How much does it cost to camp? 

Overnight parking is not generally allowed but if you need to leave your car overnight due to having so much fun at the beer gardens or the weekend dances the IPE agrees with your decision not to drive home and leave your vehicle overnight. IPE is not responsible for theft or damages. Please leave valuables left out of sight.

Whatever works for you! Whether you’re bringing a tent, trailer, motorhome, van, or even just your car, you’re welcome here. We’re all about making camping accessible, no matter how you roll in.

Parking is $10/day!

You can find the paid IPE parking lot off Wood Avenue. If you miss this parking lot, don’t worry there is a lot more paid parking all around the area! All vehicles must be parked in designated areas only. These areas will be clearly marked and include Main Parking Lot, Exhibitor Parking, and VIP Parking. No parking is permitted outside these designated areas. Armstrong does get busy during the fair. The downtown area does have parking but be aware of businesses that need their parking stalls for their own customers. If you are planning on coming to the fair all day, then consider paid parking through one of the many parking areas surrounding the fairgrounds. There are several groups including Girl Guides, Armstrong Elementary and Highland Park schools that also have parking during the fair.
