Burnsong follows the 10 principles of Burning Man which create an instantaneous, temporary and radical sense of community
Set in native New Zealand Bush, Burnsong will be held at the secluded Birdsong Retreat on the Akaroa Peninsula. Space is limited to 40 participants, so get in quick to reserve your tickets.
We are asking for a $10 donation per person to cover power and petrol costs for the site- please register your details here: http://goo.gl/forms/d7z5yyZlwr and follow the instructions for payment.
Due to the nature of the road up to the retreat, and limited parking onsite, we will be taxiing participants up to the event from the Wainui Community Centre. If you have a vehicle you need to bring to site to sleep in, please include this information when you register for a ticket.
The Taxi Service will run from 12-5pm Saturday, and 11am-3pm on Sunday. EVERYONE must be onsite before dark, so please don’t arrive late or you’ll be partying alone down at the beach.
Please bring a dish for the potluck plus your own plate, cup and cutlery, a torch, sturdy footwear and your friendliest smile.
