No Tolerance Fire Policy

The Cowpie Blues Festival has a No Tolerance Fire Policy this year. That means ABSOLUTELY NO FIRES. If you have a fire, open, in a barrel, in a burning pit, whatever, you will have it put out by The Caledonia Fire Department and you will be charged $50.00 for their services. There are way too many people camping to allow any type of fire. Grilles and cook stoves are still allowed but must be attended at all times.

More Camping

We are adding 35 acres to our campground this year. The new area is located directly east of the existing camping area. We will have more information available on this area soon!

Quiet Area Campground

We are going to have a quiet area portion in our campground this year. This area is designed for use by families and folks that want a little peace and quiet. The area will be located in the southwest corner of the campground. If you feel like staying up all night this is NOT the area for you. Our camping hospitality staff can direct you to this area upon your arrival at The Cowpie!

Cowpie Comfort

We have had a few requests regarding hotels near the Cowpie. In association with The Comfort Inn Grand Rapids, we now have a "Cowpie Comfort" Package that includes hotel rooms for Friday and Saturday nights and weekend Cowpie tickets. Check out the Hotel Accomodation section under Festival Info.
