On a 420 acre Bison Farm not far from the iconic sights and adventures of Hatcher Pass, a rather phenomenal event takes place in July. The nomadic trend of tiny homes on wheels gravitates to The Mat-Su for a packed weekend of workshops, concerts and unforgettable Alaska excursions.

Vanstock’s daily schedule is loaded! No matter what may have first inspired your escape to vanlife, you’ll find the perfect way to fuel your enthusiasm at this event. Learn crafts like book making or block printing, check out the DIY builds of fellow van lifers, cut loose at a series of concert performances by local musicians, or sign up for the unbelievable river rafting adventure provided by NOVA Alaska Guides.

With visible self-confidence, the vanlife movement embodies what The Mat-Su is all about. Here, it’s all about enjoying local culture, connecting to the land, and experiencing Alaska on your terms. If you drive a van, stylized to help you feel right at home wherever you travel, the only thing left for you to do is travel to The Mat-Su and attend Vanstock. Your chill vibes are needed!
