Press Release: Burn2 Burnal Equinox March 27-29

Burn2 is pleased to announce the upcoming event Burnal Equinox, which takes place March 27 through 29th this year. The Theme is "Balance."

Equinox is the time when the day and night are of equal length. It is also the start of both Spring (Northern Hemisphere) and Autumn (Southern Hemisphere). In the virtual world, we can mix all things together, so we can have bats flying down to sip the nectar from the new spring flowers in the daytime, or autumn leaves transforming into buterflies at night. Our only limitation is our imagination.

This event is a short but bright and exciting burst on the calendar. It will feature new and experienced artists, live musicians, DJs, and performers all working to an interesting theme. All are welcome to join the celebration.


Artists and builders are invited to sign up for a plot and build to the theme. DJs, live musicians, and performers are also welcome to apply to play during the event weekend.

Please let us know when you have included us in your publications as we link back to online TV, magazine and blog posts at Http://www.burn2.org/media_coverage. We would love to include you! Just email a link to your content to communications@burn2.org, and we'll include it.

Burn2 is the virtual extension of the Burning Man festival and community into the world of Second Life. It spreads Burning Culture and the Burning Man Ten Principles all year round. Burn2 is one Burning Man regional, out of more than 100 first world Regional groups.

We encourage you to use the following labels and hashtags when you write about the event: Burn2, #burn2. We will promote those tags to make it easier for people to find your content.

The Burnal Equinox Opens

The Burnal Equinox opened at 12 noon SL time with a gathering of burners and visitors at the entrance to parade to the center camp. 

The lamplighters led us from the entrance all around the sim lighting as they went, and drumming and dancing all the way. All the crowd followed right along dancing and enjoying it all the way to the center camp roof where the parties will be held until Sunday night! 

There are some amazing creative  builds here on the playa . Take a walk around to see them all. There will be parties with great DJs most of the time so don’t miss them. 

When you enter you will find some freebie folders near the gate . Be sure to stop and pick them up . There is fire in them.... wear it!. There is also a sinking ship that you will see in your travels that also has freebies in it. That ship will burn! 

See you on the playa! http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Burning%20Man-%20Deep%20Hole/69/39/24
