Burning Man Café goes on a Retarded Journey

Dear burners in Vienna,

it's time to meet again to DANCE! Welcome to the Summer Edition of Burning Café Extended.

This time, it is going to be more – if YOU make it more! Burning Café Extended is... a Burning Café with DJs, dance, gifts, marvels, costumes and fun… that is, everything YOU are willing to make of it. We provide the dancefloor, we provide some music and a bar – the rest is up to you.

This time we will meet again at the Retarded Journey Headquaters – a wonderful location that reminds us of a camp on the playa! There is a stage, a bar, a roof, some couches, lots of space in between and a bonfire as well. Everything is outdoors, there are lots of possibilities to co-create!

The dress code is as always: radical selfexpression! What that stands for is defined by YOU. So come as what makes you feel your best

VOLUNTEERS

This event is created by US! There are many ways how you can help to make this event happen. As the event is public and free, we won’t have a Gate. Nonetheless, we are looking for volunteers to help us with preparing and running the event (see: Build & Gate).

WORKSHOPS & HAPPENINGS

As Schönburn is coming closer, we decided to give the teams some space and therefore can't host workshops this time. We can still host small happenings, which happen in the background like "pimp up your outfit". If you have any questions, reach out to burningcafe@burners.at.

MUSIC & LIVE ACTS

You can register until 8.8.22

BAR

Retarded Journey will rock the bar for us! Bring some cash!

BYOC

Bring Your Own Cup! And plate! And whatever else you'll need!

FOOD

We will need some fuel for all the fun! We will create a corner for food to gift and share! To radically include everyone, try to bring something vegan.

CONSENT !FIRST! PHOTO POLICY  

To allow everyone to express themselves radically and to feel at ease at all times, we have a policy "Consent !first!, then Photo". You are only allowed to take a photo depicting a person after you have explained to the person that you want to take a photo, for what purpose you take it, and where you intend to publish the photo. Only after all depicted people gave a clear verbal yes to purpose and publication audience was given, you can make a photo. Please keep this in mind and remind other guests when needed. We might have an official photographer wearing a batch taking pictures of people, art and decoration.

LOCATION

The Retarded Journey Headquarters are in the 3rd district.

Address: Karl-Farkas-Gasse 18, 1030 Wien (opposite side of The Nice Guys)

This event is inspired by the 10 principles of Burning Man as well as the 11th principle of “Consent”:
