Suwannee Hulaween is finally here, so we’ve created a guide with everything you need to know before you go.
Suwannee Hulaween is officially sold out this year, and excitement is through the roof for the festival’s 10th-anniversary celebration under the Harvest Moon. Set times are out, campers are packing their bags, and plenty of ambitious Hula-goers are already set up at the Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park. With huge plans in store for the anniversary — including the biggest and most immersive Spirit Lake installment yet — it’s set to be an unforgettable Hulaween weekend.
While the forecast looks incredible in Live Oak this week, a seasoned camper knows to pack for any and all surprises. Make sure to bring plenty of extra clothes, nighttime layers, and rain gear for your campsite. If you haven’t secured yours already, car passes, and early arrival options for the day of your choosing will be available to purchase at the gate when you arrive.
The Spirit of the Suwannee has a permanent general store on site — it’s even marked on the map. If you forget something like a piece of camping gear, bug spray, or ear protection, or just need to grab a bag of ice, you can do all of that, plus some at the Country Store. More frequently asked questions were recently answered on the Suwannee Hulaween Facebook page. Be sure to check if you have any questions you don’t see answered on their website, and keep reading for set times, maps, prohibited items, and essential info!

Reminder to Mind Your Belongings:
Unfortunately, during this festival season, many have reported pickpockets, and bag slashings, as well as theft of wallets, smartphones, purses, and other valuables. While this small number of bad apples in the bunch doesn’t define an entire crowd, some opportunistic people come to these events to take advantage of unsuspecting partygoers. It’s essential to be mindful of your valuables while at Suwannee Hulaween.
