There is not a single fence that you will need to go through at the event. Also note that there are vehicles on the property that are the land owners, they are not there to be played on or vandalized. A good rule to learn, “If it’s not yours, don’t touch it”, consent is awesome!!

Label your things, phone, camera, keys, etc. There will be white boards to write announcements on located at the HQ (Hind Quarters), We plan to have a radio station for personal announcements and event announcements, located at STAGE.

Theme Camp Applications for 2025 are now OPEN!!

Theme Camps are pre-approved group themed camping that get placed in the Theme Camp area, which is a centralized area around the giant Metal Bunny!! STAGE is also located in this area. Placement is the cut off for General camping and Theme Camps, only approved marked vehicles at GATE are allowed into the Theme Camp area. Only Mutant vehicles, and approved adaptive vehicles are allowed to drive into the Theme Camp area during the event.

A Schedule of events will be created closer to the event, as we ask all Theme camps to produce at least three events, one being ART related. The schedule will be posted on the F-Book page.

If you have any questions please email paganbunnyburnthemecamps@gmail.com

General Camping

Please remember no Theme Camps in General camping or RV Camping. WE have lot’s of space for Theme Camps, please apply.

No Circling the Wagons, or saving space for friends in general camping. If you want to camp together please arrive together at GATE.

RV’s and Vehicles must park perpendicular to the road.

No roping off or taping off a space for a friend.

If you want to camp together, you must arrive together at GATE.!!

NO SOUND!!

No rogue theme camps in General Camping or in the RV parking/Camping areas, Thank you!

What does that mean? It means no designated theme camps, in the RV and general camping area, where people take up space (like circle the wagons), create a road front, and have a scheduled event. This year we will be requesting that all vehicles park perpendicular to the road, not parallel and pull up as far as they can (with in reason) to make room. There are quite hours in the general RV and Camping areas as well. Quiet Hours are from 10 pm to 9 am. We have more people bringing RV's and trailers due to the past events weather, and we need to make room for every one.

You can still park with your friends and do your things, in the general camp and RV area we are just trying to curb loud groups from upsetting neighbors, and land grabbing

Email paganbunnyburnthemecamps@gmail.com, if you have any questions!!

ARTISTS

Are you an artist? Do you dabble in them? Do you create 2-D or 3-D pieces? Do you spin music? Do you play an instrument? Are you a comedian? A poet? A magician? A juggler? A singer? A dancer? A fire performer? A Mutant Vehicle creator? (I hope you get the idea)

We LOVE ART!!!

We have created an atmosphere for you. Pagan Bunny Burn is the place where all artist are equal. By staying away from vending and selling of art and things, all artist can play together and create freely.

Bring your art, we have a spot for you to share it, at your camp as a non registered ARTist or in the ART competition!

ART Garden for registered ART!

Big art, small art, we have the room!

Pagan Bunny Burns' goal is to help artist make more art, better art, and art for arts sake. May it be a piece to something bigger that is still being created, bring it, share it and be amazed by the gratitude of those around you for doing it.
