For years Cracker and Camper Van Beethoven have staged their annual west coast Campout on exactly the same day that Valparaiso Indiana stages it's annual Popcorn fest. It's been a very difficult situation for many of our midwestern fans. Do we go to Popcorn fest this year? or do we go to the campout? After hearing heartbreaking stories from so many of our fans, families torn apart, brother mano y mano against brother, we moved the Campout to the second weekend after Labor Day. Now you can go to both!!

33rd annual festival
