Evacuation Procedure
At Esperanza Bonanza, we want everyone that comes out to the festival to have an enjoyable experience. However, sometimes
situations arise, and our top priority is the safety of all in attendance. In the event of severe weather or other emergency
situations, the following evacuation procedures are in place:
First, all event spectators will be instructed to leave the festival grounds in an orderly fashion and teams and vendors will be
instructed to occupy their booths. The buses will help take people back to their vehicles, and for those with parking passes that
have parked their personal vehicles in designated areas, the gate that opens up to the service road will be opened to offer an
additional exit and further help traffic flow. Then, security will sweep the festival grounds for any remaining spectators.
At that point, depending on the severity of the situation, it will be at the discretion of the teams and vendors whether to stay with
their booths or leave the grounds. The festival will resume once the reason for the evacuation is passed or resolved as long as it’
s still within the regularly scheduled festival times and dates. However in the extreme event that the festival is cancelled, ONCE
ALL SPECTATORS ARE OFF THE FESTIVAL GROUNDS, we’ll allow teams and vendors to bring in vehicles and trucks to clear out
anything from their booth.
If the Crittenden County Emergency Management Agency (CCEMA) determines that a situation requires a mandatory
evacuation, teams and vendors will not have the option of staying.
If you have questions, contact Esperanza Bonanza President Donny Underwood at 870-636-6896
