Get out your day planners, open your calendar app and get ready to glamp where the action is act over the next couple months. We’ve rounded up some great festivals and events happening near our glamping locations so you can be smack dab in the middle of all the fun and excitement.
Two of the most anticipated music festivals each year are Coachella and Stagecoach, both held at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, California which is less than 20 miles from the fabulous colorful cottages at our glamping location, Thousand Trails Palm Springs, in Palm Desert. Coachella will run April 11 through April 20, while Stagecoach is set for April 25-27. Coachella headliners include Lady Gaga, Green Day and Post Malone while Stagecoach country stars scheduled include Jelly Roll, Zach Bryan and Shaboozey.
If you’re into flowers and we mean lots of them, consider a visit to the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival and a glamping getaway to Thousand Trails La Conner. A 15-mile triangle of fields of blooming tulips is a sight to see and come this April, that’s what you’ll find at this Washington location. Visit tulipfestival.org for all the details but this month-long celebration promises not only the fabulous tulip fields but also a Tulip Parade, art exhibitions, and the Tulip Festival Street Fair.
It’s Apple Blossom Time in Wenatchee, Washington as they host the Washington State Apple Blossom Festival April 24-May 4. Complete with a Food Festival, a beauty pageant, live entertainment and the Blossom and Brews Beer Garden, this event is the perfect way to celebrate spring blossoms while enjoying the accommodations of a tiny house at the Leavenworth Tiny House Village in nearby Leavenworth.
May does really kick off barbeque season and there may be no better place to celebrate than at Madison, Wisconsin’s World’s Largest Brat Fest, set for May 24, 2025. It’s everything you would expect from a festival celebrating bratwurst including brat-eating contests, cooking demonstrations, live music and carnival rides. Book a glamping cabin or cottage at nearby Blackhawk Campground or Lakeland Campground to take a bite out of this event!
If you want to really get to know Beale Street, Memphis’ top destination, then perhaps the Memphis in May International Festival, another month-long celebration that is guaranteed to immerse visitors in the culture, history and culinary delights that is Beale Street, should be on your list. A glamping cabin accommodation at Thousand Trails Cherokee Landing puts you about 60 miles from all the fun (and promises peace and quiet after a day’s events on Beale Street). The festival features a World Championship Barbecue Cooking Contest and the Beale Street Music Festival with local and international artists performing.
