The Denton Farm Park is a wonderful venue, easily one of the best I've been to anywhere. The 100 acre grounds are clean and safe and the stage area is covered with fixed seating in a stadium pattern, so there are no bad seats. There is room on the outside of the covered area for lawn chairs and also for golf carts in the back. The food is also quite good for what it is and there are a number of vendors selling instruments and other items. The camping facilities are excellent, with clearly defined spaces with over 500 camping hookups and 5 bathhouses with 30 showers. Day visitors will find parking plentiful with a little bit of a walk to the stage area, depending on when you arrive in the day.
Denton hasn't quite cultivated the same reputation for jamming that Bass Mtn. had, but last year, there were lots of opportunities to jam and I went from circle to circle and found that folks were very receptive to my joining in without fail. It is my understanding that the jamming improves each year, so if this is your primary reason for going to a festival, I don't think you'll be disappointed.
Tickets are also reasonable considering the quality of the park and the lineup. All prices are the "Gate" price, since we are past the deadline (April 24th) for purchasing advanced tickets.
