Is camping what it used to be?

Hello Ive been going to renfest all my life but just stared camping there maybe 3-4 years ago. I noticed the first 2 times we camped that it was crazy (in the best way) and there was definitely a lot more to see and experience. Last year though I found it hard to see and experience as many things. I saw a lot less raves and if they were there they were super small. Is this a temporary thing or is this just how it's gonna be from now on?

Also we want to meet more people to hang outwith so please lmk!

Rideshare from IAH to TRF Campsite?

Hello TRF campers!

I am a (relative) frequent flyer of the TRF campgrounds, but this will be the first year I have more people than I can fit in my car (with all the camping gear). To top it off they will be flying in from out of town with arrivals a bit scattered day and time wise—we synched up as best we reasonably could, so some folks can double or triple up in the ride share.

Does anyone know how feasible it is to grab a rideshare to the campgrounds Thursday or Friday and out again to IAH Monday? Or have any advice to do so?

I am assuming they will need to be dropped off before the gate due to ticket checks, but I can easily drive to the entrance or the convenience store/gas station down the road for a pick up. Additionally, a rental car seemed a bit extreme as we will have transport as I can drive as needed once we’re set up at the campsite.

I’m trying to avoid multiple 2+ hour round trips to the airport so we all can focus on enjoying the festivities and not stress about transport.

Thanks!

The Amber Room Online Shop or Artisan Contact

All,

Every year my partner and I would go and purchase something from the Amber Room. Recently, their first and favorite item was lost into the ocean. We can't go this year, and was wondering if any affiliates, during the season or off-season, had a way to get contacted so we could replace it.

Thanks!

LF people to hang out with on 1001 Dreams and All Hallows Eve weekends

I recently moved into the area from Dallas and only live 15 minutes from the fairgrounds. Sadly I don't have many friends down here that enjoy this so I would love to find a group of people to hang out with on these weekends (or before if you live in the Houston area)! I'll be getting the camping pass access and will also have Saturday and Sunday tickets.

Looking for shops with tiaras, circlets, or crowns!

I love all things fantasy and just got engaged!! I want to have a fairytale wedding (at Renfest, in the future :D), and I thought, what better place to find a tiara fit for a princess than at Renfest itself? Please help me narrow down the shops to figure out which I should look for when I go to visit, a lot of the shops listed on the website that are listed under jewelry and adornment don't have websites!

How does one join a clan?

Interested in seeing what Call of Booty is about! We’re a 30yo couple from Houston that’s been visiting ren fest since 2018 and have yet to camp but am interested in camping for the first time this year. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks y’all!
