Festival Info/FAQs

  • The idea behind leave no trace, in simple terms, is to leave a place in a condition the same as how it was when you discovered it. This means packing out what you bring in, doing a thorough job cleaning up trash, and respecting the natural state of the plants and animals. The festival will provide trash bags to help assist with leave no trace policy. Come prepared to pack out what you bring in!

    Clearly marked recycling bins will be placed around the campgrounds and main stage area. Please use these to relieve some of the burden of packing trash out.

  • Line Up is not guaranteed but the good time is! We allow for the ebb and flow of life and know that anything can happen at any given moment.

    General Admission campsites are first come, first serve and are not guaranteed to be close to parking.

  • We party in the rain!! Old Friends Music Festival is a rain or shine event. Should the weather look like we will have rain, please bring rain gear and plan accordingly. If weather looks like it will be getting dangerous, we may be forced to postpone events, or alter the schedule to keep everyone safe.
