For 10 years, we’ve been raising sails, building art, fueling dreams, and forging an unlikely crew of misfits, makers, doers, and wonder-seekers. We started small — a sophisticated camp with a couple of carports, a speaker, and more ambition than infrastructure. Year after year, tide after tide, our little ship kept growing.This year, the tides have officially turned.
For the first time ever, the SophistaPirates are heading to Burning Man as a full theme camp, bringing immersive pirate worlds, interactive art, and our signature hospitality to the dust. And as always, we’ll be taking that same energy to Element 11, building out our camp, art, and interactivity for our home burn.
But big dreams require big support, and that’s where our annual fundraiser comes in.
Join us for an unforgettable night of music, art, performances, and community as we raise funds to build the infrastructure, art, and interactivity the playa demands.
Let’s turn this tide together.
