Jubilee Details

Jubilee Location

Jubilee is located on Sam Yoder's Concert Farm in Houston, Delaware between Routes 13 & 113. 


Alcoholic Beverages & Drugs

These are absolutely not permitted on the Jubilee grounds and those found under the influence of, or in possession of such will be escorted off the property, and or, turned over to the law enforcement officials.


Blanket Policy

Blankets may not be used to stake a claim like the "Oklahoma Land Rush". Blankets may not be left in the audience areas unattended. If you must use the facilities or need to leave your blanket behind for any reason, someone must remain with your blanket at all times. Unattended blankets will be removed and taken to the lost and found. No stakes are permitted in the arena area to secure blankets.

Chairs will be allowed in the main area only to the rear of the mega-trons. The front of the mega-trons is reserved for blankets only.

Never, under any circumstances block the aisle or rush the stage. We need your help in establishing an "honor system" regarding seating.

* Church youth leaders should make sure that their group abides by this policy. With the Jumbotrons, you actually see better at a distance. *(Jubilee reserves the right to remove chronic offenders)


Booths, Books & Music

Jubilee has partnered with The Gospel Shop Christian Bookstore to provide a great selection of all the latest Christian tapes and CD's. In addition, there will be many booths featuring a wide variety of Christian oriented materials and craft items. Many organizations such as ARA (American Retirement Assistance Corporation) will have informational booths. If you or your organization would like to reserve a booth, contact: Jubilee, P.O. Box 880, Millsboro, DE  19966 or call (302) 228-9841.


Cameras

Regular cameras and video cameras are permitted at Jubilee. However, any professional camera equipment (including tripods, cameras with removable lenses, etc) is not. Photos must be taken from where ever you will be standing/sitting during the performances... no special passes will be issued. Also, video-taping of an entire performance is prohibited to protect certain rights. Thank you for your cooperation.


Camping Facilities

Camping is available FREE to all total-event ticket holders on a first come, first serve basis for individuals or groups; however, only pre-registered groups (20 or more adults), registering together on the same form for all four days of the festival, will be pre-assigned a location. Individuals will be assigned a location when they arrive at the festival. The gates for Jubilee open on Thursday, and close on Sunday.

When you arrive, please be prepared to wait in line up to several hours before being assigned a campsite. It would be a very good idea to plan a restroom stop before arriving at Jubilee. If you find yourself in line, please be patient and remain in your vehicle as you make your way through the gates.

Jubilee is an outdoor event and everyone should come with some type of shelter in case of rain. No one will be allowed on the premises before Thursday at 3 p.m. without permission from the Jubilee management (unless serving on staff). Shower and restroom facilities are available. Water is also available on the premises for drinking and wash basins. There are no individual electric or water hookups for campers, however there is a sewage dumping facility for holding tanks.


Campfires

Due to local fire code, individual campfires are prohibited.

Propane and/or charcoal grills are acceptable for preparation of meals.


Children

Lost children should be taken to the Lost and Found trailer, located by the Main Office trailer. Please keep children beside you at all times when groups are on stage. Children must be accompanied by at least one adult at all times. Never let a child sleep on the ground while music groups are on stage... especially at night!


Curfew

After midnight please be quiet. Don't "bless" others with loud singing or talking. If asked by someone to "quiet down," please respond graciously. Boom boxes are to be turned off in the camping areas by 11:00 pm.


Dress Code

Leaders, Chaperons and Parents: We need your help in enforcing this policy - our staff cannot do it alone! MODESTY is the key word. While the style and fashion these days seems to be "less is best," we do not want to be guilty of causing another person to stumble. Girls: Bathing suits are NOT permitted, except in the showers. Clothes must be put on over your bathing suit for the walk back to your campsite from the showers. Tank tops are fine but bellies must be covered (even though the fashion now is to show it off). Short pants and/or skirts need to be long enough and shirts big enough. Guys are not exempt from the dress code: SHIRTS (and shoes) MUST be worn by all at all times. And PLEASE - no low riders!!!


Fireworks

No personal fireworks may be brought onto the grounds.

Opinions

Opinions expressed by program participants do not necessarily reflect those of Jubilee and its staff.


Paging

Public paging is strictly limited to extreme emergencies. Contact the festival office. If you would like to get a message to someone on site and it is not an emergency, we will take the message and post it on our message board outside of the Main Office trailer. It is the responsibility of the attendees to check the board each day if they think someone may try to get in contact with them while they are on site at Jubilee.


Parking & Transportation

A FREE parking space is available for you to park your cars, buses and recreational vehicles. Please follow the instructions of the parking attendants by parking where they direct you. You can walk anywhere on the grounds so please drive your car only when arriving or leaving. When you arrive, if you find yourself in line, please be patient and remain in your vehicle as you make your way through the gates. Let's be a good witness to the neighbors by picking up any litter, and by staying off their private property. Thanks for your help.


Pets

Pets are not allowed on the festival grounds. Including parking and camping areas. Please make arrangements with a kennel (or family member) to care for your pet while you are at the Festival.


Smoking

Smoking is not allowed in the public areas of the festival. If you need to smoke, please limit this to your own campsite, designated areas or off festival grounds.


Tarps & Umbrellas

Tarps may be  used for shade, however, they must not block the view of others. Be prepared to remove your tarp if it bothers other people.


T-shirts, etc.

Official Jubilee! merchandise can be purchased at The Gospel Shop. These are very high quality items and include several different styles of T-shirts, sweatshirts, golf shirts, hats, bumper stickers, and more.


Toilets

Toilet facilities are placed throughout the grounds. Please notify a staff member if they need servicing. We need everyone's cooperation in keeping these facilities as clean as possible. It only takes one careless person to make things really gross. Toilet and shower facilities accessible to wheelchairs are available.


Traffic Flow

Jubilee has gone to great lengths to provide everything you will need on the festival grounds. Do not drive your car unless it is an emergency. When walking, please clear the road as soon as a vehicle approaches. Do not walk in the middle of the road. Unnecessary driving is not only unsafe, but it is also stirs up a lot of dust.


Volunteers

It takes over 1000 dedicated staff volunteers to make the Jubilee Festival run smoothly. If you are interested in becoming a part of the Jubilee staff and are willing to work four and one half hours per day, please go to the staff office located in a trailer near the main arena.


What To Bring

Your ticket, pen and notebook, sleeping bag, tent or camper, flashlight, cooking supplies, buckets, BIBLE, wash basin, umbrella, toothpaste, soap, towels, insect repellent, sun block and/or tanning lotion, money, sunglasses, hat, sweater, and blanket.


Wristbands

Please keep your wristband on your wrist during the entire time of the festival. You will need this to enter the festival grounds. This rule is extremely important for public safety.


First Aid Center

A first aid center will be on the site. If you have special medical needs, please register at the medical center upon arrival.

Doctors and nurses are greatly needed as volunteers to serve four hours per day during the event. Please call (302) 858-7852 if you are able to serve.

The festival is a unique situation where a complete village emerges over night. As in any small village there are many medical needs that arise. Just as you would not run to the local hospital Emergency Room for every little problem, please use the same discretion in deciding to come to the First Aid station.

Guidelines For Using The First Aid Station

When you arrive at the First Aid station, you will be required to sign a "Consent To Treat" form. You must be 18 years old to sign for yourself. If you are not 18yrs or older, please bring an adult with you. NO ONE UNDER 18 WILL BE TREATED WITHOUT ADULT PERMISSION.

If the First Aid station is busy, and your complaint is minor, you may be asked to wait. Please be patient, we may have some serious injuries or illness to care for. Despite the excellent care of our trained people, it may still be necessary for you to be treated in the local hospital Emergency Room. If this is the case you are responsible for supplying insurance information. It is also your responsibility, not the festival staff's, to provide transportation to the hospital unless the injury dictates an ambulance. You will also be responsible to provide your own transportation back to Jubilee from the Hospital.

Note concerning electric wheelchairs: Due to the limited amount of space in our First Aid compound we are unable to re-charge wheelchairs. If you have a wheelchair that will need to be re-charged you should provide your own generator. In an emergency situation, the Main Office may be able to assist you.

To Avoid Visiting Our First Aid Station, Please Follow These Suggestions

  • Drink plenty of fluids.
  • Be reasonable about the amount of time spent in the sun.
