Is Big Island Rendezvous handicapped accessible? Yes! We furnish handicapped accessible minibuses for shuttling from the Freeborn County Fairgrounds. There is no vehicle access to the public during the event, so we run free shuttle buses, including handicapped accessible buses, because we have a number of wheelchair users who attend every year. There is seating available at the event near the stage and food booths. (Benches and picnic tables). There are numerous handicapped accessible restrooms throughout the site. (Porta potties).
