Got a big idea? We want it! Theme submissions for Kiwiburn 2027 are officially open, and this is your chance to help shape the magic of the burn. The chosen theme will ripple through everything—from the KB27 poster and art grants to the effigy and temple—so dream bold and think weird.
Submissions close at 9pm on Sunday 1 March 2026. Shortlisted ideas may get a quick follow-up by phone or email, so make sure we can reach you. We can’t wait to see where your imagination takes us.
All of the past themes can be found here.
