Tent and RV camping is permitted during Desert Heat. Due to the current extreme fire hazard at the TIMPA facility, NO FIRES are permitted. Gas stove and gas grill cooking is permitted above bare dirt areas, but not in grassy areas. The camping area is located south and southeast of the bathroom facilities. Campers must be pre-registered via the SARA website.  The $30 per family camping fee covers the whole weekend and is non-refundable after the event starts





If you intend to camp, please follow these rules and conditions:


  • Due to the fire hazard around the camping area, no fires are permitted, either on the ground or in fire pits. Gas cooking is permitted in RVs or on tables over bare dirt.
  • There is no potable water on site. Bring your own water. The closest store is 13 minutes away at the Speedway at the intersection of Sandario and Picture Rocks roads.
  • There are no water or sewer hookups.
  • Flushable toilets and a sink for washing hands are available, but please do not wash pots and pans in the sink.
  • Please leave your campsite better than you found it.
