Location: On the Planet Bluegrass Ranch at 500 W Main St. in Lyons, CO. Fields on both the north (tents only) and south sides (tents and vehicles) of the Festival grounds.

Vibe: Saunter back and forth from the Festival to your campsite throughout the day. With easy access to the Planet Bluegrass bathhouse and showers, lots of shady trees, the St. Vrain River never more than a few feet away, and the ability to hear the festival from most campsites, on-site camping has become an extremely popular (and coveted) ticket. And that doesn’t even begin to consider the world-renowned jamming that takes place late into the night throughout this campground.

Parking: If you don’t purchase a vehicle pass, parking is available at Planet Bluegrass Farm for $10 cash/weekend. Shuttles run from the Farm Parking to the Campground and the walk is roughly 1,500ft from the North Field and 2,500ft from the South Field.

Festival Access: Unzip your tent, step out, and you’re there! Okay, maybe you have to walk a few hundred yards to the gate, but it doesn’t get any closer than this.
