Urban Camp Weekend – Fall / October 2026
Welcome to the largest camping festival in the world!
Welcome to the all-new Urban Camp Weekend: UCW Fall Fest! This season, we’re turning up the vibes with an incredible mix of activities, entertainment, and community moments you won’t forget. Get ready to laugh out loud at our comedy show, recharge your mind and body with our wellness and fitness activations, and dive into real conversations during our various panels. The weekend’s packed with energy, connection, and experiences that’ll keep you talking long after camp is over—and that’s just the beginning!
While we’ve added new experiences, you can still enjoy the same activities and feel-good environment that have made Urban Camp Weekend a favorite for so many.
Picture you and your friends at a house party or BBQ—now add a tent, some games, food, a DJ, surprise events, additional outdoor recreational activities, and an OPEN BAR, and you’ve envisioned the best festival experience yet. Early sign-up and arrival are strongly encouraged. Due to capacity limitations, prices will increase periodically, so we recommend paying early and arriving on Thursday. See you in October!
Tour Agenda
1:00 pm – 10:00 pm – Early Arrival and check-in! Show your name and driver’s license at the check-in tent upon entry. If you rented an RV through RVshare, it’s likely already there waiting for you. Thursday is the perfect day to set up, relax, and ease into the weekend. Guests may drive directly to their campsites to unload—this is the only day vehicle access is allowed at campsites.
As night falls, the DJs begin sound checks that naturally turn into a laid-back pre-party, setting the vibe for the days ahead.
9:00 am – 12:00 pm – Continue setting up your campsite and meet your neighbors—teamwork makes it easier and more fun.
All tickets must be purchased online; no payments are accepted at the gate or registration.
