Jam in the Valley has approximately 1,200 on-site “primitive” camping spaces. Most of the campground areas are “open-spaced” with rolling fields and limited gravel road access. There are no electrical or water connections or dump stations available. Each site is roughly measured out to be 16ft x 45ft (720sq. feet) or roughly equal to 720sq feet.
Only one vehicle per campsite is allowed to park at campsites. All other vehicles planning on staying overnight/for the weekend must park in the Campground Visitor's Parking Lot. A $15 fee will be charged. Vehicles parked overnight in the Concert Parking Lot will be towed at the vehicle owners expense and the campsite owner will be charged an additional $50 to their credit card.
All persons camping in or utilizing Jam in the Valley campground facilities do so at their own risk. No liability is assumed by owners, managers, promoters, sponsors or others.

Large Group Camping Information:
Large group camping is a convenience that Jam in the Valley provides. If you purchase 6 or more sites (with required amount of tickets) then you will receive a $5 discount per campsite.
Large group camping ensures that your group will be able to camp on consecutive sites. Large group campers will be allowed to come in a few days earlier than the general camping public to start set up. We allow this so that we can ease the process of getting 1,200 campsites loaded as the concert draws near.
Whoever's name is on the purchase of large group camping will be the "captain" of your group. Jam in the Valley staff will contact you and work on your arrangements for Jam in the Valley '08
