Campgrounds & Camping FAQ

Will the entrance to the campgrounds be open 24 hours?

YES.

Can we leave and re-enter?

Please see the Re-entry Policy.

What will you be providing at the campgrounds?

There will be bathrooms, hand wash stations, and potable water. A general store will be selling sundries (personal hygiene products, batteries, film, disposable cameras, ice, beer etc...) Vendors will be selling a variety of reasonably priced foods, beverages and snacks. There will be pay telephones and ATM's, but we still recommend that you bring enough cash for your stay to avoid long lines or waiting for the machine to be serviced. Please bring enough money for any additional expenses you may have.

What emergency services will be available on site? What should I do if I need emergency assistance (medical, police, towing, locksmith, etc.)?

There will be emergency medical personnel and Security personnel onsite
around the clock. If you need EMERGENCY medical or police attention, find a staff person with a radio, go to an information tent, medical tent, or tell one of the mounted security personnel. At the end of the weekend, there will be tow trucks patrolling the parking areas for those who need them, but there could be a long wait for their services. Make sure your lights and radio are turned off when you park so you don't drain your battery!  Try not to lose your car keys or lock them in your car. Also, please help us keep the parking areas clear of discarded bottles and other hazards - the tires you save could be your own!

Where should I go if I lose my keys, my wallet or my friends?

Lost and found will be located at the information tents. If you lose
something, or someone, check there. If it or they are not there the first time, check again later. If you find something that needs to be returned to its owner, please drop it off at an info tent. It is a good idea to bring an extra set of keys. Obtain your key code before you leave home and bring it with you. This will cut down on the time it takes for the locksmith to duplicate your key if you lose it.

What will we be allowed to bring into the campgrounds? (Coolers, food, beer, kegs, stoves, etc.)

You can bring coolers with a consumable amount of provisions into the
camping area; however, they cannot be brought into the Centeroo / concert field.  SMALL grills and camping stoves will be allowed.  No kegs, No pig roasts, no 55-gallon drums!   
 
NO OPEN FIRES WILL BE PERMITTED.
 
PLEASE follow these instructions if you are planning on using a grill. You can use gas/propane fuel sources or charcoal, but scavenging for wood on site will NOT be permitted. The fire must be entirely contained and off the ground. Air quality is a concern. Please keep the fires as small as possible and extinguish them as soon as you are finished. When you are done cooking with charcoal, put it out with water before going into the show or going to sleep or leaving your camp, rather than letting it burn out over time. In any case, DO NOT DUMP COALS ON THE GROUND (ever) or in the trash until they are entirely cool. After the coals are COMPLETELY DEAD, dispose of them properly as garbage.
