Title: Camping at Virgin Festival
Post by: shawno119 on July 29, 2007, 10:18:00 pm
Hey is anyone planning on camping out for the Virgin Festival?  Is there a campground close enough to Pimlico to walk over to the concert or to take public transportation.  Thanks.

According to the V Fest website the cloest is a short 12 miles away.

I'll be camping at the "Red Carpet Inn", only a mile away.  Although it doesn't look that luxurious, I'm hoping that it is transformed into a raging after-show party scene at the end of each night.

you can probably pay one of the pimlico neighbors to camp in their yard.

hahhahhaah, Camp at Pimlico??? have you ever seen the area around Pimlico???  There probably will be some people laying around on the street around Pimlico. But i doubt they are camping or laying there by choice.

I'm waiting to see the after parties at those houses. When we were leaving last year they had hot dogs, chicken wings, burgers and beers for sale.

Sorry but this thread made me laugh. It's kind of like looking for camping for a festival at RFK.
 
 As someone else suggested, I'm sure for the right price, one of the neighbors will let you camp out on their lawn or maybe even in their backyard. They have trees. It might not be that bad if you are truly the adventerous sort. I'd just make sure the person collecting the money actually owns said property. Same for parking on their lawns as it's happened before where some neighborhood slug has claimed to own the place, pocketed the money and moved on. Also, don't sleep too tight just in case that slug sneaks up on you for a little night prowling like a bear in the woods.
