in your timezone
the vibes shouldn't end just because the clock says so..

There’s a moment every festival day when time taps you on the shoulder.

Finish your drink. Check the hour. Start thinking about the ride... Hits lowkey at first. Then it owns you. You gotta leave just when it gets good. You wait for everyone when you’re already done. You plan. You sync. You set alarms. Even here, you’re still on their clock.

Now imagine the opposite.

No last bus to catch. No group to gather. No “we should go now.” One more song. Then another. Then sunrise. You vibe at your own pace.

By staying inside the festival, you get rid of the daily commute between Cluj-Napoca and Bonțida and everything that comes with it.

Because the best moments at Electric Castle don’t happen on schedule. They happen when you forget about time completely.

That’s EC Village.

Where to sleep

Sleep close. Very close. And wake up when your body does, not when your alarm insists.
Scroll down and check out all the camping options.

Camping

All friends in one place

Why share just a few hours with friends when you can vibe 24/7? Camping isn't just a crash spot, it's sunrise-to-sunrise bonding, living that full festival glow-up. They say it's the rawest way to live the festival, and they're probably right. Pitch your own tent or skip the setup hassle with our pre-pitched ones.

Festival Pass + Camping Pass are mandatory for each person.

Get camping

Car Camping

Less commuting. More fun

Imagine a little parcel of 3x8 meter to park your car, pitch a tent and set up anything else you might need to feel cozy.

Car Camping ticket + Festival Pass + Camping Pass are mandatory for each person.

RV Camping

Your base camp round the corner

Bring your home on wheels at the festival and park it in a designated area of the EC Village. You will have a power source, a water source nearby (you'll need your own hose), wastewater discharge, and a chemical toilet discharge point.

RV Camping ticket + Festival Pass + Camping Pass are mandatory for each participant.

Glamping

City comfort at any moment

And just like that... all the comfort you found by staying in a hotel room or a house in the city is wasted on endless drives to the festival. The real luxury lays in making the best out of every minute. Enjoy the freedom and comfort in a quieter area of EC Village.

Valid accommodation ticket, a Festival Pass + Camping Pass are mandatory for each person sleeping in all the accommodation structures.

Our tips

Traveling light sounds about right

You will have to carry your stuff from the parking area or the bus station to EC Village and back.

That’s 10 to 20min walk round trip. Pack smart, bring what’s necessary. Wanna get there as cheap as possible, as fast as you can and something extra: Bring a mountain backpack rather than a trolly, the EC Village is not an asphalted area.

Use luggage tags

It will be easier to track your belongings wherever you might leave them in the EC Village area and surroundings.

Be patient

For security reasons, bags may be searched. Please cooperate and keep luggage unwrapped and accessible.

Bring a sturdy tent

If you’re camping, make your stay at EC Village comfortable and free of unpleasant surprises.

Reuse. Reduce. Recycle.

Nature is our dance floor. Let’s take care of it. Avoid single-use items and opt for reusables instead.

Still in doubt? Talk to us

Look for volunteers and info point whenever you have questions or need a little help.
