Solid color t-shirt (preferably white or black)

• Participants will receive their String Fest t-shirt at registration. The String Fest t-shirt can easily slip over the solid color t-shirt that the student wears with ease, without needing to change in the bathroom.  

• The t-shirt must remain on the student and visible throughout the entire day of the fest. This is for several reasons:

  • • A way of safely identifying String Fest students amongst the school population during the school day.

    • There will be a lot of pictures taken during the day, and we want them to look uniform.

Long Pants or Jeans

Sneakers or other Comfortable Shoes

Students will NOT be changing dress for the concert.  Concert attire is:

String Fest shirt on Top, Long Pants or Jeans on Bottom
