How: It’s easy to be a “Fandangoer!” First of all, we strongly recommend camping at Riverside Resort Friday and Saturday nights to enjoy the entire festival experience, camaraderie among fellow music fans, and opportunities for after-hours gathering, picking, and singing. The entire festival will be BYOB. You can camp and cook out. Riverside Resort provides a beautiful, shady setting. There’s a pool, mini-golf, sand volleyball, food concession, restrooms, showers, laundry, and of course, the Guadalupe River very nearby. And, can you say, “affordable?” Tent camping $10.00 per person. Six-person cabins for as little as $29.00 per person. Also 2- and 4-person cottages. 2-person RV slips with full hook-ups for $30, extra persons only $5, up to six people per RV – do the math; that’s affordable! (Fandangoers not camping overnight at Riverside must purchase a $5.00 day-use fee, available at the front desk.)
Step One: Purchase your ticket on-line at outhousetickets.com and print out your Fandango barcode! The barcode serves as your ticket. Here’s the link to the Fandango page at Outhouse Tickets:www.outhousetickets.com/venue/riverside_resort/. (It’s cheaper to buy in advance, on-line. Ticket prices increase $5.00 the day of the event.)
Step Two: Reserve your cabin, RV site, or tent site atwww.hillcountryriversideresort.com or call 830-964-3629. (If you’re not staying overnight at the resort, you must buy a $5.00 day-use pass at the front desk, in addition to your Fandango ticket.)
Step Three: Arrive at Riverside Resort, with your Fandango barcode. We’ll scan it in and give you a wrist band. Check into your camp site or cabin (or buy your day-use pass) and prepare to relax and enjoy the musical weekend!
What To Bring: The printout of your Fandango barcode! Lawn chairs or blankets, coolers, drinks (it’s a BYOB weekend), insect repellant, sun screen, sun glasses, sun hats, swim suits, umbrellas, food, charcoal (BBQ grills provided), party attitudes & good moods.
No pets, no open fires.
