The Venue

The Bowl

A natural mountain amphitheater and the festival’s Main Stage. The hillside is your viewing deck, and the bowl gives the low end somewhere to sit — full PA, stage lighting, LED video wall, and lasers.

The K Lodge

The heated late-night room. When the Bowl goes quiet at midnight, the K Lodge offers a comfortable indoor environment as mountain temperatures drop, with lower volume and lower light — no set times, no billing, just whoever is still going.

The Dome

Our 24-foot geodesic dome returns as a sensory lounge inside the K Lodge afters area. Seating, soft textures, and low light — somewhere to sit down without leaving the party.

The Land

640 private acres of pine, granite, and open sky at roughly 6,500 feet. Camping spreads across the property, and everything — stages, showers, your tent — is walkable.

🌄 How a Day Runs

Music builds in the Bowl through the afternoon and evening. At midnight the outdoor sound stops and everything moves indoors to the heated K Lodge, a comfortable environment when temperatures drop, where it runs lower and looser until sunrise.

👥 Small on Purpose

350 people across 640 acres. One shared camp, no VIP section, no roped-off area for anyone. You will start recognizing faces by the second day.

🍳 Bring Your Own

BYOB — there is no bar and no alcohol sold on site. Bring your own food, and a propane stove if you cook. Open fires, campfires, smoking of any kind (including tobacco or cannabis), and vaping of any kind are not permitted anywhere on the property. Every fire-safety or smoking violation will be taken extremely seriously.

💸 Funded by Everyone Here

No investors and no organizer profit. The entire budget is public, down to what the venue costs and what each artist is paid. See the numbers.

🚗 The Drive

Highway 38 above Redlands, roughly two hours from Los Angeles or Orange County. Paved the whole way, but a real mountain road — take it slow.

📶 Service on the Way Up

An AT&T tower on the property means service at camp is good, best if you are on AT&T. The climb is patchy, so download offline maps and make group plans before you go.

⛽ Last Stop

Fuel up and grab anything you forgot before you start climbing. Nothing is available at altitude, and bring more water than you think you need.

🕐 Arrive in Daylight

Setting up in the dark at 40°F is nobody’s favorite. Wednesday Early Arrival gets you in ahead of the rush and first pick of campsites.

Exact arrival details and the access map go to confirmed ticket holders. See full arrival info.

⛺ Tent Camping — Included

Walk-in camping in designated areas, included with every pass, along with restrooms and showers. These are the quieter, more secluded sites — you carry your gear in, and you get more of the trees to yourself.

Arrive together if you want to be placed together, and arrive early for the pick of the spots.

🚘 Car Camping — +$50

Sleep at your vehicle. Placements split two ways: low-clearance for normal passenger cars and high-clearance for crossovers and SUVs that can handle rougher campsite roads, and within those, quiet camp or regular camp.

We ask your preference when you check in and place you there if that area still has room, so show up early for the choice spots. Once you are placed, the vehicle stays put; there is no in-and-out.

🚐 RV Camping — +$200

Dry camping in the K Lodge parking lot. No hookups, no water, no power. Limited to 10 spots.

🛌 Cabins — $500 / $750

Whole-cabin flat rate. Two open rooms with no doors, each holding two twin bunk beds — 8 twin beds total — plus a full-size bed, table, and bench seats in the common room.

These are very barebones. Beds have a thin mattress pad only, so bring your own sleeping bag, blankets, and pillow. The bunk beds can be combined to fit a full-size air mattress if you would rather bring one.

It gets genuinely cold. Camp sits at roughly 6,500 feet. October days run 60s–70s°F, but nights drop into the 30s and 40s. Bring warmer layers than you think you need and a cold-rated sleeping bag.
We are in bear country. Bear boxes are located throughout camp. All food goes in a bear box or your vehicle — never in your tent.
No open flame or smoking, anywhere. No campfires, charcoal, or wood fires; propane stoves are the only permitted cooking flame. Smoking of any kind (including tobacco or cannabis) and vaping of any kind are prohibited. This is a high fire-danger area of the San Bernardino National Forest, and every fire-safety or smoking violation will be taken extremely seriously.
The ground is real mountain ground. Uneven, sloped, and unpaved, with distance and elevation change between areas. Email us before purchasing with any access or accommodation needs and we will work it out with you.
Restrooms and showers are free. Included with your ticket, available throughout camp.
Leave No Trace. Pack out everything you bring in and leave your site cleaner than you found it.
21 and over. Bring a valid government-issued photo ID for check-in.
