PLAN

The Town of Telluride and Telluride Mountain Village are small communities with limited parking accommodations. The Telluride Autumn Classic team has worked diligently to make sure all vehicles are accommodated. Information about additional parking for participating car owners bringing trailers or car haulers will be provided in the confirmation packet once tickets are purchased.

Please note that most lodging options will not be able to accommodate any trailer parking.

Offsite RV Parking:
Special Offsite Festival RV Parking. The Festival will have a limited number of RV parking spaces available at an additional $100 per RV fee. The $100 fee will cover parking from Thursday, September 22nd at 12p through Monday, September 26th at 9a. This is a flat $100 fee and will apply if you are staying all 4 nights, just the weekend or only one night.

These sites are primitive (NO SERVICES: NO Dumping, NO Electric, NO Water, NO Trash Receptacles) so RV’s must be self contained for your length of stay. This is a ‘Leave No Trace’ space. Space is limited and spots must be reserved prior to 9/11/2022. If you have a car/motorcycle trailer that needs to be accommodated, your trailer may also be parked in this lot.

Other RV options:

• RV parking is extremely limited in the Town Park campground and typically sold out for the year by early spring. Absolutely NO CAMPING in cars or RVs is allowed within the Town of Telluride city limits, this includes any parking lots or in the Lawson Hill Ball Field areas.
• For information regarding other RV options in the area, please visit: https://www.telluride-co.gov/
