FIRE SAFETY REQUIREMENTS / TO ALL EXHIBITORS AND CONCESSIONAIRES

 

The City of Indio Fire Services/Riverside County Fire Department would like to welcome you as participants to the Coachella Music Festival & Stagecoach Music Festival.  We hope your stay in Indio will be a pleasant one.

The City of Indio Fire Services/Riverside County Fire Department will conduct fire inspections for all concessions, and enforce fire protection standards for the Festival.  Inspections will consist of certifying that all participants in the Festival have met the required standards.  All concessions and exhibits will be inspected on or before opening day.  Those exhibits and concessions, which do not meet the minimum fire safety standards on the day of inspection, will be required to comply prior to conducting business.

The following is a list of the most common fire safety violations that the fire inspectors will be checking for:

1. Minimum of one (1) fire extinguisher with a minimum rating of 2A10BC, with a California State Fire Marshal approved service tag that reflects a current inspection date, shall be required for each concession using any type of open flame device.  The inspection date shall be within the last twelve months.
2. Multi-plug connections, frayed/broken electrical extension cords, or cords with less than 12-gage wiring are prohibited.
3. All L.P.G. tanks (empty or full) shall be secured with a small chain or other approved device and kept a safe distance from open flame.  L.P.G. tanks can be placed into plastic milk crates for protection.
4. Cooking that requires the use of a deep fat fryer(s) shall provide a minimum of one Class K portable fire extinguisher. Class K extinguisher shall be a minimum of 1.5 gallon in capacity.
5. No portable generators will be allowed.  All power needed for your booth shall be provided by the event electrical contractor. 
6. Outdoor cooking that produces sparks or grease-laden vapors shall not be performed inside the booths.
7. All cooking devices shall be in good working condition. All cooking equipment shall be restricted to UL approved commercial cooking appliances only.
8. All cooking devices shall be on a flat stable surface.
9. If wood, charcoal or any other type of approved solid burning material is utilized, the material shall be stored away from any combustible material and usage shall be confined to a cooking device designed for such use/material. All hot material shall be disposed of in a proper container designed for the hot material. Hot material shall not be stored near combustible material. There shall be a method in place to prevent any combustible material from coming in direct contact with the discarded hot material.
10. Portable vendor carts shall be prohibited from the use of any combustible liquid or gas fuel for the purpose of providing lighting to said carts.

Please remember that the City of Indio Fire Services/Riverside County Fire Department’s primary concern is your safety.  If these fire safety rules are followed we should have a safe and enjoyable Music Festival.  If you have any questions, please call the Indio Fire Prevention office at [phone].

What exactly is being judged live and what criteria is used.

I will write a full blog post on the LIVE judging 

Teams will be scored based on a two minute interaction with the judges 

On Taste of BBQ, Presentation both oral and physical 

Our Goal is to find the Stagecoach Taste of BBQ Champion 

with three scores 

1 Overall finish in the IBCA blind box

2 Overall Best Booth 

3 Overall in the LIVE

the three are added together, low score wins 

example IBCA 1st over all 1 point, Booth 10th overall, Live 27th 

example team score 38

TEAMS LIST 

Stagecoach is a adventure, half the process is getting there.

Just so you understand a little of the how it comes together….

Goldenvoice is actively selling the space within the polo grounds all year 

and as we get closer to the festivals date this speeds up 

Months ago you were told we were returning to the Terrace area 

and as the map was more and more defined it became obvious

the contest would need to be in two rows of teams as it has been in the past.

Upside is we will be able to enjoy the 20X50 spaces like 2013

Downside half the teams will not have public frontage and will not

be able to compete in LIVE judging 

Questions just ask here please 

I will be talking to all of you this month

Hi thom,

I was under the empression that for the taste of BBQ we could serve the 4 comp meats every day plus our one none comp item every day and chili on sunday. that is not what I am reading above. Also our non comp items listed are not what we asked for.

I will edit for clarity
If every team "got what they asked for" we would have too many selling the same items
