This is NOT a list of officially accepted or placed theme camps, it’s a preview of what you’ll find when you get to Black Rock City.
This is the list of Theme Camps who submitted a Placed Camp Questionnaire requesting placement in Black Rock City’s reserved sections for this year and want to be listed publicly.
Placement is announced in Early July. These are the camps Placement is reviewing. To find out what camps did receive placement look through the Playa Info Directory in Center Camp.
To find camps not included on the BRC Map or to find camps that chose not to be listed, you’ll just have to get lucky.

A Chill Artsy Village in the Suburbs
Come visit Friendzied Serenity, Front Porch Sitters and the GILF in Vaude Ville, relax in the shade, participate in one of our many events and try one of the special “Kiwi” drinks away from the hustle & bustle of the Esplanade. In addition to minor bike repairs, we will help you pimp your bike seat! We will have foam, fabric and accessories to help you make your bike seat more comfortable.
Vault 21+
We have emerged from our vault to find wasteland denizens are much friendlier than anticipated. With any luck we will be able to convince them to help us fix our Large Hardon Collider and dispose of radioactive insects that plague us. Our soda fountain serves only the finest in golden age beverages, music, and karaoke.

Vietnamese Iced Coffee Experience is an all inclusive Burning Man Theme Camp. We encourage diversity, participation, and acceptance and welcome new members from all locales and walk of life. Our camp commitments are minimal, as such we do expect members to be radically self sufficient when it comes to personal needs although we’re more than happy to help out with pre-event planning and support in extreme situations. Participating in our afternoon coffee service is more reward than obligation and we also offer several community directed activities for those that wish to participate. We have camp events during the week to ensure everyone feels included. We’d be happy to welcome you to join our group. Contact us for more information!
