Come Camping with us!

Starry skies, jam sessions, and towering oaks. It doesn’t get more idyllic than this.

Site types

At Parkfield Bluegrass Festival, we offer reserved campsites with electricity (fee required) and open, dry camping

There are a limited number of reserved electrical hookup campsites providing 30 Amp, 20 Amp and 10 Amp service. No A/C or high power usage devices in the 10 Amp Electric Sites. Only campers who purchase electrical hookup may camp in the designated electrical sites. We are hopeful we will soon have more sites available.
Sites are first offered to the prior year reservation holder, any remaining sites are then offered to folks who have signed up for the electric camp site waiting list. Reservation outreach customarily takes place immediately before tickets go on sale. If you are a prior year reservation holder, you do not need to reach out to the coordinator unless you have not heard from them by the end of February.

Other areas for camping are on a first come, first served basis. We have dozens of acres of ‘open’ dry camping in the ‘Boondocks’ area across the cattle guard near the community center. There are no designated sites, just find a place to camp & set up. Please do not ‘reserve’ space for those arriving later. Please do not block fire lanes.

Policies

BMSCC s Board of Directors and festival personnel ask that you cooperate with guidelines governing conduct of attendees. Please read the following rules and regulations carefully. By following these simple guidelines, we all can enjoy our festival days together in harmony and enjoy some wonderful music!

NO connecting to facility on-site power sources. If you would like power for your camp site you must reserve an electrical site.
- Camping begins the Wednesday prior to the festival with Multi Day Festival ticket purchases
- No Early Camping/Arrival before that date
A camping unit comprises a campsite with tent(s) and no more than two automobiles or camping vehicles (motor home, trailer, etc.). Camping included with Multi-Day Festival ticket purchases.
No open fires or any open burning, including camp, charcoal, and cooking fires, are allowed. Propane heaters & stoves are fine. Please be careful. Fire danger will be high.
Well behaved pets are welcome at the festival, but not in the audience area. They must be kept on a leash, quiet & under the owners control at all times. Festival staff reserves discretion to have unruly or uncontrolled pets removed from site.
Anyone who owns a service animal, or who is licensed to train a service animal, may bring said animal to the festival, pursuant to the federal Americans With Disabilities Act and the Unruh Civil Right Act (Calif. Civil Code sections 54-55.2),
A service animal may assist its owner while in common areas provided the animal behaves appropriately and unobtrusively. Each such animal shall be kept on a leash, in a carrier, or otherwise under the direct control of the animal owner.
Hours of operation are 9 AM to 9 PM.
For the safety and pleasure of neighboring campers and RVers, a generator diversion exhaust system is required for all onboard generators. The exhaust system shall redirect exhaust exiting above the top level of your RV reducing the noise and divert harmful exhaust fumes away from the ground, where they are often inhaled by neighbors. Please be very considerate if using an external generator. Some type of sound baffling may be necessary. Fumes can be a problem here too. Remember, your neighbors may be in a tent. If the use of a generator is deemed to be unreasonably loud or smelly by the facility staff, use of the generator may be limited &/or prohibited.
The Festival Grounds has adopted a ‘No Drone’ policy which will be strictly enforced.
