The experience

What's special

Country Summer Music Festival is held at the Sonoma County Fairgrounds, 1350 Bennett Valley Road in Santa Rosa, California. The 2026 festival ran over three days, from Friday 12 to Sunday 14 June. The campground sits in Lot D, across a public street from the festival area.

How it works

In 2026 gates opened at 3:00 PM on Friday 12 June and at noon on Saturday 13 and Sunday 14 June, and a ticket was required for entry. The venue has no re-entry, most food and beverage vendors are going cashless, alcohol sales are limited to guests 21 and older, and a clear bag policy applies. Campsites in Lot D cost $165 for up to four nights, Thursday to Monday, and include one vehicle. Sites are 20 feet by 20 feet with no electricity, water or sewer, and up to six people may stay at each, with general parking at the fairgrounds at $20 to $30 per car.

Who it suits

Children three and under are free with a ticketed adult, and strollers can be parked in a designated area behind the chairs in the Reserved Seat area. Alcohol sales are limited to guests 21 and older.

Getting there

Nearest airport STS.

How do I get to Country Summer Music Festival?

By car

Most people drive to Country Summer Music Festival. The nearest major airport is STS, and from there it is a straightforward drive to the venue. Check current road and traffic conditions before you set off, and see parking below.

By train
SMART (Sonoma-Marin Area Rail Transit) + SMART Connect airport shuttle~30-45 min total: shuttle leg + ~10-12 min train ride + the 1.4-mile last-mile leg to the fairgrounds · SMART Connect shuttle $1.50 adult one-way ($0.75 youth/senior/disabled) + SMART train zone fare ~$3.50-$5.50 adult one-way (Clipper card or SMART eTickets app)

STS is one of the few small regional airports with a genuine rail link: SMART Connect, an on-demand microtransit shuttle booked via the Ride Pingo app, runs 7 days a week 8am-6pm between the airport terminal and the SMART Sonoma County Airport rail station. From there SMART trains run south to Santa Rosa Downtown station (Railroad Square) in about 10-12 minutes. The fairgrounds venue is then ~1.4 miles from the downtown station, a 25-30 min walk, a short rideshare, or a local CityBus hop. Note the SMART Connect shuttle's 6pm cutoff if landing on an evening flight.

Book / info
By bus & public transit
FlixBus / Greyhound (intercity coach, for SFO/OAK fly-ins)~2h10m San Francisco to Santa Rosa, plus the short local leg to the venue · From ~$19-24 one-way, booked in advance

Relevant to the many attendees who fly into San Francisco (SFO) or Oakland (OAK) instead of little STS: FlixBus (which also operates Greyhound) runs San Francisco (409 Townsend St) to Santa Rosa, arriving at the downtown Santa Rosa stop at 555 1st St, about 0.9 miles / 15-20 min walk from the fairgrounds, or a very short rideshare. Roughly a 2h-2h15m coach ride from SF.

Book / info
Santa Rosa CityBus (local) + Sonoma County Transit (airport corridor)Varies; plan ~45-75 min total from the airport with transfers · CityBus $1.50 adult cash fare per ride. Sonoma County Transit fares are distance-based, roughly $1.50-$4.80

Sonoma County Transit buses stop near the airport at Airport Blvd & Regional Parkway and connect the airport corridor to central Santa Rosa. Within town, Santa Rosa CityBus operates from the Downtown Transit Mall (2nd St, near the SMART downtown station). Route 8 'Bennett Valley' serves the Bennett Valley Rd corridor where the fairgrounds sit. Practical for the last-mile leg after the SMART train more than as a one-seat airport ride, there is no direct single bus from the STS terminal to the fairgrounds gate.

Book / info
Taxi & rideshare
Uber, Lyft, and local taxis~15-20 min in normal traffic · ~$20-35 one-way typical off-peak fare band for the ~8-mile STS-to-fairgrounds run (no festival-specific fare posted officially); expect surge pricing at post-show peak

Uber has operated at STS since May 2019. Lyft and taxis also serve the airport. Pickup and drop-off is the curbside loading zone directly in front of the terminal, no separate rideshare lot at this small airport. At the festival end, use the official rideshare zone: the median lot across from Gate 2 under the freeway (see parking block). Straightforward ~8-mile run down US-101 to the fairgrounds.

Book / info

Taxis and rideshare such as Uber and Lyft can be limited near the venue, especially late at night or in rural areas. Agree a pickup point and time in advance and keep a backup plan.

RV

Matches the live file's camping.types ['rv-hookups']: a separate, application-based RV campground managed by the Sonoma County Event Center offers powered 30-amp and 50-amp spots, 'prices vary by site type', booked by submitting the RV application (confirmation within 72 hours). Powered spots are scarce and sell out well before the festival. The fairgrounds' year-round RV park (1500 Aston Ave; 159 sites, full hookups, $33-$70/night) is the walk-to-the-gate fallback once festival RV spots are gone.
