More details on the official Agenda and FAQs.
Camp!
Enjoy 2 nights of camping at the beautiful Calabogie Peaks Resort, located in Calabogie Ontario. Bring your rig and show off your kit while sharing what you’ve learned throughout your build experience and travels. Attendees will enjoy their own 20’x30′ (approximately sized) camp spot.
With 3 different camping areas, attendees can choose where they would love to call home for the weekend. Individual sites can’t be reserved, but should you be travelling with a group of 3 or more rigs and wish to be close to each other, please contact us at info@overlandnth.ca and we will do our best to accommodate your requests. Any requests to be grouped together must be made more than 30 calendar days before the event and you can only be put in a group with people who bought a ticket for the same camping area. Within 30 days of the event we are no longer able to facilitate group camping requests (but you can arrange to arrive together and pick spots that are close to each other).
Toilets, hand washing stations and potable water are provided along with fire bowls and wood for warmth and comfort. Showers are NOT provided so please come prepared. The event is happening rain or shine so be ready.
**Camping spots are reserved for campers and not vendors. Should you wish to be an exhibitor and sell your merchandise at the event please contact us at info@overlandnth.ca and a member of our team will be in touch!
