Quiet Valley Homecoming is a campout, not a traditional festival.Join us at Quiet Valley Ranch October 23–25, 2026 for a relaxed fall weekend of camping, campfires, community-led gatherings, a few hosted activities, and plenty of room to make your own fun. Ticket-holders may arrive as early as noon on Thursday, October 22, at no additional cost, but please do not arrive before noon on Thursday.
There will not be a full festival-style music lineup or the usual programming structure. Instead, camps are encouraged to host their own song circles, hoot nights, shared meals, workshops, art projects, storytelling sessions, and other grassroots gatherings throughout the weekend.
We’ll also have a few special activities of our own, including the Quiet Valley Homecoming Chili Cookoff on Saturday, with Meat Chili and Vegetarian Chili categories and camp-to-camp public tasting.
Tickets:
Weekend passes are $35 per person online in advance or $40 at the gate. There are no single-day tickets, so the same price applies whether you stay for the whole weekend or just come for the day.
Kids 12 and under are free. Teen tickets for ages 13–17 are $20 at the gate and must be purchased by a parent or guardian.
The weekend pass is a small impact fee that helps cover the costs of having everyone back on the Ranch, including dumpsters, portable toilets and pumping, water, electricity, and other basic site expenses. This fee applies to all attendees, with no comps or guest passes available for this event. We’ve intentionally kept the price as low as possible so everyone can pitch in toward the cost of the weekend without breaking the bank.
Camping:
Homecoming is intended to be a fairly self-sufficient camping weekend. Think of it a little like camping at a state park, only with more friends, music, food, and things happening around the campground.
Basic electricity for lights, fans, and device charging is included. RV sites are available separately through the ticket portal for $20 for the weekend, subject to availability.
Please do not arrive at the Ranch before noon on Thursday, October 22.
