Single day tickets -- camping? Shuttle? May 16, 2016 13:37:22 GMT -5

Hoping to pick up a Saturday ticket when (or if) they go on sale later in the summer, but I'm wondering what my options are for lodging. Will I have access to the campgrounds? I assume that they scan you on your way into the concert venue, so letting single day ticket-holders into the campgrounds shouldn't be an issue -- or will it?!

If that doesn't fly, is shuttle my only option? Does anyone know how late the last shuttle is? Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks kindly!

I think they have had single day camping options available in the past. I don't think they let you take your car in to the general/weekend campgrounds though. You can park in the day parking area and I assume the single day campgrounds are close by - all of these in the past were pretty close to the front entrance just off the highway and the general camping is located in the rear of the ground off of the highway

I don't think there is single day camping. Pretty sure you have to park in day parking. Your Sat wristband will get you in the concert area on Sat only. You do have access to the campgrounds but not good access to drag any camping stuff in thru the venue. If you do crash out at someone elses camp Sat night then you can stay in the campgrounds Sun or hike around the venue back to day parking. Last shuttle leaves before Lettuce will be done of Sat night. Really iffy on making that connection.

This is your last chance. After this, there is no turning back. You take the blue pill—the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill—you stay in Wonderland, and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes. Remember: all I'm offering is the truth. Nothing more.

What happens if I take both?

Thanks so much for the quick replies! Lettuce would be a must-see funk-down for me, so I guess that rules out the shuttle. The next question becomes -- do they clear out day parking each night? Or simply -- could I get away with sleeping in my car and leaving Sunday morning??

I know people who slept in their car in day parking last year when they didn't want to drive back to their hotel at 4 am. They left in the morning and didn't have any problems.

They may not be thrilled with you sleeping in your car but there is no way they would try and clear you out. Liability being what it is. We had friends that drove there separate from our rv on Fri and parked in day parking. They stayed until Mon morning with no problems.

Looks like I'll be okay taking my chances sleeping in my car Saturday night in day parking, or perhaps even wandering into the weekend campgrounds. Can't wait!
