General

Chattahippie is an outdoor event, located on a 50+ acre riverside venue. Consequently, sunscreen, rain ponchos and lawn chairs are recommended. Blankets and ground-seats are OK, too. Feel free to make yourself comfortable, just try not to annoy your fellow hippies.

The event will be held rain-or-shine. If it does happen to rain, no worries - we will all just smell a tad bit nicer than if it doesn’t.

For the safety of everyone, no pets or coolers are allowed on the festival grounds. Or firearms. Or fireworks. Or other things that you know shouldn’t be brought into large public gatherings.

To keep your thirst in control, you are allowed to bring two unopened, 16oz (max size) plastic water bottles into the festival grounds. We’ll have plenty of other water, soft drinks and beer available at reasonable prices. And great food, too!

Camping

There will be limited number of tent camping permits made available for on-site space on the Chattahippie festival grounds. Watch our website for further details, but priority will be given to 4-day ticket holders, followed by 3-day ticket holders.

To request an on-site camping reservation:

• Purchase your 4 or 3-day tickets on www.chattahippie.com
• When checking out, allow for us to communicate with you through your email address
• Watch your email for an invitation, and follow the instructions. You will need to know the exact size of your party, including attendee names, before requesting a permit.
• All listed campers must purchase a multi-day festival ticket.

Additional camping space is available just across the bay at the Chester Frost State Park. We highly recommend that you consider camping on their grounds, as they have more space and better accommodations for RV and tent camping. However, space is allocated on a first-come, first-serve basis; reservations are not allowed. We recommend that you arrive early to guarantee a spot.

Clean Beds & Hot Showers

Not into camping? We don’t blame you - sometimes a shower and a clean bed can really hit the spot.

The festival grounds are located less than 20 minutes from the Chattanooga airport, and a quick & easy drive to practically every hotel in the area. We’ll post a list of the closest lodgings soon, but feel free to look around - there are many great places to stay.

Children

Chattahippie is a family-friendly event, and kids are welcome.

Children age 12 and under are admitted free when accompanied by a ticket-holding parent or legal guardian. Children must remain under your control & care at all times; unattended youngsters, and their parents, may be asked to leave the festival grounds without refund.

Please be safe, be smart and be responsible - watch your children closely, and enjoy a great festival.

Parking
Reduce traffic and save our natural resources, and your money, by carpooling the earth-friendly way. Vehicles with 4+ occupants, motorcycles and human-powered vehicles are admitted free; all other vehicles will be charged a $10 parking fee at the gate.
