“the river is truly a beautiful spot to hear and see such great entertainment” K.W. Roseville, Ca
There are three campgrounds to choose from when purchasing a festival ticket that includes camping or camping/river trip. Each campground will host its own musical performances (see schedule), and will be the launch site of a Friday River Trip (see river rafting). Free shuttles from all campgrounds will run from 9:30 A.M. to 7:00 P.M. to/from the main stage on Saturday and Sunday. The shuttles are only minutes long. All campers are invited to join us for a naturalist guided 3 hour riverfront hike (good walking shoes recommended) in the beautiful Cronin Ranch. The meeting point is just minutes from the campground. This spectacular riverfront hike is mostly level, and will feature live music at the turning point. Your campground host will have all details.
All camping tickets are for Friday and Saturday nights, there is no one-night camping ticket options..sorry! To add a Thursday or Sunday night camping contact the campground direct. Check in begins on Friday at 9:30 A.M. Check-out is Sunday after the final main stage performances. Here are your campground choices:
