While this is NOT a kid-centric event, kids are allowed at the Carnival if they are fully vaccinated on Dec. 4, 2021. Just as with any other guests, kids will also be required to provide proof of vaccination to enter. See the Covid FAQ section for more details. Please also note that this is an event where alcohol is being served. An accompanying adult must be responsible for supervising young children at all times during the event!

We are committed to following the most up-to-date CDC, state, and local guidance for

COVID-19. To maintain a safe event spaces for us all, we have adopted the following policies:

• Proof of vaccination and a valid ID is required. We will be checking this at the door. All ticket holders are required to show proof of full COVID vaccination. This means that ticket holders have received their final vaccination dose of either the two-dose regimen of the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines or one dose of Johnson & Johnson at least 14 days before Dec. 4, 2021. A negative covid test will not be accepted for entry.
• We ask screening questions and check every guest’s temperature with a touchless thermometer when you check-in. Guests presenting a fever or any Covid-like symptoms will not be allowed in.
• All guests are required to wear a mask when indoors except for when eating, drinking or getting your photo taken at one of the photo stations. We also recommend that you wear a mask while outdoors, especially if keeping a distance of six feet is not possible.
• Our indoor capacity is limited to 50% or less to enable distancing.

The Carnival is hosted by Crag Law Center with the following participating non-profits: Bark, OPAL Environmental Justice, Verde, Columbia Rivkerkeeper and Friends of the Gorge.

Your best bet is to shoot an email to the non-profit you donated to and ask for your Carnival ticket code. You can also show us your G!G donation receipt to buy a ticket at the door (however, we highly recommend getting tickets in advance due to the limited capacity of the event space during Covid).

Because of Covid precautions, we are limiting the number of people we will allow into the Carnival. You can show up, but you’ll risk being that person who comes to an awesome show and has to hang out outside because it’s sold out. Do you want to be that person?

A basic $10 ticket (or $10 Give!Guide donation to one of the participating non-profits) gets you into the Carnival, which will feature all kinds of entertainment and games, photo booths and stations and a dance party with DJ Cooky Parker. You can earn up to 10 Carnival game tokens (valued at $5 each) by donating more! Carnival game tokens will be available for purchase and = donations to the non-profits hosting the games. Drink tickets will also be for sale, good for a variety of beverages.

Thanks for your generous support! You are welcome to redeem your donation dollars for Carnival game tokens at any of our cashier stations at the event. Each $5 over the $10 basic entry fee earns you 1 Carnival game token up to a max of 10 tokens. Just show your Give!Guide receipt and we’ll hook you up!

Yes! Food and drink will be available for purchase at the Carnival – and you can even go ahead and buy meal and drink tickets online when you sign up!

We are excited to have Tamale Boy join us with their food truck, which will be parked just outside the door near a covered open air patio for safe, distanced munching!

We will also have a bar at the event serving up a variety of libations including beverages provided by our amazing sponsors: Portland Syrups (mocktails!), Iggy’s Kombucha, Ecliptic Brewing Beer, Modern Times Brewing, Two Towns Cider, New Deal Vodka, Raptor Ridge Wine and Interrobang Vermouth.

Yes! Your ticket is a donation and so are all the carnival tokens you buy to play games! The drink and meal tickets help us cover the cost of that stuff you are slurping down. So feel free to make extra donations to the participating non-profits and don’t forget to tip Tamale Boy and your lovely bartenders!

Yes! For each Carnival game token you play, you will receive a prize ticket that you can enter in our prize drawing. Depending on the game, you can also win additional prize tokens to enter in the drawing. We will draw the prizes between 8:30 – 9:00 PM. Winners must be present (or have a representative present) to claim prizes.

You win the honor of being the most stylin’ Eco Carny in Portland, plus you make it rain $$$ for your chosen non-profit organization with all those votes you got. How awesome is that? We know, it can’t be beat! Even so, we’ll also bestow upon you some amazing prizes worthy of your charisma and style.
