Before heading out, and for the safety and enjoyment of everyone at this year’s festival, please take a moment to review our guidelines: ​

 

 

• Your campsite includes one vehicle pass, which will allow one vehicle to enter the campgrounds. A vehicle is anything with a motor, including an RV! If you are hauling a trailer, the trailer will not require a vehicle pass. If it has a steering wheel, it is considered a vehicle.

 

• Campsites vary in size. Your camping unit must not exceed the size you have purchased. Should your camping unit be oversize, you MUST purchase two (2) sites side by side. Under no circumstances can items in your campsite impede on another campsite. This includes camper/RV pop-out slides. 

 

• The fee charged for camping is for the campsite for the entire weekend. 

​

• We do not limit the number of fans per campsite, as long as y'all fit - but you are responsible for all guests on your site. Respect your camping neighbours. 

 

• Each campsite must be registered to one adult, 18 years of age or older.  This individual accepts full responsibility for the campsite. Any campground rules broken may mean eviction with NO REFUND, absolutely NO EXCEPTIONS.

 

• Big Valley Jamboree reserves the right to move any site/camper at its discretion, at any time prior to or during the festival. Best efforts will be made to relocate you to a site near the original location, however, new placement will be at Big Valley Jamboree’s sole discretion.

 

• Camping stickers must be placed on the motor vehicle belonging to the camping unit. Any vehicles / camping units without a camping sticker are subject for removal.

 

• Lost or stolen camping / vehicle stickers can be replaced for a fee. Limit 1 replacement per person.

 

• All vehicles will be subject to search upon entering the site. All campground occupants must wear a full-event wristband.

​​

• Big Valley Jamboree considers motorcycles vehicles. Should you choose to bring a motorcycle to Big Valley Jamboree it must have the appropriate tag (primary camping vehicle sticker, or Extra Vehicle Pass). All motorcycles found without the appropriate credential will be impounded. There is no designated motorcycle parking area in any of our campgrounds or parking lots.

 

• Unlicensed vehicles, campers, trailers, motorcycles are not permitted on the festival site. Big Valley Jamboree may remove these at the owner’s expense.   All unlicensed vehicles will be removed after the festival, with tow bills sent to the registered owner of the campsite via mail. 

 

• No: ATVs, Golf Carts, Mopeds, Bicycles, Skateboards, Scooters, Hoverboards or any other similar devices, with the exception of those permitted for handicap transportation, are allowed. Unauthorized vehicles may be impounded and Big Valley Jamboree accepts no responsibility for such vehicles, or for any damage to unauthorized vehicles.

 

• A paid golf cart taxi system is available to get you around the campground area. Any unauthorized golf cart taxis will be removed and passed along to the local authorities.

 

• Please keep the campground roads and driving lanes clear for emergency vehicle access at all times. Any vehicles found to be blocking the fire lane will be towed at owner’s expense. It is a non-negotiable if festival organizers or emergency crews require you to immediately move a vehicle or RV.

• Generators will be allowed to operate between 7:00 am and Midnight. If your generator makes excessive noise and fumes it will be shut off. People with health-related issues that require generators to run all night must run “whisper mode” to not disturb other campers. Any non-compliance will result in eviction without refund. If festival organizers or emergency crew request that you turn off your generators, this request is non-negotiable.

 

• The Big Valley Jamboree site is beautiful - please help us to keep it that way. Please ensure that you bring trash bags with you to the festival, pick up your trash and keep your campsite clean. Please place bags in large dumpsters that are found throughout the campgrounds. Owners of trash filled sites will be subject to a fine starting at a minimum of $300 and may have renewal rights suspended. Additional trash bags are available from campground staff or at the campground office.
