This summer, a beautiful campsite nestled among towering redwoods will be transformed into an EDM music festival complete with bars, multiple stages, fun camp games, and more.
The festival, Dirtybird Campout X Northern Nights, will take over the Northern California campsite on July 17 through 19, 2026, turning it into a music festival surrounded by nature. The festival takes some inspiration from nostalgic summer camps, with camp games and swimming in the scenic river.
The campsite is tucked away in Cooks Valley, Mendocino, approximately a three-hour drive from San Francisco. The festival grounds are on a river perfect for taking a dip, surrounded by the massive redwoods, with multiple stages nestled throughout.
Camping at Dirtybird Campout X Northern Nights
Festival attendees can choose from several camping options, including free tent camping by the river and comfortable glamping options. You can also opt for bring and RV or car camping on the festival grounds. Aside from the free tent camping option, attendees purchase a reservation for their preferred camping method in addition to their festival pass. The free tent camping option is available with every ticket purchase on a walk-in, first-come, first-served basis.
