Each year at the end of summer, we head to the southern end of the Sierras to camp and party with our friends on the Kern River, and you’re invited!

Centrally located in the small, but friendly town of Kernville, Frandy Campground is easy walking distance to bars, restaurants and supplies.

FOR YOUR $120 YOU GET:

First come, first served camping Friday and Saturday nights
Goodie bag upon check-in
Beer and booze each night at the Kamp bar (until it runs out)
Route maps and tips for day excursions
Yard games Friday and Saturday afternoon
Live music Saturday night
Automatic inclusion into the informal bike show Saturday
A hangover on Sunday morning to take home

MAP

Advance tickets are $120 per person and this covers your camping for two nights. If you just want to camp one night, it's the same cost. (We gotta pay for the campground for the whole weekend no matter how many nights you show up.) We are limiting the number of tickets and will not be selling "day of" tickets at the gate. This means your check in process will be faster and the campground won't get overcrowded.

Ride. Camp. Party.

Event Schedule

Camping is first-come, first-served so show up anytime after noon on Friday and grab a spot. Be prepared to share with other riders. This ain’t no motorhome party, so cars, trucks and RV’s will be parked in a designated lot inside the Frandy property but not in the camping area itself. The actual camping area is reserved for motorcyclists only. (And the occasional trike, of
course.)

50 miles from Bakersfield. 200 from Orange County. 150 from LA. 300 from Sacramento, and 500 from Phoenix. Either way, it’s closer than Sturgis and a lot more fun!
