Bring the spirit and imagination of Black Rock City to the Bay and help create this year's inspiring incarnation of "Black Top City" -- an urban version of Burning Man along the waterfront at the Potrero Power Station. Last year was an incredible experience at this location, and we are thrilled to be back in 2019.
Let's once again create a wonderful microcosm of BRC, with art big and small, mutant vehicles, theme camps, inner- and deep-playa explorations, performances, parades, live music, film, dancing, friends, family, and discovery!
* Kids 12 and under free.
* Food & drinks available all day.
* No outside alcohol or coolers permitted.
* No In's & Out's
* Stay hydrated! Free water stations - bring your own empty bottle.
* Reduce waste! Bring your own reusable cup for the bars just as you would at Burning Man. We are working with the city to reduce use of disposable cups and utensils and need your help.
!! 2019 CALL FOR PARTICIPATION !!
Just like 2018, we are very fortunate to be able to have a "build week" (well, 3 build days!) before our event, to allow more time for the creation and installation of big art and big ideas! Please apply as early as possible so we can plan to support you with scheduled time, infrastructure (power, equipment) and possibly volunteers to help you take Black Top City to the next level!
