I am trying to find out if anyone knows of any camping options close to Riverbend in Cincy for the August 6th show? It's been a few years since I've been there. Is the tailgating still good at this venue?

Yes, the tailgating is still a huge party. I'm not sure about any official campsites but a lot of people camp out across from Riverbend and Coney Island. There are a lot of empty/abandoned parking lots along Kelloggs Ave that people usually camp at but I don't know if they are first come/first serve or if you can reserve them in advance.

Across the street I am pretty sure you cannot camp there. I do believe that there used a person that used to allow campers but was busted a few years back.

you are correct

Thanks for the info. The Riverbend website is pretty crappy on giving out important info.

there are no campgrounds in the immediate area to my knowledge

last year we parked the rv in a nearby hotel parking lot the night before the show

I haven't been there in years, but when we did go I believe we camped at a small place about 30 minutes north. The place was terrible though and with Ohio being a somewhat dry state after certain times of the day, I would suggest looking for a spot just on the other side of the border. You'll be a bit further away, but at least you can get the booze you'll need and it wouldn't be a hell of a lot longer to drive.

Unfortunately, we have since moved across the world and I can not seem to remember the name or details of where we camped...sorry and good luck.
