When you think about going camping with your family, you might have mixed feelings. Sure, there’s some fun times, but when your mom starts complaining about how cold it is and your brother won’t help cook—it might be better to find a new family, like the one at Family Vacation 3: A Music Festival. It’s a camping, musical weekend-extravaganza featuring dozens of artists performing over three days. Expect Kurt Travis, Mookatite, Seafloor Cinema, Wolf & Bear, Pregnant, Big Sticky Mess and a whole lot more. There’s camping, artwork, vendors and, best of all, none of the emotional baggage that you’ve got with your real family. 6045 Rafters Lane in Placerville, facebook.com/familyvacationmusicfest.
