Recess at the Lake takes place at the Greenfield Lake Amphitheater, located at:

1941 Amphitheatre Drive, Wilmington, NC 28401.

The main entrance for Recess at the Lake will be through The Gator Garden, located on the left side of the venue. If you're participating in the race, it will begin outside the venue.

Parking at Greenfield Lake Amphitheater is free. The venue recommends parking in the grassy area along Lakeshore Drive between North Carolina Avenue and Honeysuckle Drive, or along permitted street parking on Lakeshore Drive. Please do not park at Elderhaus, as towing is enforced.

If you’re signed up for a class, we recommend arriving a little early to allow time for parking and check-in.

Yes. There is a flat entry fee of $30 to enter through The Gator Garden and access the event grounds.

This fee is waived if:

• You are participating in the race (your race bib serves as admission).

• You are registered for a Recess class (we'll have a guest list at check-in).

Classes hosted by Common Ground, Pulse Pilates, Axis Fitness, BeU, and other partners are free to register for. However, if you do not have a race bib or a Recess class reservation, you will need to pay the entry fee at the door to enter the event.

Your entry fee gives you access to the full Recess at the Lake experience and includes:

• Unlimited participation in classes from Common Ground, beUnlimited, Axis Fitness, and Pulse Pilates (build your own schedule and take as many classes as you'd like throughout the day!)

• Access to our curated lineup of local wellness, fitness, and lifestyle vendors

• Opportunities to connect with and book services from StretchLab

• Access to Irradience's sauna and cold plunge experiences

• Admission to the event grounds and all community activities

Please note: Recess cycling classes require separate registration and payment. However, if you've booked a Recess ride, your event entry fee is already included—no additional admission charge is required.

Whether you're joining for one class or making a full day of it, your entry fee unlocks everything you need to move, connect, recover, and enjoy the day at the lake.

We recommend bringing:

• A water bottle

We'll have water available onsite, and if you're taking a class, we've got you covered:

• Yoga mats will be available for yoga and Pilates participants.

• Cycling shoes will be available for Recess rides.

You're welcome to bring your own mat or cycling shoes if you prefer.
