WHERE TO STAY:
- TENT CITY - Camp out with over half the people attending Sonshine on the 50 acres of green grass surrounding the Willmar Civic Center! Plan to use the MAIN ENTRANCE when you arrive for parking & camping. Parking is real close to the camping area and you can bring a grill or stove to enjoy cooking in the great outdoors. No campfires, torches or
fireworks are permitted and since it’s a temporary campground there is no electricity, trees, or picnic tables bring what
you need. If you’ve got a camping rig on wheels, blacktop parking is available.
All stages are within a four (4) minute walk of RV & Tent City. - Click HERE to download the Motel & Campgrounds list.
