The water taxi will take festival goers from Martin Park, where parking is free to Beattie Park across the Rock River. The boat ride costs $2 or $5 will buy a 3-day pass. The Forest City Queen will run all weekend. Friday and Saturday the last rides from the festival will be at 11:45 P.M. On Sunday the last ride will be at 10:15 P.M. Organizers say the boat ride is a safe way to enjoy the river and the weather.

   

 

Rockford Park District Operations Manager said "you don't have to worry about manipulating around the festival grounds you can just park and hop on and we drop you right off at Beattie Park, which is just steps away from a gate to get in."

 

The Rockford Park District hopes to continue the water taxi during next year's festival as well.
