Strawberry is a multi-day, family-friendly campout with activities and entertainment for all ages, as well as an annual reunion for a multi-generational community of music lovers whose roots date back to 1982. No matter where you land on Strawberry’s magical, musical timeline, we are grateful for your participation and look forward to seeing you at our upcoming 71st festival!
Strawberry’s Spring Festival at the Nevada County Fairgrounds is easy to get to and easy to get around. Festival camping and family recreation are made comfortable, on 100 acres of conifer forest, by amenities that include easy access to potable water, permanent restrooms and portable toilets, handwashing stations, shower facilities, garbage/recycling service, and more. Strawberry’s multi-day camping ticket guarantees space for dry camping, with any size or type of vehicle. The new tent-only area is especially nice camping on tree studded lawns and close to everything. Shaded space is plentiful for groups both small and large.
