I imagine that info would for sure show up on the ticket buying page. If it won’t ship to Aus then maybe there will be no choice and will only show will call delivery. That’s my 2 cents... :coffee: Thanks. It is helpful for me to know before I go through the process, as there may need to be some lo...

Hi everyone, Registered for DGS sale tomorrow, and coming from Australia. Trying to decide on whether to get tickets mailed out to me, or to collect at Will Call. I've heard that the Org won't mail out to Australia, and I will have to collect from Will Call, but just wanted to check. Does anyone kno...

Thanks all - very helpful.

Looking at a heart - not a love heart, but a human heart. I've attached a rough mock up below next to a dude for size comparison. So it's probably 2 or 2.5 meters tall - so about 6 or 7 feet. Not sure on what materials yet, but need something lightweight, easily transportable, and won't blow over in...

Hi all, (Wasn't sure where best to place this, so please move if there is a more appropriate spot) I am hoping for some advice on an art project that I am building with some friends for the regional burn here in Oz, as well as some other festivals. I basically need some tips on materials and design ...

Thanks all. That is very helpful.

Does anybody have any experience with playa dust corroding jewellery? My wife and I would like to wear our wedding rings while on the playa. Hers is 9 karat gold (I think), while mine is sterling silver with a thin gold band around it (not sure the quality of the gold). We're a bit concerned that th...

G'day, Just thought I'd drop by and say hello. This year will be me and the missus' very first burn. I have been dreaming/scheming about coming to Burning Man for as long as I can remember really, and we finally have the opportunity to do it. So what can I say about us? We hail from Melbourne, Austr...

Thanks.

Thanks.

Thanks both.

trilobyte - yes, we will have heaps of personal lighting. We're just not sure if we want/need lights for our bikes as well. And we have also organised headlamps as well. What are your thoughts on having both personal lights and bike lights?

Hi all, Just a quick question - what are people's thoughts regarding having a light for a bike as well as personal lights? My wife and I will have a heap of EL wire and fairy lights tied to our clothing at night. Given this, we weren't sure whether having lights on our bikes would be necessary as we...

Would a tarp scratch the paint? I've heard people say as such, but don't know first-hand. If so, I'm wondering if there's a way to avoid that. Hmm, that's a good point. Maybe a table cloth (fuzzy side down)or some blankets could help with that. Thanks BBadger, but trying to minimise the amount of s...

Thanks all for those additional comments. Very helpful.

No wucken furries. I'll keep that in mind for next time

Thanks all. Specific comments below. You may want to line the collapsable coolers with a thin refletive emergency blanket. That has worked well for me on other camping trips - a little added insulation, and block ice will keep it cooler longer. Thanks Sadie. What sort of shops sell these in the Unit...

Hi all, My wife and I are coming from Australia this year for our first burn. Coming all that way, we are trying to minimise the amount of stuff we need to carry. So we are bringing one (maybe 2) 20L collapsible cooler(s). There is a picture at the bottom of this post (sorry about the size). We are ...

Thanks

It seems much of the discussion in this part of the forum is about the music, which is great. But I also want to know what talks/lectures/forums (fora?) will be on the playa this year. I know that TEDx has been at BRC the last two years. Need something for my mind once the body and soul are all worn...

Thanks all. That is really helpful. Responses below. Just a few quick comments: 1). Don't count on Harbor Freight having what you need. Half of the burners coming from that direction will beat you to it and there isn't a lot of backstock. Suggest you purchase what you need now and ship it in, or bri...

Hi there eplaya. Long time listener. First time caller. So, after years (and years and years) of dreaming, the missus and I are finally making it to the playa ... ! Been doing much research into possible shade options. We are flying into San Fran on the 23rd of August. We are coming from Australia, ...
