イベント中 - During the event
🎌日本語
💂English
At Burning Japan, all events and activities are created by participants, whether prepared in advance, such as theme camps, or created in the moment. Participants are invited to join any of these events or activities and to create their own experiences.
This might vary from being a small group doing yoga, someone teaching contact impro dancing, a sensual laughter workshop, a shibari session or a syntheist mass....No subject is taboo at Burning Japan.
🎉Events and Activities
We can not list all events and activities.
Some Theme Camps listed their tentative schedules here (you can add your own too):
If you plan to create your own theme camp, check this page:
🍳 Cooking
You're in charge of your own cooking. You can use both gas cookers, electric stoves or a small BBQ.
For BBQ, use a Fireproof Mat to protect the ground and avoid MOOP.
💩 Toilets
There will be toilet facilities located around the site (indicated on the map). Only the 4 Ps should go in any toilet: Pee, Poop, Paper, Period blood. NO wet wipes, tampons, plastic or any other objects.
Do not use the forest as your toilet: It’s unacceptable during the burn with so many people. Human faeces can cause serious illness and pollute the groundwater. Please don’t poop or pee anywhere other than the toilets provided!
You can volunteer to help with toilets maintenance.
🚰 Water
There are no water taps. Please bring your own water.
Non-drinkable water will be provided to wash your dish. Please be careful to not dispose water with non-biodegradable product directly on the ground and use grey water tank.
💦Showering
There is no shower. If you use your own showers, please be careful to not dispose water with non-biodegradable product directly on the ground and use grey water tank.

🌲 Leaving during the event
You are of course allowed to leave Burning Japan during the week, do not forget your bracelet to be able to re-enter.
You can either shower at the Onsen mentioned above, or refill food and drinks at near supermarkets (~30mi by car).
💬 Talk to people
Once you are here, you will quickly realize that people are very open, curious and friendly and even just passing by a stranger is often accompanied by eye-contact and smiles. Of course you don’t have to stay within your own camp only, pick up some courage and say hello to people and you will be surprised what all emerges and whom you will get to know.
