The Governors Ball Music Festival is an exciting, three-day annual celebration that music lovers adore. This festival lineup includes a variety of music genres, including rock, electronic, hip-hop, indie, Americana, pop, and folk, meaning there is truly something for everyone at this event.
Besides an amazing and varied collection of musicians, Governors Ball also makes a point of providing guests with some amazing food and drink, as well as plenty of games and activities.

You’ll also get to experience unannounced pop-up performances throughout the weekend!

RVING AT THE EVENT
Unfortunately, RVing at the festival itself is not possible. That said, surprisingly enough, there are a couple of nearby RV parks which make it possible to camp nearby. Choosing to RV during your visit to Governors Ball is a great way to save some money and will allow you to return to a comfy bed, a full kitchen, and a private bathroom each night.
Try one of these parks for RV camping in NYC:
Liberty Harbor RV Park — Technically located in New Jersey, this park is a short ferry ride away from the hustle and bustle of the Big Apple. While it is a bit pricey, the location is wonderful, and it includes water, electric, and a dump station.
Camp Gateway at Floyd Bennett Field — This park is located in Brooklyn and really isn’t much more than a parking lot, as no hookups are included. That said, it is very affordable, showers and flushing toilets are available for guest use, a bus stop is within walking distance, and the view from the lot is beautiful at night.
Don’t have an RV of your own? Renting from RVshare is always a great option!
WHERE TO STAY
Because this event is held in NYC, you can rest assured there are plenty of places to stay nearby. There are, of course, the RV parks and camping options mentioned above, but there are also plenty of hotels, hostels, and even homes for rent.
We recommend checking a website such as Hotels.com to find affordable rates and the amenities you want.
Another great option is to check sites such as Airbnb.com for houses, flats, and bedrooms for rent. This can be a great way to save some money, and many people find themselves more comfortable in a home than in a hotel.
