VENUE INFORMATION:

Frontier Ghost Town Camp Ground is a private campground. Campers drive into the campground and pick out a spot to set up. There are no designated sites, although obvious spots for campsites are evident. People get to park their cars where their camp sites are set up, and from there it is a short walk to where the bands play.

The campground has portable bathrooms, washing water, and cold showers. Campers should plan on bringing their own camping gear, drinking water, some food, and party supplies. No glass containers & no pets are allowed at the festival.

Children are welcome, but this is more of an adult party festival than a family festival. Having said that, the camping area is large enough so that campers who want a quieter experience can find a spot that is somewhat removed from the late-night party.
