New Pricing Questions

Who needs a Camping Pass? 
Each person who is staying overnight at the Campground

What if I have a Reserved Utility Site?
Each person staying overnight at your site needs their own Camping Pass, but there is only one add-on fee for the reserved site itself.

Can I get a Utility or Reserved Tent Site?
As always, Utility Sites and Reserved Tent Sites are limited and assigned to returning campers first. All others will be put on a waiting list, and notified in June whether they have been assigned a site. If there is no site available, your Reserved Site fee will be refunded.

Do I have to get my Camping Pass in advance?
You do not HAVE to, but it is recommended. You'll save money and time at check in.

I've been coming and camping at the festival for years. How is this any different? Why make the change?
You're right, for people coming to the Festival and camping all weekend, there's very little change except in what we're calling things. But for the people who are coming for a day and bringing their whole family, it's a huge change! We want and need to attract new people to the Festival because we know that once they attend once, they'll come back year after year.

Parking

Where can I park?

Paid day-parking is available on the grounds. Vehicles may not be left overnight in day-parking.

What if I need handicapped parking?

Handicapped parking with certified tag is available on the festival grounds close to the main stage. Please see our camping page for information about handicapped camping.

How do I get around the grounds?
