Vanfest has a long history at the Springwater Convservation Area campground and the staff which has been a great partnership, and we want to keep it that way for everyone.

We know Vanfest brings vanners and truck owners together to show off their rides and have a party. The Vanfest team wants everyone to have a great time while taking care of the grounds and respecting each other.

Please know there are Conservation Area rules we need to abide by as a Provincially operated park.
