Once you have gained entry into the gates of a festival, the next step can be tricky... The next step is to obtain the optimal campsite area. When looking into the type of campsite you would like to construct on your festival journey, factors you must consider are:
1. How many people are in your group?
2. How many cars/ tents/ canopies do you have in your group.
3. Would you like to face a walkway (high traffic area), or would you like to face other camps?
4. What shape is most optimal for your campsite?
5. Proximity to the festival ***
Regardless of what kind of camp that you intend on setting up, i would highly recommend that every potential camp pursues number five. Proximity to the festival is a crucial aspect in determining the area that you would like to camp. It is extremely important that you position yourself in the closest proximity possible to the festival entrance. There are many reasons for this but the main reason being, this will allow you to enter/ exit the festival with ease as many others may have up to a 30 minute walk to reach their camps. Also many vendors/ food/ and shops will set up near the entrance of the festival and towards the center of the campground. Even though you may not be spending much time at your campsite during the fest, it is still crucial to get the location of the camp right so that if you need to make a quick trip back to your camp during the day, its not the end of the world. Once you have found the optimal campsite, set up a camp that gears towards your needs as a group and have fun!
