Peak Travel Times
Peak travel times are 9 a.m. on Friday (for campers), 3 p.m. - 5 p.m. each day and exiting the festival each night. If you can’t head out early to avoid traffic and have to wait in line on your way in or out of the festival grounds, remember to keep it friendly. Your fellow Hinterlanders are waiting too, and everyone will be there soon!
Arriving for Car Campers
View the camping & parking map to know where to go and follow our posted signs when you arrive.
Get directions by using the GPS coordinates to the Car Camping lot entrance:
Car Camping - 41.29340956669415, -93.78617483317413
Parking pass window stickers are required to enter the Car Camping lot. If you don't have one, you MUST go to the Box Office beforehand. Put it on the inside of your driver's side front windshield. This helps us keep everything moving quickly!
Site locations are assigned upon arrival - if you want a site next to your friends, plan to arrive at the same time.
If you need parking beyond the one vehicle allowed per campsite, purchase a parking pass for Outerland Tent Campground here for closest parking.
