AMF RESIDENCY GUIDELINES

Housing is provided at the Colby College campus dormitory. Participants are welcome to bring their own vehicles to explore the state of Maine, which is known for its beautiful surroundings, food, and attractions.

The residential facilities consist primarily of double-room accommodations. A finite number of single rooms may be assigned to participants, but are not guaranteed.

AMF cannot provide housing in the dormitory or elsewhere for anyone other than AMF participants, including spouses or partners. Housing preparations should be made in advance on behalf of all friends or relatives should they chose to attend the festival. For a list of nearby accommodations, please click here.
