The ticket price says it includes “food and beverage.” What kind of and how much “food and beverage” is this? If I bought a ticket, would I not have to worry about purchasing additional “food and beverage” while I’m there?
Hi.
Is the $25 camping fee for the whole weekend or per night? Or is camping included in the weekend pass price? Thanks!
Hi Carrie,
Camping is $25 per for the weekend. No day camping passes are sold, just weekend.
If we buy Saturday-only camping tickets can we still pay to camp Friday and Saturday nights?
Hi Lorna,
We don’t have day camping passes, the price is $25 per car for the weekend. If you want to stay for the weekend, you will need a weekend pass and camping. If you only buy a day pass, you can stay the night but have to be gone by the following morning at 9am.
Many Thanks!
This is my first time going to the festival. Will there be food for purchase, if so, what kind? (fried things and ice cream vs real meals?)
Hi!
We have a BBQ pit, veggie wraps, salads, genuine Thai food, Gyro booth, cajun food, ice cream, kettle corn and more…free water on site :)
Hi,
We’re first time Dunegrass goers. I wondered if we are going to the family camp area, if we can drive directly to the spot, or do we park in the parking area, and have to carry it all in?
Thanks!

Hi Corie!
You can drive right in to family camp and set up next to your car. It’s in a great spot tucked away so you can get some sleep :)
Hi, Ryan. We’ve gotten alot of info by reading the posts & your replies. Here’s a question we have…Are bicycles allowed on festival site? We’ve been at other music festivals where they are not, but wanted to check before hooking them onto the camper.
HI Tina, Bicycles are fine!
Hi,
I’m planning on attending Dune Grass and I’d love if my 17 year old sister could come. I am 21 and I was wondering if can I be her guardian for the festival?
Thank you!
How many people usually come to this event?
anywhere from 1500 to 3000
Hey Ryan,
Just curious, we bought our tickets during a free t-shirt promotion, do the t-shirts get mailed or do we get them at the gate? (good marketing opportunity to wear them around this summer before the festival!) thnx
Hi John,
You should have gotten an email from me last week requesting your address. I’m just waiting to hear back from a few more folks before I send them out.
If you didn’t get an email please let me know at ryanlakemusic@gmail.com
Best,
Ryan

Hi Kevin,
We have on-site camping with a designated family camping area. We’re still in Empire but inland a few miles on Hwy. 72. We’ll have a shuttle to take folks to the beach.
we went in 08 i heard that the camping location has changed, from the naute area id that acurate? where is it? how far from the stage area? We have 3 kids will this new area have any family camping? thanks kb
Can you bring coolers, bbq’s, alcohol for your camping area?
Thanks!
Absolutely! Just no open fires in the campground.
Will there be kid activities like in years past? I have a two year old and I know she would dig the crafts I have seen at the festival in the past, but I have not been in a few years. Thanks!
Absolutely! Kids tent in full effect! Plenty of arts, crafts and activities all weekend!
if someone is at dunegrass as a vendor do they still have to buy the weekend pass?
No, when you pay your vending fee of $200, it covers 2 people for the weekend + camping.
hey, what are the price of daily passes say i just want to come out on saturday how much would that be? I have come the last three years and just love it. I also hear that you have a new location where will that be at?
Hi Jeri,
check out the map here on the site for location. Day pass prices are yet to be determined but will probably be about $40 for Saturday, $90 for weekend at the gate. Only $60 for early bird wekend pass…
I have never been to Dunegrass but am considering coming this year. Is there space for motorhomes or is camping strictly for tents?
Hi Sue,
There is a place for motorhomes!!!
No worries.
Hey Ryan~ Has taken me forever to get this done!
Dunegrass 09 was just WONDERFUL!!! Brought my son, daughter & granddaughter for their first times!! They will all be back!! As I know I will be there every year as long as there is a Dunegrass & I live!!!
I would be VERY interested in helping/volunteering BEFORE the festival. I have my motorhome and can campout & do most anything before hand. I am also lucky enough to not have to work outside my home. So I have plenty of spare time and would be more than willing to help out at DUNEGRASS 2010!! But I would need advance notice if my help is wanted so I can make arrangements for my animals at home.
Thanks so much for your hard work!! It really showed!!!
I even loved the Saturday morning rain storm!! I was out in it helping hold up the Tees-dyes tent!!!
hey just wondering how you did as far as profits i know that not many people showed up this year and it would be a shame to see dunegrass fade out like that even though this year was still amazing
Hi Joe,
Dunegrass 2010 is on!
No worries,
Ryan Lake
Hi,
Just ordered tickets through Paypal and it is “July 31″. I just read somewhere (after I ordered the tickets ), that they would only be available online through “July 30″. Are my tickets going to be valid ? Thanks for your time. :) Laureen
What address can I put in my gps to get to dunegrass? I’ve never been!
if we are volunteering can we set up our camp sight on thursday night?
if we are volunteering can we set up thursday night?
Attention Campers…. the Empire Eagles will be serving coffee, tea, juices, fresh fruit, cereals, muffins and some other goodies from 7 am to noon on Saturday and Sunday morning. If you bring your own non disposable cup you will get a discount on your beverages at our booth under the pavilion. See you there!!!!!!
i heard that Dark star is secretly coming to dunegrass is that true?
any hints on the stage setup? isee by the schedule that it doesn’t look like the past set ups with the main stage, then a small side stage next to it. i really enjoyed that set up.
also is there gonna be a tent like the dance tent last year? that was another bonus.
WHEN DO WE HAVE TO LEAVE?
SUNDAY OR MONDAY???
Will the tent camping be “walk in” as it has in the past or can we camp next to our car? We’re hoping to camp near our friends with a VW van. Do we have to arrive at the sametime or can we save them a spot?
WHATS THE SATUS ON HAVING FIRES??
One campfire in the infield, and one in the campground. No other fires on site permitted.
The Festival Schedule has been posted at the Dunegrass Festival Myspace; blog

A few questions :)
1.) How does leaving and re-entering the camp ground work? I believe that we are going to check out a view wineries Sat early afternoon for an hour or so… just curious about the parking/camping situation.
2.) How many people usually attend this event?
3.) Does anyone know if the early bird special is still being offered (or have 500 tickets already been sold?)
Peace ~ Love ~ Music
Once you enter the festival, you will recieve a parking pass. You will then be permitted to come and go as you please. The parking is very close to the main stage. We expect around 2,500 people.
When will you be publishing the schedule for the line up?
Will there be a festival grounds map?
Looking forward to the new festival site.
Are we going to be able to camp by our cars?
