Wondering if anyone has ever been. I just won tickets in a contest, and wondering about logistics, what happens after midnight when the music stops. Any info would be helpful!

Sorry for the delayed reply, but I just saw this post.
Went to this fest a couple of years ago. If you like bluegrass, it will be a good time. I arrived at 10 am or so. No line or search. There is some reserved camping, but it is mostly a free for all with respect to your spot. Camping is all in tree covered areas, which is awesome. Festival grounds are relatively small and the security line to get into the music takes 30 seconds at most; you can easily pop back to your camp site in between sets. When I went they had a small acoustic stage in one of the camping areas that starts up at midnight and runs until 3 or 4. Overall, not the most wild festival to go to, but we had great neighbors and it's easy to get a close spot to the stage.
It's being video broadcasted on JamGrass.TV and on their YouTube Channel. Here's the stream schedule:
Thursday 05:30 - Them Coulee Boys 07:00 - Billy Strings 08:45 - Horeseshoes & Hand Grenades
Friday 11:30 - Lindsay Lou 01:00 - Mipso 02:30 - Mandolin Orange 04:00 - The Steeldrivers 05:30 - Del McCoury Band 07:00 - The Infamous Stringdusters 08:45 - Pert Near Sandstone 10:30 - Greensky Bluegrass
Saturday 11:30 - Danny Barnes Trio 01:00 - Charlie Parr 02:30 - Jeff Austin Band 04:00 - Tyler Childers 05:30 - Stone Canyon Rangers 08:45 - Pert Near Sandstone
Looks like there are some gaps that will be filled in along the way. But there's lots of blue grass and Americana stuff to watch for free this weekend.
Basically same location as Eaux Claires Festival. Main difference is Blue Ox has all the camping and music contained within the campground location so everything is within a 3 minute walk while EXC has their camping at the same location but the stages and other activities a couple miles away in a larger space.
I’ve always heard nice things about Blue Ox considering it’s an extremely small niche festival. If don’t need all the bells and whistles that most festivals have and just want to listen to a ton of bluegrass / americana, you’ll have a blast.
