The Uprise Experience

  • Camping

    Calling all adventurers! If you like to “tough it out,” we’ve got camping available for you throughout the festival. Camping sites are 20 ft by 40 ft (see diagram). This space is recommended for 6 or less people, but there is no limit to the amount of people you can have in that space. The purchase of a Camping pass DOES NOT include admission to the festival. You must purchase a General Admission wristband along with your camping pass. Please note, there are no hookups available and open fires are NOT allowed. Grills and self-contained fire pits are allowed. Hot shower passes can be purchased separately if desired.

    Camping gates open at 9:00 AM on Friday, September 13. Access to the arena will not be granted until after the main gates open on both Friday and Saturday.

    OUR GATE ENTRY HAS CHANGED FOR RV’s. Please use the Red Oak (off Red Oak Lane) gate to enter with your RV. See the festival map for more information.

  • Food

    Good food goes hand in hand with good music! We’ve got many food vendors with everything from hamburgers, rib eye sandwiches, jerk chicken, pizza, funnel cakes, to pretzel braids, ice cream, and so much more!

    Food vendors receive food tokens as payment, which can be pre-purchased with your ticket online or at Uprise Festival at the Main gates or the Token Booth at the south end of the food area.

    Please be aware there will be no cash refunds for unused food tokens.

  • Petting Zoo

    Our petting area is always a very busy place! At any given time you can see a large gathering of children and adults, standing in line to get “up-close and personal” with the animals inside of the fencing. They are cute and adorable and roam freely within to give everyone the opportunity to interact with them. You can pet the larger ones and hold the smaller ones….if you can catch them! The petting zoo is staffed by the animal owners, who are animal lovers themselves

  • Uprise Kidz Zone

    At Uprise, children are not left out! On Saturday, we have an amazing area that is full of fun activities for kidz (toddler through age 11)! They can also enjoy face painting, games, a bouncy house, a special toy area for the toddlers, partake in eating one of the largest ice cream sundaes in the county, be a part of a donut eating contest, prizes and much more! You can find us by looking for the tent with all the noise!

  • Merchandise

    Sport your Uprise and favorite artists apparel during the festival and long after by checking out our Merch tents located throughout the festival! Our Vendor Area (mainly located in the long white buildings near food vendors) provides a variety of apparel, merchandise from Christian colleges and ministry organizations, as well as many great other vendors. Check it out and shop till you drop!
