Enjoy easy access to your belongings all weekend with a 10’ x 20’ space for your car and campsite. One Car Camping pass is required per vehicle. Campsites are first come, first served.

Each pass provides a 10’ x 20’ campsite for your vehicle. Due to the rugged terrain near the river (including loose rocks and sand), a 4WD vehicle is required to access this area. One 4×4 Camping Pass is required per vehicle, and all spaces are first come, first served. 4×4 camper vans are welcome. This pass does not include festival admission — a valid Admission Pass is required per person.

The most effortless way to experience Northern Nights!

Show up, settle in, and enjoy the weekend. No packing lists, no setup, no breakdown. This pass does not include festival admission — each person must also have a valid Admission Pass.

Skip the setup and walk straight into a furnished tent. Each Camp Ready tent has two twin beds with memory foam mattresses on raised frames, full linens, a side table, two battery-operated lanterns and an area rug underfoot. A mesh door keeps air moving through warm nights, and at 8 ft tall there’s room to stand up and get ready. We pitch it before you arrive, so all you have to do is drop your bags and go find the music. One Camp Ready pass is required per tent (up to 2 people). This pass does not include festival admission — each person must also have a valid Admission Pass. Parking is not included and must be purchased separately.
