RV Rental for Hot Springs Music Festival in Alexander, AR
The Hot Springs Music Festival fills downtown Hot Springs, Arkansas with chamber and orchestral concerts across the early days of June, and lodging inside the historic district books up fast. An RV rental for the Hot Springs Music Festival from Fireside RV Rental in Alexander, AR gives you a place to stay near the venues without fighting for a Central Avenue hotel room. We’re based just off Interstate 30 in Saline County, roughly a 35-to-45-minute drive northeast of Hot Springs along U.S. Highway 70, which makes us well-positioned to set you up for the festival run.
Where to Camp for the Hot Springs Music Festival
Because the festival’s performances are spread across Hot Springs venues rather than one fairground, your best bet is a campground within a short drive of the historic district. Gulpha Gorge Campground inside Hot Springs National Park sits closest to downtown — its sites offer full hookups and you can reach the Central Avenue venues in well under fifteen minutes. Lake Catherine State Park, southeast of the city off Arkansas Highway 171, is another option with shaded lakeside sites if you’d rather wake up on the water. For something with resort amenities, DeGray Lake Resort State Park lies to the southwest near Bismarck. Closer to our base, Maumelle Park (a Corps of Engineers campground on the Arkansas River) and Pinnacle Mountain State Park give you a quieter stay with easy I-430 and U.S. 70 access back toward Hot Springs.
Can you deliver the RV to a campground near the venues?
Yes. We deliver and set up your motorhome or travel trailer at most campgrounds in the Hot Springs and Central Arkansas area, including Gulpha Gorge, Lake Catherine State Park, and DeGray Lake Resort State Park, so you don’t have to tow anything or learn to back into a site during festival week. You reserve the campsite, we handle getting the RV there, leveling it, and connecting it. See our RV delivery page for how it works, or reach out at 501-681-6043 to confirm we serve your chosen park.
RV Options for the Festival
Whether you’re a couple coming in for a few evening concerts or a group splitting a larger rig, we have units that suit different festival plans. Travel trailers work well when you’ve already reserved a site at a place like Lake Catherine and want a comfortable base for the week. Motorhomes give you a self-contained setup that’s easy to settle into for the early-June stretch of performances. Specific equipment, packages, and amenities vary by location and by unit, so contact our Alexander location for the full list of what each RV includes and current pricing before you book.
When should I book?
Early June is the front edge of Arkansas’s busy camping season, and the festival draws visitors who book campsites and RVs well ahead. State park sites at Lake Catherine and DeGray and the national park sites at Gulpha Gorge are popular this time of year, so reserve your campground spot as soon as your festival dates are set, then call us to lock in a unit. Booking several weeks out is smart; the closer you get to opening night, the tighter both campsite and RV availability become.
What’s the weather like in Hot Springs in June?
June in Garland County runs warm and humid, with daytime highs commonly in the upper 80s to low 90s and warm, muggy evenings. Afternoon thunderstorms are typical for Central Arkansas this month, so air conditioning and a place to duck out of the heat between concerts matters. The Ouachita lakes around Hot Springs stay swimmable, which is part of why pairing an evening of music with a daytime stay at Lake Catherine or DeGray works so well in June.
Getting to Hot Springs from Our Alexander Base
Fireside RV Rental sits in Alexander, AR near the Saline and Pulaski county line, with quick access to Interstate 30. From here, the standard route to the festival is U.S. Highway 70 west through Benton and on into Hot Springs. If you’re flying in, Bill and Hillary Clinton National Airport (LIT) in Little Rock is the main gateway, while Memorial Field Airport (HOT) is the small option right in Hot Springs.

Do you serve more than just Hot Springs?
We do. From our Alexander location we deliver across Central Arkansas — including Benton, Bryant, Little Rock, North Little Rock, Maumelle, and Sheridan — so if you’re combining the festival with a stay near the Arkansas River Trail, Pinnacle Mountain State Park, or other area attractions, we can position your RV accordingly.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is there RV camping right at the Hot Springs Music Festival venues?
The festival uses multiple Hot Springs venues in and around the historic district rather than a single site with parking, so there isn’t dedicated on-site RV camping. Most attendees stay at nearby campgrounds — Gulpha Gorge Campground in Hot Springs National Park is the closest with full hookups, followed by Lake Catherine State Park and DeGray Lake Resort State Park — and drive in for performances.
What does the RV come with?
Inclusions, kitchen and bedding setups, and add-on packages vary by unit and by location. Rather than assume, contact our Alexander, AR location directly for the full equipment list and current pricing on the RV you’re considering for the festival.
Can you deliver to a campground I’ve already booked near Hot Springs?
In most cases, yes. We deliver to campgrounds throughout the Hot Springs and Central Arkansas area, including the state parks and Corps of Engineers parks on the area lakes. Tell us where you’ve reserved and we’ll confirm we can deliver and set up there.
How early should I reserve for the June festival?
Book as soon as your festival dates and campsite are confirmed. Early June is peak camping season around the Ouachita lakes, so both campground sites and RV rentals tighten up the closer you get to the event. Several weeks of lead time gives you the best selection.
