To counteract paying each day for ice, definitely look into adding some bagged dry ice to your coolers. If you're diligent at keeping the lids closed on them, the dry ice can last for all the days you are camped there.
@@sydneyg6444 I'm coming from Los Angeles, so I usually stop at Cold Star Ice in San Bernardino. Though I believe there are some Supermarkets where you can purchase it as well.
Be careful with dry ice. Don't keep your cooler in a small enclosed space (e.g., your tent) because as the dry ice sublimates, that is, turns from solid to CO2 gas, it can kill you.
Port-a-potty tip: They are usually all situated in a large area with one big entrance/exit. Use the ones that are furthest away. People are lazy and use the ones closest to the entrance. In my experience they are the cleanest.
GREAT TIPS! Taking my 14 year old daughter car camping to Coachella-our first time this year! We know NO ONE going, so it’s great to hear there are fun, large groups like your that are welcoming to meeting new people 🎉
This is going to be my first Coachella, mostly bought a weekend two ticket as a last minute thing since it wasn’t selling well this year. I just wanted to ask how is exiting once everything is over? Do most people leave Sunday night or do a lot people wait until Monday morning since it’s so crowded
I was definitely making breakfast eggs bacon sandwiches. Dry ice is a good idea and make sure you secure your stuff because the wind will come unexpectedly and your shit will fly away. Not fun!!
I would rather show up Thursday afternoon and be in the last row, then pulling all nighter and have to sleep in that daytime heat. Walking 15 minutes. Each way is better than driving all night and then not being able to sleep all day.
Caaaaaannot wait for W1!!! Car camping is the best. I’m taking my gf and her sister. This will be their 1st time going and my 3rd. So stoked for them to experience it 😍
i’ve been both, but i do prefer weekend 1 because the anticipation of waiting for weekend 2 while you try not to have everything spoiled for you is SOOO tough lol
Sorry for the silly question but this is my first Coachella and I can't find an answer: is the car camping an actual pass that comes in the mail like the wristbands? I am only 10 days from weekend 2 and I still dont have my wristbands yet! I've been to several other big festivals and I've never had this little communication/support from an event
The car camping pass is a separate physical pass that essentially Is a sticker you’ll put on your windshield. It ships separately from the wristbands in a white envelope! If you don’t receive your wristbands, you’re going to have to go to Will Call to pick up your wristbands there. My roommate had her wristbands sent to the wrong address so I have to drop her off at Will Call, then drive her car into the campgrounds with the rest of my group so we can get a good spot
@@iamtylerwells what if I can’t get the car pass in the mail in time but still pay for one? I hope my wristbands arrive soon, that sounds like a logistical nightmare
See you there! I used to go every year but life happened and I've been so busy! The old crew is back together and we'll be car camping weekend 1! My 6th Coachella!!
I read on the website that they don't allow coolers. Do they allow you to bring a cooler into your car camping area with ice already in there when you arrive? Just not the actual venue? (which makes sense). Thanks for such a helpful video!! Going weekend 2! Have fun :))
Wonderful video Tyler! Hope to say Hi to you and your crew, weekend one. I’ll be in the preferred camping site with an inflatable yellow ducky on top of my car.
Good tips for sure, it’s my third time going and just needed a refresher with what to take. Definitely learned the hard way about the ez up and wind situation. Luckily they let me leave to buy a new one and re enter. Super cool about it
"You're not gonna be fuckin' cooking Filet mignon" that killed me. Have car camped multiple times and yes! this is the best tips video I have seen. Might not go again until next year so will miss all those tents flying around at night and the no sleep noise. Great video! :D
my idea with the "mirror". Look at the outfit on BEFORE you leave. See how you like it. Day of, Take full body selfies of everyone. (no posing for them, as you want to see what you look like when you stand normally) and then you can critique the photo.
Hi Tyler! I loved your video, very informative. I'm trying to get people together last minute but everyone is being flakey. I don't know how safe it is for just 2 girl camping? Can you elaborate?
thank you Kim! I it’s extremely safe, I would say. You’re surrounded by tons of people, in such close proximity in the campgrounds and there’s tons of security guards walking through at any given point. I’ve never felt unsafe!
Ill be there with my youngest sister weekend one, this is my first year camping and I appreciate your video. Ill be down to meet up, enjoy some flower,. Mel M
This was such a helpful video!!!! I do have one question though… I saw a clip of you guys cooking on a grill are those allowed???? I’m going to stagecoach and car camping for the first time. So excited but also nervous on what to bring!
omg THANK YOU SOOOOOOO MUCH, we are coming from Atlanta and San Diego and this video is GODSENT! we are camping and kinda clueless about it so, this is a much-needed help. Can't wait to see some good artists there and vibe out. See ya there cuttie
Hey Tyler I’m from Texas going to Coachella for the first time I was thinking about car camping but should I buy a tent when I land in cali or bring one onto a plane ?
Usually, yes, however, this year they screwed up the process for car camping, I heard they had new organizers and it was a mess. The line got all out of order and we were there early, yet got out super far. That’s the good thing about Weekend 2 though is they fix all that crap by then!
Cracked me up with the stanky ass comment. Now i work Monday thru Friday (plan to leave around 2-3 after work) so i imagine I’m better off buying the preferred parking for $100 more
Yes there’s charging stations but they’re a waste of time when there’s a million fun things going on! They take forever so you don’t wanna be sitting at a charging station for hours
There’s a spot to park your car and another space to put your tent/easy up. Think of it like having a slightly larger parking space for your car and another empty one right in front of it. Having only one car camping space does make it a little squished to function, but yes you can put a tent and easy up. An easy up is a must have. I’m not sure if he mentioned but NO GLASS BOTTLES of any sort. Hard alcohol is allowed just put it in plastic. You can definitely bring in more than one case of beer. I brought in like 4 solo.
Hey Tyler! So I'm not going to Coachella, but I am going to Stagecoach the following weekend.. Am I guaranteed a spot even if we were to show up Friday morning? We are in a crunch and didn't plan ahead at all lol so I'm hoping we can still at least have a spot if we show up friday at like 8am lol. We aren't in any rush to see artists on day 1. I know you said expect to walk 15-20 minutes if you are in a bad spot, which I don't really mind sacrificing, but do you know anyone who's gotten there that late and how it was for them?? We are also taking a full size truck.. Hope to hear back, thanks!
My friend came late on Friday and was just put in a super far camping spot… if you don’t mind that, then you’re good! You def will be able to get a camp spot
Hi! great video so much good info. Do they say anything about showering at the campsite because of all the water on the ground? I was thinking of bringing like a kiddie pool. Thank youuuu.
Not at all, the grass does get a little mushy but it’s usually so hot there it dries up quickly 🤣 I’m not sure if kiddie pools are allowed, but I’ve def seen people bring them at Stagecoach
There are bamboo/wooden crates or even like rubber mats you can buy for that specifically. I highly recommend doing so. As far as the kiddie pool. Don’t lol we brought a hot tub one year and it was cool in theory, but was a disaster lol
Ok so I'm flying in from Canada and renting a SUV (there's 2 of us). We were planning to sleep in the car with cracks in the windows and a breathable car cover. We don't have time to buy a tent/canopy and also won't have anything to do with it once the festival is done as we are going straight back to LAX. Is this possible or will everyone be sleeping in tents?
That’s totally fine! Do you have car camping passes? You literally could even sleep next to your car outside on the lawn. Sleeping in the SUV is fine also, it might just get hot in the mornings when the sun comes up but it’s the same deal for tents haha
I bring my suv every year. I lay down the back seats. It leaves more room to pack and once I unload and set up I use the empty space in the truck to create our bed with a lot of blankets and pillows . It also leaves more space for you to set up your area.
Amazing video 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Coming from you, Coachella king?! I’ve been watching your videos for years! Thank you!

Where can you get dry ice from?
@@sydneyg6444 I'm coming from Los Angeles, so I usually stop at Cold Star Ice in San Bernardino. Though I believe there are some Supermarkets where you can purchase it as well.
@@sydneyg6444 Smart&Final usually has it, you just gotta ask the attendants at the front. You can't grab it yourself.
Be careful with dry ice. Don't keep your cooler in a small enclosed space (e.g., your tent) because as the dry ice sublimates, that is, turns from solid to CO2 gas, it can kill you.

They also have free shuttles that takes you to and from Vons and Staterbros!
Thank you for posting this! Probably one of the most informative ones I’ve seen so far. Super excited to witness my first coachella!
No problem! If you have any additional questions, I’m here to help. See you in the desert! 🌵
I was definitely making breakfast eggs bacon sandwiches. Dry ice is a good idea and make sure you secure your stuff because the wind will come unexpectedly and your shit will fly away. Not fun!!
Hell yeah car camping is the ultimate Coachella experience in all its horror and glory! Xoxo have fun babe!
I would rather show up Thursday afternoon and be in the last row, then pulling all nighter and have to sleep in that daytime heat. Walking 15 minutes. Each way is better than driving all night and then not being able to sleep all day.
Thank you for the links!! This is so helpful. Hope you have an amazing Coachella if you are going this year 😊
SUPER HELPFUL!! Going for the first time and camping for the first time so should be interesting but I think I’m prepared now!

“You’re not gonna be cooking fucking filet mignon!” Bahahaha 🤣🤣 this made my day
i blacked out at camp, fell asleep and missed the entire day 2 of Coachella 2019 🙃😆 it’s a marathon not a sprint friends
Caaaaaannot wait for W1!!! Car camping is the best. I’m taking my gf and her sister. This will be their 1st time going and my 3rd. So stoked for them to experience it 😍

Omg thank you so much for this I watched like 5 other videos and I was so bored yours was short and sweet and I love to be clean too lol!!! ❤️❤️❤️
What about lighting? Do you bring battery lights, string lights, or ?
Solar powered string lights are great!
Good tips for sure, it’s my third time going and just needed a refresher with what to take. Definitely learned the hard way about the ez up and wind situation. Luckily they let me leave to buy a new one and re enter. Super cool about it
Thaaaank u! This was great

My dumbass bought the ticket without thinking about where to stay.. now I have to stay with random people thus year 🤣

Hey Tyler I’m from Texas going to Coachella for the first time I was thinking about car camping but should I buy a tent when I land in cali or bring one onto a plane ?
if you can check it, bring one! if not, you can buy one while you’re out here
About checking in early... would you say the FIRST people in line get the best spots?
Usually, yes, however, this year they screwed up the process for car camping, I heard they had new organizers and it was a mess. The line got all out of order and we were there early, yet got out super far. That’s the good thing about Weekend 2 though is they fix all that crap by then!
"your not gonna be cooking f-ing filet minion when your there" i am dead LOL. i want to go anywhere with this guy
Hey! The campsite is 10x30 is that taken up by your vehicle at all or is that entire square footage for the campsite?
Hi! Those dimensions include your vehicle
Thank You Very Helpful! First Time Going To Coachella Next Week ! Very Excited ! 😄
See you Weekend 1! Thank you for all the tips, I may go car camping next Coachella forsure
Coachella 1st timer & I can’t wait for April
Cracked me up with the stanky ass comment. Now i work Monday thru Friday (plan to leave around 2-3 after work) so i imagine I’m better off buying the preferred parking for $100 more
Yes definitely if it’s still available!
IM SELLING 2 GA+SHUTLLE.. WEEKEND 1 TICKETS
Is there not a place to charge our phones? Or for electricity whatsoever?
Yes there’s charging stations but they’re a waste of time when there’s a million fun things going on! They take forever so you don’t wanna be sitting at a charging station for hours
How does the alcohol to person ratio work? I’m confused on if we’re allowed to bring in liquor or just beer? LMAO
You’re allowed one case of beer per person (no glass) and you can bring liquor just transfer it to a plastic container
Tysm for making this video! I feel less anxious about my first Coachella ❤️
Hey mate, very informative thank you
Thanks, great info! See you this weekend!
I’m car camping, it’s gonna be my first Time, See you at Coachella
OMG J Lo I’m your biggest fan!?
Great tips! Thanks for the video, Tyler. Hope you had a lot of fun during Weekend One!
Hi, this was super helpful - thank you!
Will I have space to put up both a tent and an easy up in a single car camping spot?
Also, is the one beer box rule allowed rule per person or per car? What about hard alc?
There’s a spot to park your car and another space to put your tent/easy up. Think of it like having a slightly larger parking space for your car and another empty one right in front of it.

I've been car camping twice and was looking to see how I can improve this year. This has been the best video I've found by far.
Thank you so much!!!

Glad it was helpful!
Thank you ❤❤❤

See you weekend one!
Is there a place to park bicycles safely?
this, I’m not sure… sorry!

For car camping, can you sleep in the car or do you still need a tent?
You can totally sleep in your car!
I saw they said no rugs allowed, are they rlly strict on that ? If so what would you recommend to bring instead to place on the floor
Buy a few large picnic/beach blankets. They also come in handy inside the tent. Plus you can get some really cool ones too
Just bring beach towels or blankets!
See you there. Thanks for the tips!
See you there man!!
Well done brother.
Ok so I'm flying in from Canada and renting a SUV (there's 2 of us). We were planning to sleep in the car with cracks in the windows and a breathable car cover.
