Cornhole – Perfect for Music Festivals

The laid-back atmosphere of a music festival is made for a game of cornhole. Here’s why the boards belong in your festival gear.

Everyone knows that cornhole is the quintessential tailgate and backyard barbecue party game, but you can spice up any event – including music festivals. The laid back atmosphere of a music festival is perfect for a little game of cornhole. Just lay out your custom cornhole boards, get some people together, and play while you jam out.

More Casual than a Concert

Music festivals are made up of a bunch of different stages separated by wide open spaces. Mosh pits will form, but there’s lots of free space around the edges to set up your game. If there is one band you really wanted to see, you can play cornhole while you’re waiting for them to take the stage. Let the sounds of the bands playing be the soundtrack for your game.

Bringing Music Fans Together

All types of music fans attend music festivals – that’s what makes them so awesome. Festivals are a great way to find other people who like your favorite music. A game of cornhole is a great way to make new friends who share your interests – and even new friends who don’t!

You Don’t Have to Put Down Your Drink

There will be plenty of delicious foods and beverages to entertain your stomach while you listen to the bands. Cornhole is a game that only requires one hand to play, so you can still drink your beer or hold on to your burger while you toss the cornhole bags.

Playing After the Headliner

Most festival games happen back at the campsite once the last set ends. A set of cornhole lights lets you keep playing well after dark, and a custom-designed set of boards is an easy way to help your friends find your camp in a sea of tents. If you’d rather not haul boards to the festival grounds, renting a set for the weekend is another option.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are cornhole boards allowed at music festivals?

It depends on the festival. Camping festivals usually welcome lawn games in the campground areas, while the main stage grounds are often more restricted. Check the festival’s prohibited-items list before you pack the boards.

How much space do you need to set up cornhole?

Regulation play puts the front edges of the boards 27 feet apart, so plan on a lane roughly 40 feet long and 10 feet wide to give players room to throw. Casual games can shorten that distance for tight campsites.
