•Festival food vendors are mostly cash-friendly but lines at the ATM get long — bring cash for faster ordering.
•Go hungry but pace yourself: tasting-style events reward sampling small portions at many stands over filling up at the first one.
•Wine and beer festivals at the shore usually require ID at the gate regardless of age, and many issue tasting wristbands you'll need for every pour.
•Parking in Atlantic City: Metered street parking. Casino parking varies ($5-30). Some casinos validate. Free municipal parking at the State Marina lot (Huron & Baltic).
