If You Go

The Mill Valley Fall Arts Festival takes place Saturday and Sunday, September 14 and 15, 2024 from 10 am–5 pm. General admission $20 advance, $25 at the gate; seniors $15/$18. Kids, teachers, students, and active duty military with ID are admitted free. Purchase tickets here. Bicyclists: park your bike with MCBC at the Depot downtown and get $5 off at the gate.

Old Mill Park is located at Throckmorton Avenue and Cascade Drive in Mill Valley. Due to limited parking in the area there will be continuous shuttle bus service to and from the festival all weekend, starting at 9:30 am each day, with the last bus leaving Old Mill Park at 6 pm. Shuttle buses depart from Tamalpais High School and serve two routes: one along Miller Avenue and one that follows East Blithedale Avenue. Bike parking is available across the street from the park at the Old Mill School playground.
