Trip Tips:

There is a truck stop (restaurant, fuel, and convenience store) 7 minutes before the festival on I-12 at exit #42. - There are several camp grounds in the area; advance reservations recommended. - If asking for directions use common reference points such as the high school, airport or River Road; most people do not know local road numbers.

Primitive camping is available Friday and Saturday nights at the festival.  We recommend one of the full service campgrounds, or area hotels.
