The official Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday music timetables are available. Thursday and Friday start at 3:15 PM, with their last listed sets ending at 2:45 AM Friday and 3:45 AM Saturday. Saturday starts at 3:15 PM and ends at 3:45 AM Sunday; Dope Lemon is printed as 10–11:30 PM Saturday. Sunday begins at 12:15 PM and ends at 11:30 PM.

2026 navigation and schedule · 2026
Yes. The organizer has published the October 22–25, 2026 festival map. It marks the festival entrance off Road 132, North/East/South festival gates, stages and camping zones. The legend identifies water stations, restrooms, medical/first aid, guest services/lost and found/ADA info, and accessible viewing and shuttles. Save the official map before arrival; it does not establish gate hours, shuttle hours or your campsite assignment.

Official resale route; exact pass and delivery restrictions still apply · 2026
Plans changed? Hulaween names CashorTrade as its official face-value ticket exchange. Choose the exact 2026 dates and pass type, and check delivery details and the total including fees before committing. A purchase request is not confirmed until a seller accepts it. Payment-plan passes must be paid in full before transfer; car passes bundled with Witch, Goblin, Vampire or Zombie packages cannot be sold or transferred separately. Sellers remain responsible for getting the purchased passes to their buyer. The partnership does not mean every wristband transfers digitally or guarantee that a listing is available.

Primitive and RV camping · 2026
Primitive camping is first come, first served; arrive together to camp together. Unassigned sites cannot be held for later arrivals. Do not block roads or use reserved spaces without the right credential. RV site occupancy is stated as four people in the event FAQ; the venue's ordinary camping limits should not override the event rule.

Early camping: confirmed opening time, unresolved GA+ prerequisite wording · 2026
The organizer FAQ, passes page and delegated Early Camping add-on now agree on Tuesday, October 20 at 2 PM ET. Early camping is a separate per-person add-on and does not replace festival admission. The FAQ requires a four-day festival pass plus Early Camping. The ticket product names four-day GA or VIP, while the organizer passes page also names GA+. GA+ holders should confirm eligibility with the organizer before relying on the add-on. This camping opening time does not establish festival gate hours or shorter-pass arrival.

GA primitive, premium and named VIP camping · 2026
Vehicle access depends on your camping choice. A Primitive Car Pass admits one car to GA primitive campgrounds. Front Gate requires four-day GA or GA+ admission for the Primitive Car and Dry RV add-ons. Each person in the vehicle also needs their own festival pass; neither add-on is festival admission. Mummy and Werewolf don't include a VIP car pass. Witch, Goblin and Vampire each include one VIP car pass; Zombie cabin and RV packages each include two Zombie car passes. Those bundled passes are assigned to your campsite and can't be sold or transferred. Premium camping includes one car and access for up to four people; each still needs four-day GA, GA+ or VIP admission. Satellite parking is outside the campgrounds. Arrive together for first-come camping; unassigned sites can't be held for friends.

Cooking and generators · 2026
Small camping grills are allowed if attended. Campfires depend on the conditions announced by the organizer. Generators are limited to designated camping in Fish Bowl or 80 Acres; ask a Camp Host where to set up. Freestanding generators may run only from 9 AM to 10 PM, and the park may remove generators that cause excessive noise or odor. Check the organizer’s latest fire guidance before lighting a campfire.

Vendors and facilities · 2026
The FAQ lists food vendors, permanent campground bathhouses/showers and ice at the Country Store, horse stables and VIP campgrounds. For outside food required by an allergy or medical condition, use the ADA dietary request form. Its conditions limit food to the necessary daily quantity for your own use, with no sharing or alcohol; food must be newly sealed, not repacked in a ziplock at home. A vendor listing is not an allergy guarantee.

Access services · 2026
Collect the free accessibility wristband at the ADA hub near Lost and Found/General Store. One companion wristband is normally issued, with an exception for families with young children. Expect roots, sand, grass and hills; mobility rentals and routine stage-to-stage rides are not offered. The 2026 accessible-camping request form is available: buy the required camping pass first and provide its order number. Spaces remain first come, first served, not guaranteed by registration. Bring the required state disability credential with its holder present. One companion vehicle must arrive with you; spaces cannot be held. Contact ADA@hulaween.com for individual arrangements.

Jacksonville airport · 2026
The independent shuttle lists October 22 Jacksonville airport departures at noon and 4 PM, and October 26 returns at 8 AM and noon. Advertised fares are $80 round trip or $45 one way, plus fees. Wheelchair-lift requests go to hulaween@charterup.com at least seven days before travel; the provider limits lift service to passengers unable to transfer out of their wheelchairs and unable to board without the lift, with at most two wheelchairs per bus. Confirm the booked return time: the round-trip class descriptions name only the outbound departure.

Independent airport shuttle; Afton order terms · 2026
Treat the airport shuttle as a separate booking. Its ticket page uses Afton, whose published policy says purchases are not refundable or exchangeable and makes cancellation refunds dependent on organizer consent. Rescheduling and the terms attached to your order can change the outcome. Check your shuttle confirmation and ask Afton support at support@aftontickets.com about that purchase; a Front Gate festival-ticket refund does not establish a shuttle refund.

General park orientation versus festival layout · 2026
Use park maps for general orientation, not as Hulaween’s event map or a campsite assignment. They do not confirm festival gates, staffed facilities or stages. Some pins, including Loop cabin locations, are estimates; some areas are staff-only. The interactive “River Road East” zone currently displays a map labeled “Music Hall Sites”; zone descriptions also disagree with some hookup labels. The rental category includes Mother Tree House, whose notes say tours only, not for rental. A generic booking button does not confirm Hulaween availability or included passes. Confirm your assigned lodging/site and hookups with the park, and use the organizer’s 2026 festival map and current arrival instructions.
