Set times are posted in the days leading up to the festival.

Check ratesAirbnb & private camping
Long Beach has an active downtown/waterfront Airbnb market. No Day Trip Festival-specific pricing or surge data is available. General downtown Long Beach short-term-rental inventory is otherwise active.
Search AirbnbHipcamp lists camping/glamping/RV options in the wider Long Beach area (per Hipcamp's own directory), though as a dense urban waterfront neighborhood, genuinely nearby options are thin and skew toward inland Los Angeles/Orange County drives rather than anything walkable to the venue, a car-hire-adjacent option, not a walkable one.
