Готовясь к пустыне, помните, что берете на себя полную ответственность.

Руководствуйтесь здравым смыслом: нужно привезти в пустыню все необходимое, включая еду, воду, принадлежности для ночлега, бензин и аптечку. В том числе, нужно увезти все обратно – наше событие не оставляет следов.

Распечатайте или сохраните файл билета перед выездом на заряженном устройстве. Убедитесь на 100%, что имя в билете и паспорте совпадают. Наша команда на входе запрашивает документы для верификации билета и не допустит вас на мероприятие, если имена на них не совпадают.

Основное

ЭТО НЕ ПРОСТО ВЕЧЕРИНКА И НЕ ДИСКОТЕКА. ЭТО НАСТОЯЩИЙ РАЗРЫВ В ПУСТЫНЕ, ГДЕ ОБЯЗАТЕЛЬНО ПОНАДОБЯТСЯ:

- Your ticket & photo ID for entry (SA ID, driver’s licence or passport) – ensure the name on your ticket is the same name on your ID/Passport.

- Vehicle Pass (one per vehicle). Caravans and trailers don’t need a VP but motorcycles do.

- 5 litres of water per person per day - carry a bottle of water with you and rehydrate regularly.

- Enough food and beverages for the duration of your entire stay.

- Shelter, bedding, and preferably an open shade structure too. If it’s not windproof, kiss it goodbye.

- Protective clothing (including warm clothes and waterproof gear). It might be the desert and it is very warm in the day, but nights can be freezing and if and when it rains, it pours.

- Trash bags – because you’re going to be taking it all back with you.

- Fire extinguisher.

- Comprehensive medical aid kit. Any required prescriptions (please note: our medics don’t dispense painkillers, headache tabs or antibiotics)

- Lighting: a headlamp, torch, bike light, fairy lights, EL wire (and spare batteries). Solar lights rock – find ‘em & use ‘em.

- Duct tape & cable ties – because they hold the universe together!

- Bringing wood? Bring a brazier or braai - campfires on the ground are NOT permitted.

- Recycling bins: you’ll need one for wet waste, and others for paper, plastic and metal / glass. Check out local area recycling depots, and use them on your way home – there’s nowhere for you to leave your trash on site.

Do NOT bring

Sure, it’s a burn you’re going to, but there are some items that are seriously not wanted at the event, and all for the same reason: they’re dangerous, either as mobile arson, or to critters. Not lekker.

- Feathers of any kind, such as boas, which shed and get blown in the wind.

- Glitter (even bio-degradeable, because others can’t tell whether it’s degradeable, and will assume all glitter’s ok, which results in horrifically difficult clean-ups for Leave No Trace Volunteers)

- Flares, Fireworks, Fire lanterns, explosives or firearms of any kind, including BB guns or pellet guns.

- Excess packaging. Lighten your load – just bring the contents.

- Plants and pets of any kind. If it doesn’t belong there, leave it where it does.

- Sparkle Ponies

Highly Recommended

- Umbrellas, parasols, hats, sunscreen, lip balm and sunglasses.

- Bring a bicycle (mountain bikes are best) and decorate it, make it an installation, light it up for nighttime cruising. Bring a puncture kit.

- A portable shower.

- Smokers should bring a portable ashtray. No butts on the floor. At all. Not even one, boet. The Tankwa is pristine and we are all tasked with keeping it that way.

- Anything that can make sharp tent staves safer (tennis balls: perfect).

- An extra set of car keys, just in case.

- Costumes, musical instruments, signs, body paint and anything else that might enrich and make your AfrikaBurn more fun for you and your neighbours.
