FAQs

Do I need to have a cabana or fire pit reservation to enjoy the event?
Not at all. There is plenty of lawn space at the event, so bring some blankets or some lawn chairs and enjoy.

How many does a cabana fit?
The cabanas fit up to four people comfortably. There will be a blanket provided with the cabana as well.

Do we need to bring anything for the Fire Pit?
No you do not. Everything will be provided for the fire pits and they will have a staff member of The Presidio Trust to light the pits at around sunset.

Can we make s’mores?
Unfortunately, they do not allow people to roast marshmallows through the fire pits provided, so no s’mores please.
