Tent Camping at Hinterland is for all who bring their own tent and want to camp in a space free of all cars to be closer to their neighbors! Located on the West side of the grounds closest to the Campfire Stage, Tent Camping offers open-field, unmarked campsites. Camping is available on a first-come, first-serve basis, requiring campers to walk in with their gear.

Each Tent Camping ticket is sold per tent and includes one tent tag, which must be visibly displayed at all times. Festival admission tickets are required for all campers, and each vehicle must have a parking pass if arriving by car.

Each tent can accommodate up to eight people; groups exceeding this size will need to purchase an additional Tent Camping ticket. Canopy tents are permitted for shade but cannot be used as primary sleeping quarters. 

‍Tent Camping Parking is sold separately ($70), and is the closest parking lot to Tent Camping. Vehicle re-entry to the parking lot is allowed during daylight hours only, providing flexibility for campers. A gear drop-off/pick-up zone is available during specified hours.

ADA Tent Camping is available for guests with disabilities. To camp in this area, you must have a DMV-issued disabled persons parking placard or license plate and purchase an ADA Tent Camping pass. There is a fixed amount of ADA tent camping spots in this area, so please do not purchase this pass if you do not need it on account of a disability.

Car Camping at Hinterland lets you enjoy the convenience of camping right next to your vehicle, providing easy access to your gear and a comfortable festival experience. 

‍Each Car Camping ticket includes one vehicle sticker for entry and camping in a 20’ x 20’ site for any group size. All campers must have a festival admission ticket, and every campsite must contain a vehicle with the sticker visibly displayed at all times. Passenger cars, trucks, and vans are allowed, but RVs and fuel generators are not permitted. Here's what we consider an RV.

Campsites are assigned upon arrival on a first-come, first-serve basis, so plan to arrive together if you wish to camp near friends. Only one vehicle is allowed per site, and everything—vehicle, tents, and camping gear—must fit within your designated space. No re-entry is allowed for vehicles once they exit the campground.

Car Camping passes are sold separately from festival admission tickets.

Choose between the Powered RV Campground ($1,010) with 50-amp hookups or the Non-Powered RV Campground ($650), both offering 20’ x 40’ campsites designed to accommodate your RV and camping setup. Here's what we consider an RV.

Each RV Camping ticket includes one RV sticker for entry, and all RVs must display their sticker at all times. All campers must have a festival admission ticket, and each campsite must contain an RV. Generators are permitted, but there are no water or sewage hookups available. Additional parking for extra vehicles can be purchased separately for the Tent Camping Parking Lot which is in close proximity to the RV campground.

Campsites are assigned on a first-come, first-serve basis upon arrival. If you want to camp near friends, be sure to arrive together. Each site allows cars, tents, slides, and awnings, provided everything fits within the designated 20’ x 40’ space. For Powered RV Campground guests, 50-amp power is available; bring your own adapter if your RV uses a 30-amp connection. Please note that RV deliveries are not permitted, and no re-entry is allowed for RVs once they exit the campground.

RV Camping passes are sold separately from festival admission tickets and are available in limited quantities. Book early to secure your spot in either the Powered or Non-Powered RV Campground.
