| Center
Camp |
Center
Camp at Kiwiburn serves a similar function to Center Camp at Burning Man - a stage, generator and
amplifier will be available for people to display their
skills, be they dj's, musicians, cultural groups, poets or stand up
comics. If you would like to schedule a performance or have
any questions for Center Camp
coordinators, please send email to centercamp@kiwiburn.com. |
| The Green Fairy
|
The Green Fairy returns once again to the
Paddock. Visit Kiwiburn's premiere black light lounge for
a jazzy downtempo ambience, and of course our signature
libation. (always looking for guest DJs) |
| B Movie Camp
- Twisted Toons Edition |
Short films and animations to blow your
mind. We're pleased to present the return of B Movie Camp,
this time as the Twisted Toons Edition. As Kiwiburn's resident
movie theatre, we'll be showing a random collection of short
films, music videos and animations, none of which will be
longer than 10 minutes. Some shorts are suitable for children,
others might need a little bit of an explanation. But then,
some shorts might not be suitable for adults, either!

| Band Camp
|
For those about to rock, we salivate you.
We will rock you. And maybe folk you too. And dub you, punk
you, metal you, pop you and orchestrate you. We want to
hear from bands, solo singer-songwriters, and people who
want to bring an instrument for our jam sessions in Centre
Camp. Full bands who contact us before November get priority
place in our nighttime concerts.Some gear will be provided
- small PA, mixing desk, stage, lighting, shelter. Email
jon.helix (at) gmail dotcom to enquire. This is a sound
camp, but plans to close at midnight. |
| Balrogs Playpen
|
You all know what a Balrog is, well, it
had babies... the babies have to learn how to use that fire
whip some how, and Kiwiburn is just the place for that.
Fire-dancers (balrog babies) unite here with fire-poi, staffs,
devil stix, whips, skipping ropes, rope darts... etc...
At night we will wow you with our flames, during the day
we will show you how it's done without fire... We'll make
our papa Balrog proud. Child friendly in the daytime, not
so much at night. |
| THE ARK
|
Saving you from the Flood. Relaxing space
to chill out in the day, take refuge from the madness in
the night...or pass out on your way back from The Green
Fairy. Come in one by one or two by two.. we will rescue
you from the flood and we will satisfy you with our cookies.
Child friendly, more so in the daytime. |
| KIWIBURN KOSTUME KORNER/WEARABLE
ARTS FASHION HOUSE

The Kostume Korner is coming back and will
be bigger and badder than ever. We are merging with the
Wearable Arts Fashion House and will have our own location
up near the gate. We aim to make everyone paddock-fabulous.
Come find and/or make a costume. Clothing, fabric, sewing
machine, and lots of decorations will be available to anyone
and everyone. Get your costume ready for the Fashion Show
on Friday afternoon and the Wearable Arts Parade on Saturday
night!NOTE: This camp is looking for help and donations
from the community. All shiny, glittery, glowy, furry, funky,
and outrageous clothing items (hats, shirts, shorts, pants,
slippers, PJ's, coats) and fabric contributions are welcome.
Help us create the best fashion house on the paddock!

this through music or video. |
