Gate Sales:
We encourage everyone to pre-buy their tickets before coming
to Kiwiburn as it helps with organising the event. Gate Sale
tickets will be more expensive than retail sales.
If you wish to leave during the event you will be required to
pay a re-entry fee (so bring EVERYTHING that
you will need) . A group facilitated ice and water-run will
be available to participants during the event.
These rules are to:
*
Promote self reliance
* Promote community interactions
* Reduce "spectator"
attendance
*
Give the guys running the greeter station time to go party
If for some reason you need to arrive outside
these hours we will have to pre-approve this. Please email
admin@kiwiburn.com and explain:
* The circumstances
that make it impossible for you to attend the full festival.
* The contribution that you are making
In case you're wondering what happens to the money you pay for your
ticket...
Kiwburn is a collective experience. Everyone
contributes, everybody pays. This is the underlying principle for the
budget. Your ticket money goes into a pool, from which the expenses
involved in putting on the event are paid. These expenses include:
- Council fees
for use of land and permits. Safety equipment.
- Donation to a local nature reserve to help offset the greenhouse
gas emissions from the festival.
- Provision
of toilets to meet OSH
regulations.
- Building
and kitting out of infrastructure (Centre Camp, The Man, The
Temple, Greeter Station, signage within the town)
- Printing
of tickets, posters, survival guides, miscellaneous
information.
- Hiring of
a professional emergency medical crew to meet OSH
standards for safety.
- Donations
to the local fire brigade for their presence at the burns.
This does not take into account all the work done for free, and
incidental costs from their own pockets, of the
volunteers. We hope that in years to come, Kiwiburn
will be big enough to source our First Aid from within the community, but
meanwhile in order to have the event we must hire professionals. These are
the only people who get paid to be there.
As you can see, Kiwiburn has a lot
of expenses, and these are what your ticket pays for. In the
event that ticket sales outweigh expenses and there is money
left over after the festival, all surplus
will be re-invested into next years festival. Our festival is growing, our tickets
help with that.
After the festival if you are interested in seeing exactly where the
money went, please visit this site for a complete summary of expenses and
income, and how much will go back into next year's festival.
