Meetup Minutiae

Be a part of something!
Nomad Nexus Meetup

Because it’s not just an event…it’s a vibe, a family,
and a freakin’ good time.

Upcoming Meetups

Feb 5-18, 2026

Mardi Gras

The Mardi Gras Meetup will be held in Slidell, LA. Just across Lake Ponchartrain is the infamous New Orleans! This is my hometown area and I am so excited to share it with you!

Basics on Meetups

A Home for the Houseless, a Family for the Free

Where solo travelers are encouraged, weirdos are celebrated, volunteers get sweet perks, & families are welcome!

Grab your gear (or let’s be real, drive your house) and roll up to Nomad Nexus, a gathering for folks who traded white fences for black tires and cubicles for campfires.

This isn’t your grandma’s RV rally. It’s part community campout, part rolling circus, and all about connection & creativity, good vibes & a good time.

🚐 Who’s This For?

If you’re…

  • Living life one mile marker at a time 🚌
  • Chasing sunsets instead of paychecks 🌅
  • Converting rigs, building dreams, or just freaking curious 🔧
  • Tired of explaining your “composting” toilet to strangers 🚽
  • Looking for community, looking to build a family on shared values, not shared DNA

…then you’re our kinda people.

Know all you need to?

ready to snag tickets?

There are lots of deets on this page but if you’re ready…

🅿️ The “Park It Pass”

Pick your spot, park, and stay a while. Your rig is your ticket to the party (I mean, you need an actual ticket too, but you get the idea). Whether you’re in a skoolie, van, fifth wheel, or something you welded together in your cousin’s driveway 🔧✨ we’ve got room for you.

The pass includes:

  • ✅ Camping for the dates you pick
  • ✅ Access to all the Nexus activities
  • ✅ Activities, workshops, and after-dark shenanigans
  • ✅ A chance to make new friends and finally meet friends you follow in person

🐾 Pet-Friendly, Kid-Welcome, Drama-Free

Bring your dog. Bring your kid. Bring your weird uncle if he’s cool. But be sure to clean up after all of them if they don’t clean up after themselves.

This is a judgment-free zone, but not a free-for-all.

Our only hard rule:
👉 Don’t be an assh🟤le! Be the neighbor you want and the friend you need.

📡 What About… Wi-Fi? Showers? Hookups?

Great questions. We have a whole FAQs page for that. But short version:

  • It’s no KOA, it’s for boondockers, but each venue varies. Some have all the bells & whistles, and some have nothing but ground to park on. So check out the details for each event for the specifics.
  • Quiet hours are a thing, but so are late-night drum circles. Just be mindful of where you are parked and feel free to move if you find yourself parked in the wrong neighborhood.
  • Generators are ok, but please park in the designated area.
  • Wi-Fi? Nope. I will try to note cell service for each venue, but let’s try & unplug as much as we can! The point, after all, is to make real, in-person connections.

📅 When & Where

February 5-18, 2026
📍 Slidell, LA (exact address emailed after registration)

Come for a few days or the whole shebang. You do you. Just get here.

🎟️ Tickets & Registration

DEALS & DISCOUNTS

Groundbreaker Special
For each event, the first 30 to register for the whole shabang get a special deal! You can save up to 20% or more, just book and enter promo code GROUNDBREAKER at checkout. This code is only good if you book for the whole event. Being a Groundbreaker will also earn you future exclusives!

🤝 Hype Krewe (Get Paid to Bring Your Friends!)
Once you’re registered, you’ll get a special referral code, share it with your nomadic crew, and both of you win! Your friend gets $20 off their ticket, and you get $20 cash back every time someone uses your code. I mean, who doesn’t love free money? You could totally earn back your whole stay!

👩🏻‍🤝‍👨🏽Volunteer Bonus
Volunteering is my favorite way to get to know people at events. Volunteers also get rewarded! Sometimes it’s a discount, sometimes it’s extra days for free. Depends on the venue and days we are allowed to be there. Check the volunteer box when you register, and you will be contacted about how you can help out.

🤝 My Promise about discounts
Other than a few affiliate links floating around out there for 5-10% off, the deals & discounts listed here are the only ones that will be offered. There will be no future flash sales. There is nothing worse than grabbing a ticket to something and then finding out it went on sale the next day. I’m not doing that to anyone!
