TENT CAMPING
The tent camping entrance will be right next to the event grounds. The entire campground is in the sand and all sites are rustic (no power or water). The tent camping entrance will be just off the sidewalk with a large white tent at the entrance. There are 250 tent campsites available. If you have trouble finding the entrance, visit the information tent to get assistance.
Tent sites can be set up starting at 9:00 AM the morning of the event. There will be a check-in at the Tent Camping entrance. At check-in, you will receive your site number and your camping wristbands.
- Sites must be torn down by 10-10:30 am the next day and please clean up your site space (don’t leave trash behind).
- We will have a community-style fire at the tent camping area.
- You are allowed to bring in food and a cooler for your space.
- Please limit 1 tent per tent space if possible. Tent sites are 20×20.
- Campfires will be moved to the end closest to the event space. If you want to be close to the fire pits, be sure to arrive early as sites are first come first served.
