LODGING & CAMPING
CAMPING
One primitive tent campsite is included with every ticket – same as past years. There’s a lot of space in several different areas. Campsites are not marked or numbered. Be sure you arrive early enough to look around, pick your favorite spot, and get set up before dark.
If you want “full service” tent camping by a professional, get in touch with Dana at DANA’S OUTDOOR EDVENTURES – she’ll rent you a tent and set it up for you..
RV CAMPING
RV sites must be booked through Wild Goose – not with VanHoy. Check back frequently for RV ticket info and sign up for our emails so you are notified when RV tickets go on sale.
RV CAMPING – with Hook Up
RVs must be parked by 4 pm Thursday and remain parked until 1 pm Sunday. For safety reasons, there will be no exceptions to this other than true emergencies. Additional vehicles will be subject to the regular parking policies and must remain in the designated Parking Area.
RV CAMPING – No Hook Up
This type of spot is for RVS, cars, pop-up campers, vans, etc., which do not need hookups of any kind (electricity, water, waste) AND the vehicle is being used for sleeping (no tent, etc.).
Please park closely and considerately. Pop-Up Campers are permitted anywhere in the open camping area. This is subject to change according to weather and other site production needs. Please obey any posted signs or instructions from Festival staff or Rangers.
GLAMPING
Want to camp in a little bit of style without the hassle of bringing your own gear? Why not try Glamping? We’re working with our partner, The PopUp BnB which offers a variety of pre-pitched glamping tents ready for you when you arrive. They offer a number options and sizes—from unfurnished tents to completely outfitted with air conditioning.

FAMILY CAMPING
Are you attending the Goose with children? We invite you to a calmer tent space near Car Camping and the Backyard Patio alongside other families and Children’s Team offerings! This area at the festival is further from the music venues, making it a little quieter at bedtime and ensures a short walk to morning and evening Family Prayer, Bedtime stories, organized games, and other opportunities for family fellowship.
CAR CAMPING
Car Camping allows a limited number of sites to be reserved within a designated area. From 4 pm Thursday until 1 pm Sunday, vehicles will need to remain parked at their site. Camp with your car nearby or camp inside your vehicle (without hookups).
HOTELS/MOTELS
For the first time, we are offering a block of rooms with a reduced rate for those wishing to stay nearby in a hotel – the Hilton Garden Inn in nearby Statesville (about 15 minutes away by car). Their rate includes breakfast for up to 4 people staying in the room.
To learn more or to book a room at the Hilton Garden Inn, click the button below.
In Statesville are additional self-booking options like Sleep Inn, Fairfield Inn & Suites, Days Inn, Holiday Inn Express & Suites, and more.
Near Elkin, options such as Best Western Plus Yadkin Valley Inn & Suites, and more.
We recommend you look at options to reserve early enough to shop for competitive rates.
Please note: Out of respect for others around you, no generators are allowed in camping areas (including RV and Glamping).
Additional Accommodations
Nearby, there are limited cabin rentals or options for Airbnb, etc.
Arranging an RV rental on your own is an option, but note RV spots sell quickly once on sale through Wild Goose. Make sure to reserve your spot before renting your RV.
