SPLICE RECORDS & SAINT ARNOLD BREWING COMPANY BRING YOU TEXAS’ MOST INTIMATE AND INCLUSIVE ANNUAL CAMPING & MUSIC FESTIVAL

River Revival, the annual camping and independent music festival collaboration between Splice Records and Saint Arnold Brewing Company, is the most accommodating and exciting festival in Texas history. 

With pristine campgrounds, the mighty Guadalupe and live music from all over Texas, our goal is to be the most fun music festival that does almost everything different from other events. First off, each admission includes an all-inclusive ticket providing every attendee with the unique experience of not being continuously haggled by steep festival prices. 

Meals and camping are all included in the ticket price and please feel free to bring your own cooler and camping supplies. With your admission we offer an impeccable food program, amazing music, live art installations and of course we have something most fest do not have... the mighty Guadalupe River.

WHO ATTENDS RIVER REVIVAL

Nature lovers, music goers, river-rats, camping enthusiasts, foodies and festival followers make up the campgrounds. We often hear back from our attendees that the campgrounds are filled with nice and very cool people. Families with children are more than welcome to attend (children age 12 or under are free and do not count toward package capacity). 

If you choose to bring your child, we highly suggest you select a campsite between sites 70 to 60 On The River or Cliffside as it is the furthest from live entertainment at any hour. You will also be required to sign a personal responsibility waiver at check in.

CAMPING INFORMATION

RV / Camper / Motorhome *NEW 2023 POLICY*

NEW FOR THIS YEAR - River Revival is handling all of the RV and Camper rentals and providing onsite maintenance (9am-9pm)! In the past we allowed attendees to rent RV's and campers from Third Party vendors that would deliver the RV/Camper to KL Campgrounds ahead of the attendee. For myriad reasons, this has become an untenable arrangement and this change should make the entire experience easier. If you would like to RENT an RV/Camper for the festival and have it delivered and waiting for you, You MUST NOW USE our Glamping Experience Upgrade. Please select either the Glamping Experience ADD ON or the new Super Duper Glamping Experience ADD ON.

NOTE: This policy change DOES NOT affect those attendees who own an RV/Camper and drive it onto the campgrounds themselves or who have rented and picked up an RV/Camper and drive it onto the campgrounds themselves.

If you are bringing your own RV/Camper/Motorhome to River Revival please make sure you reserve a Group Package that has the proper 30/50 amp plugin options. 

ONLY ONE RV / CAMPER / MOTORHOME PER SITE

Most RV sites have water but some do not and those sites are a bit smaller and cost less. All the RV sites have 30 Amp electrical plug-ins, most have water connections; 50 amp sites are also available but limited. Generators are NOT welcome and we ask that all RV/Campers do not run their generator for power. Please note that one can Reserve a 50 or 30 Amp RV site and choose not to bring or use an RV/Motorhome/Camper. You may simply pitch tents on the premium sites. Please read ALL descriptions.

Tent Camping

You are welcome to setup as many tents as are necessary to accommodate your party.

GA Passes on the River or Cliffside will offer communal camping on shared sites, so pack lightly as it is shared space and campsites. All sites even if specified with 30 or 50 amps can be suited for tent camping as well they just cost more due to upgraded amenities. And there is plenty of tent camping that can also be done at Cliffside and the price is right over there #ALWAYS #CLIFFSIDEISCOOL

WHEN IS RIVER REVIVAL

We annually schedule the festival on the last full weekend of September as the river’s peak season has ended and there are less people on the river. The nights are a tad bit cooler, allowing for good tent camping conditions and the river is ideal for when that Texas sun gets high in the sky. We also do our smaller, "half way to the Revival" event called River Retreat on the last full weekend of March. To learn more click Here. This year's River Revival is scheduled for:

4 Days and 3 Nights - Thursday, September 28th through Sunday, October 1st, 2023.
