Planet Entertainment and Superfly Presents, in
association with San Francisco’s Recreation and
Park Department and the City of San Francisco
are producing the 3rd Annual Outside Lands Music & Arts
Festival in Golden Gate Park (Polo Field, Speedway,
Marx & Lindley Meadows) on Saturday, August
14th & Sunday, August 15th, 2010. This concert
event helps benefit Golden Gate Park with a considerable
portion of ticket sales going directly to Rec & Park.
We are committed to mitigating the impact of
the event in your neighborhood and this letter
is to help serve purpose to that commitment.
Community Hotline:
Again this year, we will have a Community Hotline
to respond to any issues that may affect you
during the festival. The festival hotline
will be available from 10:00am – 11:00PM on
the festival days.
The hotline number is 415-752-2098.
Alternative Means of Transportation:
To help alleviate vehicle congestion in your
neighborhood, we are strongly encouraging patrons
to take alternative means of transportation
to the festival, including MUNI, Bauers shuttles,
biking or walking.
Tow Trucks/Parking Control Officers:
We will have 2 dedicated tow trucks and 1 Parking
Control Officer on each side of the Park to
quickly respond to any blocked driveways or
any other parking issues related to the Festival.

open to the public as long as possible. The
determination to close areas of the park is
based on security and safety concerns for both
the public and working personnel.

going up at 8:00am Saturday, August 7.

public. The upper track will remain open
and all normal access points into the area
will remain open through dusk on Sunday,

Beginning Monday, August 9 at 6:00am
we will close the west portion of the upper
track. We will keep an open path for the
public to traverse between Little Speedway

the upper track on the north and south
sides of the Polo Field.
From Tuesday, August 10 at 8:00pm until
