The Experience
Pull in. Set up. Stay a while.
Sun going down, music coming off the stage, friends setting up camp, somebody laughing near the river, food in the air. Nowhere else you need to be.
01
The Music
Gates open at 3:00 PM. The first band hits at 4:00 PM. From there it's one stage, back to back, until 11:30 PM.
Bring a lawn chair, find your patch of ground, and stay for the last song.
02
The River
The Canadian River is the reason this all works. Wide sky, sandy bed, cottonwoods and a sunset that turns the whole valley orange right about the time the good sets start.
The river isn't a backdrop. It's the room.
03
The Camping
Primitive spots at The River Bed, on festival grounds. Set up as many tents as fit in your spot, park up to two vehicles, and make the walk to the stage a short one.
Limited spots, first come, first served.
The Food & The People
The Food
A variety of vendors set up by the Main Gate throughout the day. Bring cash for food. Bring your own beverages if you want alcohol — and no glass containers, period.
The People
Volunteers run the show. Sponsors make it possible. Locals make Canadian worth the drive. CRMF is the kind of festival you hear about from a friend and then keep coming back to.
