A Midpoint Celebration of Creativity & Community!

Whether you’re starting to plan your next journey towards Black Rock City or curious about cutting-edge Bay Area culture, Burnal Equinox – marking the midpoint between Burns – provides a chance to connect, ignite, and revel in the creative fire that fuels our community.

Join us for an unforgettable evening of interactive art, electrifying performances, immersive experiences, and deep playa vibes, all within the heart of San Francisco. Whether you’re a seasoned burner or new to the magic, this is your space to express, experiment, and celebrate radical self-expression, participation, and connection.
