"RCC" is simple; Roscoe's Chili Challenge!
Tickets are available at the main gate for entry, available the day of the event. The event costs $60 per person for the entire event, or $50 for Saturday only. No one under 21 years old is allowed in the event. Primitive on-RRC-grounds camping is included, no RVs (see below).
The RCC gates are open Thursday, Friday & Saturday 8:30 AM to 1:00 AM.
Motorcycle parking is included and welcome right on the event's grounds.
Sorry, no. In order to protect the motorcycles on the RCC grounds, cars & trucks are not allowed in. However, parking is available at one of the neighbors' locations. They will have signs as you enter the neighborhood; costs may vary.
You need to RIDE A BIKE in the gate to tent camp on the RCC grounds!!
ROADSIDE PARKING IS NOT ALLOWED FOR ANY VEHICLE.
Make sure to tune your radios to 89.1 FM while at your campsites to listen to RCC Radio LIVE! We'll be broadcasting music and announcments during the event.
YES!!!! The cost of admission includes tent camping on the Roscoe Chili Challenge grounds in designated areas (don't worry, there's plenty of camping areas), AS LONG AS YOU RIDE A MOTORCYCLE IN (cage drivers may arrange for camping with the neighbors where they parked thier car/truck/RV). There are limited showers, and plenty of port-a-pottys. As long as there is no Burn Ban in Polk County, RCC allows controlled fires at your campsite.
Camping off the Roscoe's Chili Challenge grounds may be arranged with the neighbors (click HERE) but is not included in the RCC admission price.
No, but fret not! Camper & RV parking for the event is provided by Roscoe's neighbors as close as next door! They will have signs posted as you enter the neighborhood, but it is HIGHLY recommended to make advance arrangements with them. No hookups are available unless specified by the neighbor. Contact info for them is available HERE. Transportation from these areas is provided. However, transporters work for tips only. Please don't forget to give them something to get a drink with later!
