Burning Seed is Australia’s official regional Burning Man event and the Compression is the pre-festival event.

Burning Seed is a gathering like no other in Australia. Based on Burning Man in the United States: a not-for profit festival put on ENTIRLY by the participants, and based around art and community. The ten principles which include, gifting, radical inclusion, radical self expression, decommodification and leave no trace, change the festival culture to allow for collaboration, participation and experience to be at the forefront. With no money changing hands beyond the entrance gates, no advertising and no sponsorship there is a different atmosphere
generosity and community available.

The theme for this year’s event is Synergy, allowing us to explore the idea that, together we can utilise our talents and energies to create something that goes beyond the capabilities of each individual participant. The Burning Seed Compression party is an opportunity to celebrate, compress and express. Money raised will be contributed directly back into the Burning Seed event later this year.

For more information on Burning Seed head to http://www.burningmanaustralia.com

We encourage you to engage, get involved, and start thinking about how you would like YOUR festival experience to be...

Be Compressed, Impressed, And Dress to eXPRESS!

Starting with Miss China Sky and some chillstep, leading into bands, then around 7pm we will have 2 rooms going- the Compression Chamber and the Steam Room.... Really there will always be quality entertainment of various kinds at ALL times so just come and see what you find! :dancing:
