CANCELED: East Bay Burner Social | Oakland

> EVENT UPDATE: This event is no longer taking place.

East Bay Burners are a group of Burning Man devotees who all live around the East Bay and get together monthly to talk, exchange ideas, teach, learn and have fun.

The East Bay Burner Social takes place monthly in the run-up to the festival and features a different speaker or topic of discussion each time. The group is a great way to meet new Playa friends, or if you’re a beginner, to figure out what Burning Man is all about.

The East Bay Burner Socials are family friendly (kids welcome) wheelchair accessible, and to facilitate discourse, don’t have loud music.

Theme camps are the interactive core of Burning Man. This month you’ll hear from 10 theme camp and village leaders who’ll tell you what it takes to build a successful mini metropolis in the desert. As camp leaders, the speakers have experienced it all, from massive gifting to surviving mutinous campers, and from renting porta potties to love on the playa. This is going to be an entertaining night.

Immediately following the Village Roundtable will be Theme Camp Speed Dating. Wanting a new camp to join and contribute to? Then this is your chance. These camps are looking for new members to participate in a variety of fun interactive play. New and veteran Burners welcome.

Plus the Black Rock Costume Exchange will have a table of clothes to swap or accept your dusty attire for their ongoing free XChange.

They’ll have a dedicated space for some activities including games and guided craft activities for Junior Burners.
