Grey Fox sells 4000 camping tickets. We normally sell out, so purchase your tickets early! Full Festival Camping tickets are valid 7am Wednesday thru 5pm Sunday. Tents, pop-ups and RVs are welcome. Our camping areas are flat, freshly mown hayfields. We provide free water for drinking and many other amenities for campers. Back by popular demand are RV Hookups in “Powertown” (50 amps of power and access to water) and our oh-so comfy “Glamping Village” in the High Meadow area.
Open Mic Night: Several years ago a great idea was hatched. We’d have a Wednesday night Open Mic for Early Campers and see if anyone shows up. Not only did musicians show up that first night, so did a good bunch of people to listen. It quickly was embedded in our DNA. We know that lots of Grey Fox fans are red hot pickers, singers, and songwriters, so here’s your chance to strut your stuff on stage.
Emerging Artist Showcase: Each year, we’re excited to introduce our fans to some of the finest emerging artists on the scene today. Showcase bands kick off the day at the Creekside Stage on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. You’re sure to find a new favorite band. Come see what’s on the horizon!
Meditation / Yoga / Dance: Catskill Stage, sponsored by New Belgium/Bell’s Brewing. Possibly our most varied stage — from morning yoga and Appalachian dance instruction to your favorite bands in concert. Plan to move your bones!
The Grey Fox Bluegrass Academy for Kids (BGA) has taught kids to play, sing, and perform bluegrass on site during the festival since 1989. This camp-like program includes instrumental instruction, ensemble and harmony vocal classes, and guest appearances by Grey Fox artists. The grand finale is the prime-time “Big Gig” on Saturday at the High Meadow Night Stage. The BGA instruction program is FREE.
Wernick Method Bluegrass Jam Camp: Prior to Grey Fox at the Oak Hill Fire House, across from the festival entrance. Led by banjo player and music educator, Scott Hopkins, you’ll be picking the first morning, ready to jam all weekend, and well on your way to playing bluegrass for a lifetime. You’ll be amazed at how much you’ll learn. Jump in
Best Campsite Contest: Each year, our Trash & Recycling crew scours the festival for the most creative campsite with the smallest footprint. All campsites are automatically in the running. So, think lean, green and over-the-top creative. We can’t wait to see your compact campsite with charismatic charm! What’s the prize?? A full fest ticket to next year’s Grey Fox. Good luck!
