If you have children with you or enjoy quiet at the festival you may want to consider camping in the family/quiet camping area. We have two of those on site and they both contain tent and vehicle camping. Ask the parking crew where this is upon arrival.
Early Camping / Set-up
We allow people to begin camping or set up camp beginning the Saturday before the festival. There is a $10 early set-up fee. Early Vehicle or RV Camping is $10 per day.
If you plan to set up early or camp early, please pay your fee and pick up your camping passes upon entry to the grounds . Do not set up without receiving a camping pass! You may set up as much as you want, but you cannot rope off extra space to be used later.
