Anyone arriving before or after the gate times will not be able to drive onto the festival site. Please consider these hours when planning your trip – no one likes setting up in the dark!

The first stop you will make when entering OI Equinox is the Box Office and Ticketing area.  Here you will check in and receive your wristband ticket.  Please have your ID and proof of electronic purchase handy.

Your wristband is your ticket, please do not take it off or lose it.  Anyone without a wristband, or in possession of a wristband which has been altered in any way, will be escorted off festival grounds.

For select ticket campers early arrival on Thursday afternoon will be made available.  We are still working out the details on this and will announce to the community details very soon.

We have partnered with new blockchain project, Karmaship to take part in their year-long OCI or Offering Coin Initially program.  All attendees, volunteers, artists and vendors will be able to receive a free airdrop of Karma Experience tokens (KEX) to their phone which will allow for the mining of their currency called Karmex (KMX).  KMX can be spent inside the festival at select vendors’ booths as well as used to barter with other attendees.  You can get more information on Karmaship’s website and blog.

The event is officially over as of Monday morning. We kindly ask that you pack out by noon. We appreciate your mindfulness as you pack out all that you brought in!

Only if you have previously arranged your arrival with your OI Equinox contact. Early admittance is Thursday, September 20th and all those wishing to access the site on that day must be pre-registered. 3-Day Event Pass holders that do not have early access will not be able to come onsite until Friday morning.

3-Day & 2-Day Event passes include camping.
1-Day Event Pass DOES NOT include camping.

We are currently working on a shuttle service for those looking to attend OI Equinox on a single day pass. We will announce cost and details to the community once this is finalized.

OI Equinox does not offer refunds for tickets. Please refer to the policies on our ticket site for more information.

All vehicles are required to pay a parking fee.  $40 per vehicle.

Shuttles from the upper and lower parking lots will bring you and your gear to the campground.

Vehicles with Car Camping and RV Camping passes will be directed to their designated camping areas.

Our parking lots are monitored, and we do not allow camping within them.

Bicycles and other similar vehicles are not permitted at OI Equinox. Live Oak Campground is an intimate easy to navigate venue. You’ll find everything within comfortable walking distance.

If you require ADA assistance in getting around the event grounds please contact info@oiequinox.com.

An RV Pass is for a vehicle longer than 18ft. Trailers of any size are also classified as RVs. For more definition on what classifies as a motorhome or RV, check out this DMV webpage.

A Car Camping Pass is for a vehicle less than 18ft in length. If your camper van is less than 18ft, you’re in the clear with a Car Camping Pass.

If you show up on the grounds with a vehicle longer than 18ft, or a trailer, and you DO NOT have an RV pass, you will not be allowed to bring your vehicle onto the camping grounds. It will be parked in general parking, you will pay a larger impact fee (to account for your larger vehicle), and you will not be able to sleep in it. There is NO CAMPING in the parking lots.

Please, be mindful that our site has limited space and everyone wants a comfy spot to sleep.

There will be NO RV OR CAR CAMPING PASSES available at the gate.

Absolutely NO open flames – this includes fire pits, charcoal BBQs, and burn barrels. Propane grills and camp stoves are permitted.

The only open fire is the venue’s central campfire which will be maintained by staff throughout the event. This common location is open to all, but please self monitor your use if there are people waiting to spend time there as well.

There will be ample designated areas for waste disposal, recycling and composting.  We ask that you work with us in keeping the grounds clean of waste and pollution which means limiting plastics use, aerosol sprays, cleaning products, party accessories, etc.  Remember, what you pack in you need to pack out!

Clean drinking water is provided on site at water refill stations. These stations are to re-fill water only and are not for washing dishes, clothes, or bathing in.

We HIGHLY recommend bringing a quality containment vessel for your water as we strive to stay away from single use plastic containers.   Lets work together to keep garbage and litter at the minimum!

We will have showers available on site, and due to our current drought situation, we ask that you be mindful in their use. It takes 25 gallons of water for a 10 minute shower, so be aware… save some to share.

We kindly ask that you do not set up camp showers or venture to the river (which is restricted from access anyway).

Showers will be open daily for a small fee.

We will have trained professional medical care available on site. The medical team will be positioned at the main Medical tent by the showers.

Should you need immediate medical assistance, alert the nearest staff member ASAP (identified easily as someone carrying a walkie). We are here to keep you safe!

All Workshops, Technology Interfaces, and informative events are included in the price of your entry, and fee-free throughout the event! This is a huge part of the experience so we hope you take advantage of these skilled humans’ efforts and learn something to take home!  These workshop facilitators and teachers are all volunteering their time and energy in sharing their information and time with you so please respond in kind with gratitude– it is OK to tip cash or crypto, barter or just give a hug in thanks.

Outside In Equinox is all about community and so we have partnered with an up and coming open-source crypto project of the highest caliber that matches our values and intentions.

We are happy to be the launching pad of their new economy which focus on karmic interactions and experience.  ALL attendees, artists, vendors, speakers, volunteers, etc will receive free coin upon first entering the gates.  This coin can be saved to earn more coin or spent at the event with participating vendors.  More info coming soon!

NO. Dogs, cats, birds, snakes, fish – do not bring your animal companion. No pets are allowed on site. Any individuals bringing in their pets will be turned around at the gate. If found on-site with your pet, both of you will be asked to leave.

Service animals are defined by the U.S. Department of Justice (ADA) as dogs that are individually trained to do work or perform tasks for people with disabilities. Examples of such work or tasks include guiding people who are blind, alerting people who are deaf, pulling a wheelchair, alerting and protecting a person who is having a seizure, reminding a person with mental illness to take prescribed medications, calming a person with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) during an anxiety attack, or performing other duties. Service animals are working animals, not pets. The work or task a dog has been trained to provide must be directly related to the person’s disability. Dogs whose sole function is to provide comfort or emotional support do not qualify as service animals under the ADA.

If you have a certified service animal that you are required to have with you at all times, please bring the paperwork to support this, and the identification for your animal. You’ll be required to have your service animal with you and ON LEASH at all times. Please contact us via info@outsideinequinox.com prior to the festival so that we are aware of your needs!

Outside In Equinox is not a kid-friendly event and is 18+.  Any minors that wish to experience the event must be accompanied by a legal guardian or parent.

Yes, if you are camping you are required to bring your own tent, dome, yurt or free-design as long as it is within a reasonable size.

Any amplified sound must be approved BEFORE the event. Please be sure to email info@oiequinox.com if you are interested in pitching your renegade idea. Any renegades not pre-approved will be shut down.

Theme camp policy coming soon.

Generators are allowed only if they are unobtrusive to other guests.  This means no loose wires or lines running across paths or placement anywhere that could endanger someone.   We want everyone to have the most comfortable experience possible and  know that a generator can play a big role in that but if  it is a disturbance to others you’ll be asked to turn it off.

Theme camps will be disguising their generators within their artistic camps… we recommend all campers do this as well!

Yes. We will be announcing RV/Trailer Camping soon!

These are items that we suggest you bring for your comfort, entertainment, and safety.

• Bring three (3) trash bags to keep your recyclables and compost separate from landfill waste. Leave no trace – leave our site and the park better than you found it. Pack it in, pack it out!
• Reusable water bottle. Stainless steel is best.
• Reusable eating ware and utensils. Even the food court will allow use of your own washable plate!
• Flashlight, headlamp, reflective neon, anything else to light yourself and your way
• Costumes (we know you won’t forget), decorative lighting, lots of blinkies and other things to decorate and light yourself. Did we mention no glowsticks?!
• Art, musical instruments, props, banners, signs, and anything else you can think of that might make the experience more fun for all
• Camping gear – ideally waterproof. Tents and tarps need to be free-standing. Set a tarp down as a ground cloth below your tent, and pack a few extra large garbage bags to protect your gear just in case it rains.
• Shade structures, umbrellas, parasols, sheets, canopy, tarps, tent, parachute; something to break the strong mid-day sun and/ or rain. However – please be mindful of your individual footprint to allow enough space for all.
• Tennis balls, recycled plastic bottles, or funky stuffed animals, to top and protect dangerous rebar stakes or other hazards
• Appropriate clothing: light clothes for during the day (likely high 60s-70s), warmer clothing for at night (likely high 40s-50s) and rain gear.
• Earplugs
• Any prescription medications, contact lens supplies, and whatever else you need to maintain your health and comfort in a remote area with no services.
• Solid sandals or close-toed shoes and flip flops
• First aid kit – we have a medical team onsite, but it is always a good idea to have some essentials just in case.
• Yoga mat
• Portable chairs
• Love and Positive Spirit!
