Festivals in the USA

[tunstallhill]

Hi, can anyone recommend me a small to medium sized festival in America, either at the end of July or sometime in August, for 2019 ? 

would preferably be a festival with camping. we are doing a road trip next summer and won't have time to do a festival in the UK so are going to try and incorporate one into our trip.

currently looking at Arise festival in Colorada which looks pretty relaxed and cool. 

would really appreciate some suggestions. Cheers!

In Texas we have Float Fest July 21-22, 2018. Tickets are reasonable, there's camping and a bunch of water, as it's river-based. But it's central Texas, between Austin and San Antonio, so far away from other states by car. Still, Austin is fun to visit! https://floatfest.net/#tickets

Lollapalooza is August 2-5, no camping, and it's a huge festival... but Chicago is a great town to visit. Might be worth considering.

Here's a resource to consider: https://www.musicfestivalwizard.com/festival-guide/us-festivals/page/6/

Newport folk fest and Newport jazz fest are both right around that time and very small and relaxed. No camping though

thanks for the recommendations. i think Rhode Island is a little too far off-route but Chicago looks awesome. 

i might have to reconsider the camping, although i was looking forward to seeing some countryside
