What are the festival camping facilities like?
The festival is located on 20 acres of woodland and meadows. When you arrive, you can park your car in the main parking area and then stroll around to hunt down the perfect camping spot. There are no camp-"sites" . . . you can camp wherever you like.

Picnic tables, some propane grills, an outdoor sink, and chairs are all located in a central area near the festival stage, so if you'd like to have any chairs, propane grills or tables closer to your campsite, feel free to bring them along!

There are no public restrooms, but there will be outhouses throughout the property. There is one sink with cold running water for limited cooking use. Showers are available at Moran State Park - located about 20 minutes from the festival site.

How do we cook? Can we build campfires?
There is one outdoor sink available, and a few propane grills and one propane stove will be set up for everyone to use. You can also bring along your own camp-stove.
There is a burn-ban in effect for the San Juan Islands throughout the summer, so campfires aren't possible during the festival.

What should we bring?
Camping equipment (tent, sleeping bags, mats to cushion against bumpy ground, pillows, chairs etc), meal supplies (potluck breakfast food, drinking water, snacks, non-alcoholic beverages, utensils etc), and clothing for all weather!

What should we leave at home?
Pets, alcohol, any illegal substances, weapons, work, and rain!

What else is there to do on Orcas?
If you like hiking, try out Mt. Constitution in Moran State Park - there are several trails that wind around mountain lakes. At the bottom of the mountain is Cascade Lake - a popular place to swim, canoe, or just lounge in the sun. Kayaks can be rented in town to explore the sound, or try a guided experience on a Whale Watching boat! There are also quite a few unique restaurants and small shops to visit in Eastsound. A Saturday Market is held in the village square as well. If you'd like a nice evening out, reserve a table at Deer Harbor Inn, Christina's, Ship's Bay, or Rosario Resort.
