CAMPING

Absolutely NO FIRE WORKS, CAMP FIRES, OPEN FLAME FIRES, OR OPEN FLAME CANDLES will be allowed.   This includes charcoal or pellet grills, Traegers and other open flame devices. Propane stoves, fire pits, grills & barbeques with shut-off valves are allowed.  When in grass areas, please be cautious when smoking.  ANY UNATTENDED BURNING DEVICE WILL BE TURNED OFF.  IF FOUND A SECOND TIME, IT WILL BE DIS-ALLOWED. 

CAMP HOSTS are volunteers who have offered to help during the Festival.  Each campground has a minimum of 2 Camp Hosts, while the bigger campgrounds may have as many as 8. 

The role of a Camp Host is to greet patrons, be a source of good information about the Festival and local areas, and provide basic security.  Camp Hosts have the authority to evict campers and guests from campgrounds if they are violating Oregon Jamboree rules and guidelines.

Camp Hosts in unreserved sites will have the authority to assign camp sites.

Camp Site vouchers, also called tickets or passes, are sold on a per-site (not per-person) basis and are valid from 2:00 p.m. Thursday before the first day of the Festival until 10:00 a.m. Monday after the last day of the Festival.  

You must show a campsite voucher when you check in with the Camp Hosts, before you start setting up your site.  You can show this as a hard copy ticket, print at home ticket, a mobile ticket in your apple wallet, or a picture of your ticket.

In campgrounds that are non-reservable, when you arrive, you may show your voucher as well as that of others that you are wanting to camp with and the camp host will assign you sites together.  

Note that campsites go to the first person who arrives.  So if you bought your site from a 3rd party, and you check in with that voucher, and it is already occupied, then you will have to go purchase a new site at the Box Office onsite. 

Campsites are 20’X40′ or 25’X50′ with no hook-ups. 

Some tent sites are 20’x30′.  

The number of tents is not limited in your site.  Only one RV (one steering wheel) per site.  RV sites can have tents as long as they fit in within your boundaries.

All RVs, tents, vehicles, and property must be kept within your site boundaries.  Multiple sites must follow the Camping Guidelines and follow one RV per site, and must be backed in or pulled straight in.  All roads in campgrounds are classified as fire-access roads and cannot be blocked.  Vehicles/other property blocking the fire roads will be removed at owner’s expense.

The number of tents is not limited in your site.  Only one RV (one steering wheel) per site.  RV sites can have tents as long as they fit within your boundaries.

Please see Extra Vehicles below for more information about an extra vehicle pass.

Check in begins Thursday at 2:00 pm, NO EARLY ARRIVALS.  Once you are settled, you will not be allowed to move RVs or tents.

Check Out time is no later than Monday at 10 am. Please leave your site as clean or cleaner than when you arrived.  We appreciate it!

Extra vehicle passes are $25 and sold “as available” from your camp host (not online), maximum one per campsite. 

Tent A has a strict “no extra vehicle” policy.

“One Steering Wheel” per campsite is allowed, with the exception of stationary vehicles that do not leave the campsite.  For example, a motorhome and a car are “one camping unit,” but the motorhome must stay in your site for the duration of your stay.

Motorcycles, one for each person camping, collectively, is considered one vehicle.

Please see our Extra Vehicle Document for reference.

Portable toilets and sanitation services are provided at each campground.

Generators are not allowed during Quiet Hours* but are allowed during the day.

Festival management reserves the right to prohibit use of any generator at any time.  The Sweet Home Fire Chief has made the final decision on this policy with safety of all patrons in mind.

*Quiet Hours are one hour after the end of the final concert until 7:00am the following day.

CAMPERS OR GUESTS who behave in a way that could be considered obscene, indecent, lewd, racially offensive, suggestive, harassing, threatening, objectionable, or unlawful shall be subject to loss of band(s), removal from all festival properties, including campgrounds, & punishable to the full extent of the law.

Only one RV is allowed per site.  RV’s must remain in your site for the duration of you stay.  You can add additional “wheel-less” tents to a RV site if it fits within your marked boundaries.  

When you check-in to your campsite,  your Camp Host, after verifying your reservation, will provide you with one parking pass for your site.  When available, one extra vehicle pass, per site, is allowed to be purchased. 

Camping passes must be visible at all times while in the campground and for re-entry to the campground.

Sorry, NO pets allowed into the festival. Service animals are welcome.  We do not recommend bringing pets to your campgrounds due to average time spent away from campsites.

Propane cooking grills are welcome if fire danger level allows. Open fires and charcoal grills are prohibited.

“TENT-only camping” is, in most cases, restricted to tents (no tent-trailers or anything with a steering wheel of any kind). 

Please respect the boundaries of your site and do not use multiple sites to create Wagon Wheel formations.  This is per direction from the Sweet Home Fire Department.  The Sweet Home Fire Chief has requested that The Oregon Jamboree allow room to drive up to every single site in order to facilitate a quick emergency response if needed.

Camp Hosts have been asked to enforce this new policy going forward.  We thank you in advance for your cooperation and understanding.

U-Shaped formations are OK as long as there is emergency access on both sides of the vehicle that creates the back side of the “U.”  Please reference this visual aid.
