RV Rentals at SunFest
SunFest is a music and arts festival held in the state of Florida each year. Annually, the event attracts over 275,000 visitors, and there is live music that will play on the three stages at this waterfront festival. The very first SunFest was a 10-day event, but it is now only four days long. With that being said, visitors can still enjoy quite a bit of festivities during the time that it is in progress. Immerse yourself in art demonstrations, performances and more when you purchase an all-inclusive ticket to this event.
ACTIVITIES & ENTERTAINMENT
ON-SITE AMENITIES
Since this is an art festival as well, there are more than 80 artists around the festival grounds. You can enjoy their art and even take a piece of art home with you. In addition, there are plenty of other amenities that you can take advantage of at the festival. Become a part of the art by getting a henna tattoo, helping paint the murals or getting glitter in your hair. Along the waterfront, there is a floating bar that visitors can enjoy as well as several great vendors offering something to eat during the festival.
For those who have mobility concerns, there are wheelchairs available for rent at the festival. Each of the main stages at the event will have seating that is designed for individuals who need to use a wheelchair so that they can easily see the performances. Accessible bathrooms are located across the grounds in a few different locations. There are also assisted listening devices available at the SunFest Information Center if you require them to enjoy the festival.

With a festival like this one, traveling to the location in an RV and spending time there during the four days can be a great opportunity to enjoy quality time with your family and friends. Even if you don’t own an RV, you can always take advantage of RV rental from RVshare. This will allow you to enjoy high-end amenities without spending a lot of money on a hotel. The camping options here will accommodate larger and smaller RVs as well as tents. When you camp at this festival, you will get:
• Camping for the full SunFest for one set price
• One parking space per campsite; additional individuals with vehicles will need to park in the designated area
• Cooking space at the campsite to help save you money at the festival
If you are not planning on staying at the festival for the full four days, there are mini-fest camping options available for RVs and tents that will allow you to stay Saturday and Sunday. If you would like to arrive sooner, there are also packages you can purchase that will allow you to arrive a day or two early.
