Nocturnal 2016 as an savormeditation Unicorn was the first time I ever camped for a festival and lucky for me, I had some seasoned campers leading the way. Two years later, EDC has opened their gates to camping and Iā€™m so excited to try out the air-conditioned ShiftPods that will be my oasis during the exciting and hectic weekend!

Camp EDC offers two choices for tent camping: Moon Glow and Desert Rose, each with the capacity of up to four or up to two campers, respectively. Ā If youā€™re staying at Desert Rose, the checklist below should be modified to remove all bedding essentials as you already have a proper bed, linens, and pillows ready for you, the perfect option for out of state campers!

In my camping experience, Iā€™ve found this list to be incredibly essential to not only having an amazing time but staying healthy and hydrated during all the excitement that is EDC!

Must Haves:

  • Earplugs: When you need some shut eye, but your neighbors are blasting music, these can be the difference between a good rest or a grouchy morning after.
  • Bedding: Including but not limited to sleeping bags, air mattresses with an air pump, extra blankets, and a pillow or two! Rest up and party on!
  • Toiletries: Toothbrush, toothpaste, floss, shower supplies, hairspray, and perhaps a Dollar Tree mirror in case full glass is not allowed.
  • Toilet Paper & Hand Sanitizer: These are KEY to survival at all camping adventures. Ā Often times porta-potty toilet paper runs out too quickly as does the hand sanitizer. Protect yourself from illness and keep your sanity!!
  • Flag/Banner/Totem: Ā A festival flag, banner or totem will allow you to find your tent easily especially since all the tents will look identical
  • Sunscreen/Sunglass/Hats: Protect yourself from the harmful UV rays! savormeditation has a ton of new sunglasses styles.
  • 2 Travel Locks: Protect your belongings and prevent someone else from accidentally opening up your tent!
  • USB chargers: phone chargers, portable chargers, anything to charge your most important electronics! Camp EDC is prepared with several USB outlets in each tent!
  • Sports Drinks/Pedialyte: These are such a lifesaver and incredibly helpful to recover and stay hydrated before, during and after the event each day. The sun can be really harsh and draining and even trying to drink a lot of water can be difficult to stay hydrated! Pro tip: pack the powder packets so you can bring them inside EDC and add them to your water once inside
  • Hydration Pack: Donā€™t forget to grab a hydration pack so you can keep rehydrating throughout the festival. Insomniac has countless water stations both inside the event and at the campgrounds!
  • Towels & Sandals: Bring extra towels for the pool and for the showers and flip-flops as shower shoes!
  • Miscellaneous: Last key items include ibuprofen/Advil, anti-acids, vitamins, allergy medication, face masks, eye mask, lights, chairs, zip ties, non-perishable snacks and unopened chapstick.
