Question 1

What is the history of Lezapalooza?

Accepted Answer

Our Grand Poobah, Liz, was sitting on her porch at Fort Chubbs with friends early November 2020. She began daydreaming while looking over her (at the time) 5 acre property.  She said, “Wouldn't it be so awesome to just fill this yard with a shit load of lesbians camping in tents for a weekend?” Naturally, everyone agreed that it would probably be the best thing ever. A couple months later, some time in February,  Liz reached out to her friends Carina, Jess and Melissa to see if they would be interested in taking on the feat of planning a WLW festival in the short amount of time we had before the next winter began. That was that! Lezapalooza was born and our first retreat was held in September of 2021. It was a complete success. Liz, Carina, Jess and Melissa, with the help of so many volunteers from the community, pulled it off and intend to do it over and over because we need this for ourselves just as much as our community needs it. A space to call our own where we can forget about the real world and be free for a long weekend of love and community.

Question 2

When is the Weekend? What are the hours?

Accepted Answer

The Lezapalooza Camping Weekend will be Friday, September 25th through Sunday, September 27th, 2026. Gates open at 1 pm on Friday and we would like campers to be there no later than 5pm. All Campers must be off the property by 3pm September 27th.

For VIC pass holders, Lezapalooza can begin one day earlier on Thursday, September 24th at 3pm.  Campers must arrive before 7pm as that's when registration will close,

Volunteers will be invited to arrive a day early (no cost) on Thursday at 2pm as a thank you for helping us at camp.  We do ask that you give us 1-2 additional hours of help if you come on Thursday.

Question 3

Where is Lezapalooza?

Accepted Answer

Lezapalooza is in North New Jersey.  We will not share the address of camp outside of that until much closer to the event for your and our safety. When you do learn of this retreats address, please do not share with others who are not coming to camp. Keep it vague when others ask. Please do not tag this retreats address in your Instagram or Facebook Post.

Question 4

Who attends the Weekend? Who is this for?

Accepted Answer

The Weekend draws an incredibly diverse crowd in terms of age, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, and identity. This is a sapphic space curated for Lesbian women, however anyone who is a WLW in any capacity, including our non-binary family who find a sense of comfort and community in women centered spaces are welcome. Trans women of a sapphic nature are welcome. This is not a retreat for men. Note that anytime Lezapalooza utilizes the word "women '' we are referencing trans and cis women. Any time we utilize the word "men" we are referencing trans and cis men. With regard to these guidelines, we trust that all those interested in coming have the ability to evaluate their own potential presence at this retreat.

Question 5

Is Lezapalooza trans friendly?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely.  Transwomen are women and all nonbinary humans who are comfortable attending a women centered camp are MORE than welcome. We have testimonials highlighted on our Instagram.  If you flip through there, you will see testimonials specifically from our trans campers who had a good time at camp. Any and all transphobic people should not attend as this is an intentional safe space for women (transwomen included always) and nonbinary campers.

Question 6

When do tickets go up for sale?

Accepted Answer

Tickets for 2026 will be on sale Friday, May 1st at 5pm.

Question 7

How much will Lezapalooza tickets cost?

Accepted Answer

Lezapalooza is an unique and life-affirming experience and we want as many campers as possible to experience our retreat weekend!  This year's prices reflect the reality of the economy, while also balancing the needs of budget-conscious campers.

Our 2026 Early Bird pricing will, in many cases, cost LESS than 2025 pricing.  There are additional discounts available, listed below.

Even still, we recognize that this expense may not be in the budget for many in our community.  We encourage campers to request assistance by applying for a scholarship here.

If you are able to help another camper attend, you have the opportunity to contribute funds that will be earmarked for scholarships here.

A VIC (Very Important Camper) pass will cost $75.  You can add on a VIC pass to your admission pass to allow entry one day early, Thursday, September 24th.  A VIC pass cannot be purchased alone.  Our weekend volunqueers are our most important campers (since we can't run camp without them!) so, along with our volunteer leadership, all volunteers are VICs and get an extra night of camping on Thursday, September 24th free.  This includes the VIC meal on Thursday evening and the VIC activity.

In addition to Early Bird and discounted tickets (day passes, discount tent, discount car/rv) we also have the following ways to save:

Scholarships
BIPOC discount code: BIPOC26
Refer a sponsor (submit form on our website Partner/Media page)
Become a weekend Volunqueer to earn a refund (amounts vary per type of vol)
Become an event lead or staff member to earn a refund or discount (amounts vary per role)

Question 8

Can I get an idea as to why tickets cost what they do?

Accepted Answer

You sure can. Not to toot our own horn but Lezapalooza is not your average camping retreat. This isn't just popping a tent and gathering around a campfire (which by the way is also a blast).  This is several steps up from tent camping in the woods. Lezapalooza is fully interactive and immersive. We think of it as Lesbian Disney W0rld where you can actually choose your own adventure. You can get a weekend of grounding, calming, nature vibes or you can get exciting, outrageous, party vibes.  You can also experience both.  Providing this variety of activities, workshops, dance parties, drag shows, meditation, arts and crafts, archery and sports events comes with a very hefty price tag.  We have the best gogo dancers, drag performers and djs in the tri-state area. Tickets could absolutely cost less, but then Lezapalooza would be offering less. For 2026 we project covering over $25,000 in entry fees to volunteer staff and managers, specialty providers, entertainment folks and don’t forget scholarships!  Additionally, $5000 in donations or stipends will be gifted to participants.

Outside of high operational costs of just the weekend of the retreat, we have several recurring business costs throughout the year.

That's the long and short of it, campers.  Lezapalooza is run by three women who spend hundreds of hours (each) a year planning this event because they know how much we need this magical space.  We love community and believe that having fun, whether it be wild and crazy fun or warm, comfortable, calming fun, can be life altering and even lifesaving.  At Lezapalooza, we have an incredible and dedicated group of organizers and volunteer management team, and they are working year-round to put together a once a year, four day, wlw centered event where you can have the absolute best time of your life if you choose to do so. As if that isn’t enough, you can, and many people have, made friends or lovers here and they remain part of one another’s life indefinitely. Check our story highlights on our Instagram to read some honest camper feedback about the pure, affirming, lesbian joy others have experienced at camp.

What is a VIC PASS? Here are ALL the details. Please read!

Accepted Answer

A very important camper pass is an add on to your general admission ticket. This pass allows you to come to camp for an additional day, Thursday. VIC campers MUST be able to arrive to camp between 3pm and 7pm on Thursday. If you cannot arrive before 7pm, please do not purchase this pass. Be aware, we may still be setting up when you arrive!

Question 11

Volunqueering - All info on volunqueering HERE

Accepted Answer

Overview & Benefits

Volunqueers are essential community members who provide short-term support for specific departments during the retreat. Unlike staff or managers, Volunqueers are not required to work pre-event or attend weekly planning meetings.
The only exception to this is that we do encourage our volunteers to come to our August meeting at the campground. This is not mandatory but highly encouraged especially for those who have never been to camp and/or never volunteered before.

Applications:
Open 4.6.26
Please choose the application that corresponds with your first choice. While we do our best to accommodate, we do not guarantee you'll get your first choice. There will be an option to select your 2nd and 3rd choices.
We will start confirming your volunteer status in early May (please be patient). Our Volunqueer Manager will send an email with your confirmed department and volunteer information. ALL Volunqueers must confirm back in email, sign a contract and purchase a ticket to be officially put on the Volunqueer schedule. 
Official Volunqueer schedules will not come out until early September. 
As roles/departments fill up we will leave those applications open, but they will become our backup list (this will be noted in the title/application). Our Volunqueer manager will still reach out to let you know that you are on our backup list for that role/department. If an opening becomes available before 9/15, we will reach out to verify your interest and commitment. Please respond within 72 hours or we will move to the next candidate.

Standard Benefits
VIC Pass ($75 value): Includes one additional night of camping (Thursday). Note: This benefit is for the Volunqueer only and does not extend to camping companions.
Ticket Refund: A tiered refund based on the position and hours completed (see below).
Total Estimated Value: $125 – $175.
All volunqueer discounts are issued as a refund provided AFTER the retreat. Please purchase your ticket when you are ready. No discount code will be provided.

VIC PASS

All Volunqueers get a free VIC Pass. This year there is a Staff & Volunqueer VIC Pass that is free and used for registration purposes only. PLEASE DO NOT get this pass unless you have been confirmed as volunqueer and signed the volunqueer contract/waiver. You may purchase your regular weekend ticket/s and come back to get the free Staff & Volunqueer VIC Pass once confirmed.

Refund Policy
Refunds are processed to the original credit card within 14 business days of the last day of the festival.
Refunds are prorated. If the full hours are not completed, the refund will reflect only the hours actually worked.

Volunteer Tiers & Compensation
 
Shifts:
Shifts will vary by role and department. While we can estimate when shifts will be needed, we are still in the planning process. Therefore, we cannot guarantee the shift times. This will be confirmed closer to the retreat. Some roles will have Thursday night shifts. This will be verified on the application. You'll be able to confirm if you are available for a Thursday night shift.

All volunqueers get a free VIC pass regardless of shift so we highly encourage you to come to camp Thursday! Volunqueers registration is typically 12 p.m. and 3 p.m (expectations for some roles).

Do I need to be vaccinated?

Accepted Answer

No

We've lifted our requirement to provide documentation of vaccination status at registration.  However, we still strongly suggest that you are up to date on all vaccinations and/or boosters before coming to camp.  Also, our policy that you should not come to camp sick is still fully intact.  We recommend that you be incredibly careful for the seven days prior to camp so you don't get sick and can come and enjoy the weekend.  Do not come to camp sick! It is recommended that you stay isolated for 5 days after all symptoms have subsided.

Question 16

Can I transfer my tickets?

Tent tickets, Single Cabin Bunk tickets, and RV/Car tickets are not transferable. You must ask for a refund if it is available.

Question 20

Discount codes?

Accepted Answer

Please note, discount codes cannot be stacked. Only one code can be used per purchase. If you are purchasing tickets for multiple campers and each has their own discount code, please buy the tickets one at a time to apply the necessary discount. If you cannot do this or are purchasing a platform or private cabin (and need to use multiple discounts) please email lezapalooza@gmail.com to get a unique code. Be sure to email Lezapalooza the name of the camper and why they got a discount code.

Example 1: You need to purchase a tent ticket for yourself and another camper. Each of you are volunteers and received a discount code. Purchase each ticket separately.
Example 2: You are purchasing a tent ticket, but you are doing multiple things at camp (like volunteering and being an event leader) email Lezapalooza to get a unique code IF YOU HAVE NOT ALREADY RECEIVED ONE
Example 3: You are purchasing a private cabin and more than one camper in the cabin has a discount code. Email Lezapalooza for a unique discount code.

Question 21

Are trans women loving women welcome?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely 100% yes.

Question 22

I'm Bisexual, pansexual, asexual etc. Can I come to this retreat?

Accepted Answer

Heck ya! Thats what we mean when we say all WLW.

Question 23

BUMBLE BEEs!?!?!?

Accepted Answer

Yes.  They are at camp.  Our first year we had no issue and our second year we had several bee stings.  Note that the weather will determine how active the bees are at camp.  If you are allergic, please bring an epi pen and notify our nursing staff.

Question 24

What type of terrain can I expect? What accessibility accommodations/programs are available?

Accepted Answer

This site is hilly (sometimes steep), rocky and very muddy if it rains. There are steps to get into some buildings. Some buildings have a ramp. Some buildings are 5+ minutes away from others on foot.  Campers have expressed that it can be strenuous to get around.

Our Red cabin has bottom bunks reserved in it for people with limited mobility OR people who need to be in the accessible cabin for some other reason. These are limited. We wish we did not have to limit the accessibility bunk tickets but we did not build this campsite and are working with what we have. We chose that cabin because it has a shower and bathroom in it as well as a ramp to the door. When purchasing a bunk in our accessible cabin, you will have the option of top or bottom bunk.  If you are able to climb into a top bunk, then please purchase a top bunk and leave bottom bunks for those who cannot climb to get into a bunk. bunk bunk bunk {AND insert top and bottom joke here}.

For 2026 we have an expanded Mobility Cart shuttle and ASL Interpreter program.

Our mobility cart is a dedicated golf cart that provides campers transportation around camp on a pre-determined route.  The stops and timing will be published on the official camp map.  While this program is a huge upgrade to the traditional ways we get around camp, you should feel comfortable getting around camp regardless of our shuttle.

We have 4xed our ASL Interpreter team for 2026 to provide even more coverage at large and small events.  ASL Interpreter staffed events will be indicated on the 2026 retreat schedule.

Additionally, we provide Regulation Station, a dedicated sensory tent that's mostly enclosed with soft textures, dim lighting, puzzles and fidgets to facilitate a calm space away from the crowd.

Most significantly, we have Community Support staff on call all weekend.  Our Community Support staff can be on-site quickly in the event of an emergency to provide trauma-informed support to individuals or groups and guide leadership on how best to prepare and respond to unexpected events.

If this camp is not accessible to you, please follow @Lezlite on Instagram for smaller, more accessibly events with the same lovely vibes as you get at camp.

If you have questions about the terrain or would like to see some pictures to evaluate (beyond what's posted on our website and IG), please reach out to us at Lezapalooza@gmail.com.

Question 25

Can I arrive after registration closes?

Accepted Answer

It is extremely important that all campers make every effort to arrive at camp by 6pm on Thursday and by 5pm on Friday.  It is an inconvenience to our organizers and volunteers to have to register campers after registration has closed.

That being said, we understand things can happen. Our hard deadlines are 7pm on Thursday and 9pm Friday.  Any campers arriving after 6pm Thursday or 5pm Friday need to communicate that with our registration team at Carinalezapalooza@gmail.com.  Any campers who cannot arrive before 7pm Thursday or 9pm Friday will need to also communicate that with registration at Carinalezapalooza@gmail.com and you will need to wait until the next morning to arrive at camp.

Yes. You must use your grill responsibly. Any unattended grills will be shut off. We must prevent forest fires.

Question 30

Can I bring alcohol?

Accepted Answer

If you can drink responsibly then yes. NO GLASS BOTTLES.

Question 31

Details on cabins?

Accepted Answer

Please look at the "Cabins" section of our website. Some videos of cabins are on our Instagram also.  All cabins have electric. Each cabin has different amenities. We cannot guarantee fridges or coffee pots that were there in years past, will be there every year. Have a backup plan if you need a fridge.  We also cannot guarantee a "clean" cabin.   These are rustic. Bugs and mice get in them and dust collects. There is no way we can fit time in to get to camp early enough to do a deep clean of cabins. The people who run this camp are not the same people who own this camp, so we don't have access until the day before the retreat starts. We CAN guarantee 4 walls and a roof!

Question 32

Do y’all sell alcohol though?

Accepted Answer

In an attempt to keep our sober campers comfy, we do not serve alcohol.

Question 33

Can I leave camp to grab food or a toothbrush or for any other reason?

No. For all our campers' safety, campers cannot come and go.  We keep tight tabs on who is and isn't at camp. If you leave camp, you are voiding your ticket and you cannot reenter. If you have an emergency that requires you to leave camp, please notify staff.

Accepted Answer

No animals can be brought to camp.

Question 35

How old do I have to be to come to camp?

Question 36

How are the bunks in the cabins?

Accepted Answer

These bunks are constructed in various ways. They are 30" by 6 foot long. Some are on springs, and some are on plywood. All have a foam pad.  We recommend bringing something to make your bed softer as foam pads are old. A sleeping pad, a comforter or some memory foam... anything! All bunks are first come first serve in cabins. Some are double decker. We recommend our more agile campers take the top bunks so that those who are less able, can take the lower bunk.

Question 37

Can I camp in my car?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You must still purchase a ticket and we have an area for car/rv camping.

Question 38

Can I bring my kids?

Accepted Answer

Follow our @poozajr Instagram page for info! Make sure to check "requests" folder in your DMs after requesting to follow. In order to provide a safe-for-kids Instagram page, we must have an answer to this question before we can accept your request.

Question 39

I'm coming alone and nervous!

Accepted Answer

We have only heard good things from our solo campers.  We obviously cannot guarantee you will have a good time, but we design camp in a way that you certainly should!

We have SEVERAL testimonials from our solo campers, and you can view those on our Instagram in highlights.

Question 41

Will there be ice?

Accepted Answer

This is TBD

Question 42

Can I swim in the lake? Kayak?!

Accepted Answer

You bet your hindquarters you can! Lots of good times are had at the lake. No one is permitted to swim alone.  At least one other person needs to be swimming with you or at the shore watching you.

Question 43

Lezapalooza trigger warnings

Accepted Answer

We can never predict everything that will happen at camp.  We would love to give our campers a heads up on absolutely everything they could encounter or experience while here but it's just not possible. This does not mean we don't care, and this does not mean we are not thinking about this as we plan this retreat. All our volunteer staff are trauma trained (a meeting ran by our community support manager who is a professional with extensive knowledge on this topic) which in short means... we take a deep dive into ways we can make campers, all campers, feel more comfortable.  We encourage you to read thoroughly through this website and through the emails we send out to ticket holders as it will best prepare you for what to expect. As well as a lot of the same triggers you may experience in the real world, these are the things we can say you could encounter:
Nudity - All different bodies - all different body parts
Smoking 
Alcohol - We do not serve alcohol. We have an All Fellowship-AA meeting at camp on Saturday
Drug use - zero tolerance policy on all man-made drugs
Public Displays of Affection
Loud Music
Loud People
Accidental Misgendering
Cold/Hot/Wet/Stormy Weather 
Crowds
Darkness
Bright Lights
Flashing lights
Unexpected changes in schedule
Spoken to by strangers
Lack of complete silence to fall asleep
Use of curse words 
Sudden sounds
Odd Smells
Dirty rooms
Highly emotional people
Re-Entry to the real world

There are things you can do that will help you cope with most of these things like, ear plugs, sunglasses, avoiding certain events, nametag or pin with preferred pronouns, picking certain sleeping arrangements, and of course like we mentioned above, carefully reading through this FAQ, website and any and all emails we send to you.  Any questions at all about this topic can be sent to Lezapalooza@gmail.com.

Question 44

Is there somewhere I can shower?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The red cabin has one shower available for only red cabin campers.  The rest of the camp has two bath houses with 5 showers in each.  Showers are limited to 5 minutes. You should be expecting very rustic shower situations.

Question 45

Are there toilets?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we have flushing toilets and outhouses. Outhouses are not super pleasant, however, they work! As far as the bathrooms go, you should be expecting rustic bathrooms BUT they are cleaned regularly throughout your stay, have running water and sinks! Welcome to camping!

Question 46

Someone is going that I don't like… can you ask them not to?

Accepted Answer

We all know the answer to this, don't we.  Lezapalooza can not bar your ex from coming.  I would suggest reaching out to them and making sure you are not buying tickets in the same cabin. This place is 200 acres, let's all get along!

Question 47

I am not happy with someone in my cabin, what are my options?

Accepted Answer

None. No options. Staff at Lezapalooza can not get involved with cabin squabbles. We are just simply too busy!  Talk it out respectfully.  If you feel ACTUALLY unsafe let us know.

Question 48

Can I bring a camper/RV?

Question 50

Can I bring drugs?

Marijuana is legal recreationally in New Jersey - do what you will with that information.

No smoking in any buildings.

Question 56

What can I expect next year?

Accepted Answer

It's true: 2026 is our last year at our current location at the scale of production we've built.  BUT, that doesn't mean Lezapalooza is going away.  In fact, by returning to our original intentions we are doubling down on camping with community.  Lezapalooza 2027 will still be the last weekend of September and still be located within the NY/NJ/Eastern PA region.  There are a few unknowns at this point, but we will update our socials and the website as soon as details become clear.  What we can tell you currently:We will have about 150-200 tickets available.We will most likely be supporting state parks with our location choices.We will provide the Camper Led Activities and Meetups spreadsheet to allow campers to organize any events they want to host at camp.We will provide a smooth registration process and ticket purchasing through our website.We will provide the pre-camp chat with weekend-of announcements.We will host arrival night s'mores and weekend kickoff fireside meetup.We will have a small team of volunteers that will allow us to provide firewood, maintain fires and collect trash.We are excited for this transition away from the big production and back to camping, in nature, with our community - because as long as you all are there, it's guaranteed to be an amazing experience!  With this knowledge, we are looking forward to intentionally enjoying every second of Lezapalooza 2026, knowing how special this event is this year.
