Burnal Equinox Starts Today

The Burnal Equinox art and music festival starts today, Friday April 12. From today at 10 AM to Sunday at 11PM, the Spring Spinnoff of the Burn2 event will take place with many sights to see, and much tunes to listen to.

Burnal Equinox is our traditional event that we hold midway between our annual October “big Burn” events. This year the theme for the spring event is “Eyes to the Skies”. Creatives are invited to start thinking about tunes, writings and art to bring to the playa.

So, what is this “Eyes to the Skies” theme about? And when is the event? Glad you asked.

The next event of Burn2, Burnal Equinox, takes place the weekend of 12th through 14th April. As it happens, the opening coincides with a worldwide celebration of the first human to enter space, called Yuri’s Night.

So, how do we celebrate space, the Great Beyond, on the dusty dry desert lake bed we call the Playa? That’s for YOU to decide! While keeping playa aesthetics always in the forefront of your mind, you can create art and music to celebrate space, human curiosity, and the explorer’s spirit that led us to fly ever further “out there”.

You are invited to come and do this with us, explore with us, create with us, dance and play and … of course, BURN!
