The Clock Is the Demand Read
The Marigold Project publishes one clock for its Festival of Altars. The festival page reads "Installation begins @ 8am | High Noon ceremony begins @ 12pm | Entertainment begins @ 5 - 9pm". The guidelines page adds two terms: "SET UP 8 am - 2 pm" and "CLEAN UP begins promptly at 10pm".
The published set-up window runs six hours. The noon ceremony to the 5 p.m. entertainment start leaves a five-hour gap. The entertainment window runs four hours. The clear follows one hour later.
Two Windows a Day-Use Product Can Hold
The 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. set-up window is the first daytime block on the record. Altar builders work inside it, and the organiser asks each altar to stand by 2 p.m.
The noon to 5 p.m. gap is the second. The ceremony finishes before the entertainment opens, and the park fills between the two.
Sell daytime inventory into either window, and time the end of it to the 10 p.m. clear. That hour is the published close of the park day.
The Peak Window
Entertainment runs 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. That window is the last published programme block of the day. The band's own tour page carries the same hours for the festival, 5:00PM to 9:00PM.
The organiser publishes no attendance figure and no crowd estimate. The peak reads as a four-hour window.
The Clear
Clean-up begins promptly at 10 p.m. One hour separates the 9 p.m. finish from that deadline. The organiser states that the park and trash collectors fine it for anything left behind or placed in the wrong bin, so the clear carries an enforcement line of its own.
Free Admission, No Alcohol, One Day
The festival FAQ answers the fee question with a flat no: "No, the festival is free and open to the public." The same page calls the event alcohol-free. The guidelines page bars alcohol during the event and labels it noncommercial.
The park day runs once. The organiser states no lodging partner, no room block and no rate.
The Local Cohort
The organisation describes itself as rooted in the Indigenous and Latinx community of San Francisco's Mission District. The park it uses, Potrero Del Sol, also carries the name La Raza Park. The programme is community-built altars, live performances, art stations and ceremonies.
Set the local compression to the clock. Two nights bracket the park day: the working night before the 8 a.m. installation, and the night the clear closes at 10 p.m.
The Edition Date
The organiser's home page carries "November 2nd, 2025 @ 8 AM". The festival page carries "November 2, 2025 @ Potrero Del Sol Park". No page on the site carries 2026. The band's own tour page lists the current edition as Monday, November 2, 5:00PM to 9:00PM, at Potrero Del Sol Park, 2827 Cesar Chavez Street, and prints no year on that line.
November 2, 2025 fell on a Sunday. November 2, 2026 falls on a Monday.
The Revenue Read
Revenue managers take three times off the two pages: an 8 a.m. installation start, a 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. peak window and a 10 p.m. clear. The set-up window and the noon-to-5 gap bracket the daytime blocks.
The record carries no attendance figure, no room block and no rate. The demand read rests on the published clock.
