Mt. Bachelor is thrilled to announce the return of its signature FREE spring festival, RendezVan, May 2-May 5, promising an unforgettable celebration of spring shredding, van-life culture, music, food and more.
RendezVan is the celebration of our amazing community of RVers, campers, and van-lifers who make the annual pilgrimage to Mt. Bachelor in the springtime to enjoy soft spring laps and sunshine. Families, skiers, riders, and all travelers are welcome — even the dogs are invited!
Not interested in camping out? All are welcome to join for the day to partake in any of the events. The festival center, including all the music, vendors, activities, and fun competitions are open and free to anyone who would like to join in on the festivities.
While the festival basecamp is packed with activities and fun — the mountain has just as much action going on! Not only will the mountain be open for skiing and riding, but RendezVan will offer various on-mountain events throughout the five days. We look forward to hosting you for RendezVan 2024!
RendezVan will also feature DJ entertainment, a silent disco and pop-up live music across the mountain. The festival area will offer food trucks, bars, and the opportunity to try axe-throwing, capture memories in a van photobooth, or relax and meditate with guided slopeside yoga. Staples to RendezVan are the beloved dog parade and the spirited Retro Threads Walk Off, so be sure to bring your furry friends and break out the best of your wardrobe.
New this year are two different paid VIP options. The $299 Daytripper VIP grants access to the private VIP area within the festival, primed for concert viewing and complete with outdoor firepits, heat lamps, complimentary hors d’ouerves and select alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages plus a commemorative VIP credential and gift. The $149 Camper VIP grants up-front festival parking plus line cutting privileges for expedited festival check-in. The Camper VIP does not include access to the VIP area within the festival.
