CamperFest

Meet the performers at this year's Camperfest

Yes folks, We are so excited to highlight the live music at your Camperfest Hub, The White Horse at this year’s event.

DAVE MANNING

THURSDAY EVENING

Dave Manning is a troubadour like no other, blending music, storytelling, and a life lived on the road. Known for his captivating performances across bars, casinos, and festivals in the American West and Europe, Dave embodies authenticity and artistry. His musical journey has taken him to incredible places, from performing at Folsom Prison to being featured as “that musician” in the acclaimed VW documentary The BUS.

Dave travels alongside his iconic ’65 VW bus, “Vincent,” a faithful companion of 25 years and 400,000 miles. This journey has even earned him invites from Volkswagen to their factory in Germany for red-carpet events. Living by a philosophy of slowing down and connecting deeply, Dave’s music reflects the joy, wonder, and raw honesty of life on earth.

This year, Dave is thrilled to be back at Camperfest, where his stories, melodies, and the unmistakable charm of Vincent will once again light up the stage. Don’t miss this chance to witness the magic of an artist who truly lives his music.
