I Love Elephants

I Love Elephants Camp is a gathering space celebrating art, animals, and connection. Our open Living Commons invites participants to explore interactive installations devoted to the creatures people love, from elephants to wolves, bees, ravens, and more. At the heart of the camp is the Gaia Dome, inspired by the spirit of Ram Dass, featuring visionary art, conversations, tea gatherings, and immersive projection experiences. Throughout the week visitors can join workshops, paint wooden elephant keepsakes, cool off in our misting oasis, and gather for music, storytelling, and art under the desert sky. Everyone is welcome to participate.

I Taste Purple

Step into a world where a psychedelic dream meets a desert carnival. Look for our kaleidoscope of purples and our signature lips and tongue logo?we’re a vibrant, welcoming oasis on the playa.

At our camp, creativity knows no bounds. Join us for crafting, contests, parties, our one-of-a-kind “triathlon,” advice of all kinds, and other surprises we dream up each year. Whether you stop by for an activity or just to relax and connect, you’ll find a community that feels like home.

IcyHands Chillzone

We seek out the weary, the overheated and the disconnected to offer our signature Icy Hands experience. The instantaneous sense of relief, joy and connection turns recipients into PARTICIPANTS and makes them part of a larger whole. Icy Hands epitomizes “the gift that keeps on giving” by coaching recipients through providing the experience to others. Hands are cooled to near freezing temperatures by means of a simple block of ice, then with full positive consent of the recipient, those hands are placed upon the neck and jaw, providing an immediate sense of cool, calm and connection.

Block of Ice: $7. Memories, endorphins, friendship and dopamine rush: PRICELESS.

IGNITED STATES

Ignited States is all about our states of mind, our states of being, our states of consciousness. It’s about lighting up our worlds. It’s about igniting and fanning the flames of our creativity. And sometimes, it’s about igniting the fire in our bellies with a shot of fireball.

– Ignite your artful state by making a flag to illustrate the state you’re in
– Ignite your wakeful state with beverages and bad advice
– Fireball Friday Happy Hour ignites your ready-to-party state
– Ignited your playful state with our ring toss game, Heads of State

Illumination Village

Step into a glowing neighborhood where fire, light, music, and human connection collide. By day, find coffee, tea, a public steam bath, workshops, and welcoming spaces to rest, learn, and meet new friends. By night, the frontage ignites into a walk-through Fire Carnival of flame sculptures, interactive art, DJs, and spectacle that runs deep into the night. Dozens of LED installations keep the Village alive until sunrise, making it a beacon visible from across the playa. Come wander, participate, and see what happens when hundreds of creators build one shared world together.

IN DUST WE TRUST

Come for piping hot pour over coffee! Meet interesting people! Challenge the Strip Plank! A harrowing game of skill and poise, walk the plank, grab the cock all while the crowd heckles you with supportive guff (and sass!). Each time you fail, you can try again, but the price is an article of clothing! Winners get to skip the coffee line, losers lose more than their shirt… 9am to Noon, Monday through Saturday.

Watch our events chalkboard for Capers’ Erotic Fiction Reading and Improv Competition! There may be puppets.

Also, our coffee bar will be periodically taken over by the mutinous Priva-tea-ers for piping cold ice tea! Join and walk the plank (with your pinkie out)! Times TBD!

Insomnophilia is erecting the House of Pachi for Axis Mundi. Welcoming back the river otter who walks between worlds — water and land, waking and dream, earthly and celestial. for Axis Mundi. Witness the sacred arc of birth, ministry, daily communion, death, and resurrection across the week. Whether you arrive by chance or by calling, you are expected. Come worship, confess, pray, dance, and drink from the flowing river of Pachi.

Interaction Café

We create a space where servers get to create their ideal burning man experience by choosing interactions offered to guests who come by, and guests choose whichever of their offerings tickles their fancy. The result is consensual weird and wonderful experiences, and it’s hard to leave our camp, because you never know what might happen next: one moment it’s sweet and moving, and the next it’s rowdy and hysterical. During self-service hours, guests use menus to engage in interactions between themselves.

Intergalactic

Interzone
