendees. There is a secured parking lot available within walking distance.
Lodging
Organizers recommend any hotel in Philadelphia. If you’re flying in for the festival, airport hotels are usually the cheapest and are conveniently located close to the venue.
