Kiwiburn is a participatory festival (held annually in New Zealand) where we, the participants, bring and make the things that we want to have here. There are no central stages or headline acts, no queues and few crowds, just a series of surprises. Kiwiburn is a collective experience. Everybody contributes, everybody buys a ticket, even people who have volunteered year-round to make this event happen. Founded in 2004, Kiwiburn is the oldest running Regional Burn outside of mainland U.S.A.

The Burn is an experiment in a temporary community inspired by Burning Man and its 10 principles with the addition of Consent as the 11th principle.

Modifyre is the official Burning Man regional event for Queensland, Australia. The event is built on a series of guiding principles which act as guidelines for the worldwide Burning Man Regional Network. As such, the event may be understood as a celebration of a way of life lived consistently with these principles. Once a year we create a temporary village built on a gift economy, fuelled by communal effort, lit with radical thinking and filled with participatory Art, Theme camps, performance, workshops, music and of course Fire.
Dragonburn is a Shanghai-based community focusing on interactive art, music, fire and pop-up participatory imagination!
