Camping
The Official Borderland Camping experience in partnership with Kissing Bridge returns for year two! Kissing Bridge Basecamp is a close, fun and affordable way to experience the Borderland.
Just 15 miles through the hills lies Borderland Basecamp at Kissing Bridge where over 400 campers continued the Festival experience after-hours in 2023. And we’re ready to do it again in 2024! Tent and RV campers nestle along the slopes for the Official Borderland After-Party on Friday and Saturday nights with more live music, refreshments and snacks from Willie’s Smokehouse lodge. Come morning, hot coffee awaits with a shuttle service available to bring campers to and from the Borderland Festival.
