FAQ

Do I need to volunteer?

We encourage ticket holders to volunteer if they can. You are SideBurn’s lifeblood and through your efforts you get to truly embody the Burning Man principles of Communal Effort and Participation. Our ability to run this event depends on volunteers showing up. As you go to buy your ticket, you will be prompted to log into our volunteer system and indicate at least one period and area of SideBurn where you can join and contribute. Consider taking on more than one shift!

Land Acknowledgement
We gather for SideBurn on the traditional territories of the Haudenosaunee, the Anishinaabe, the Mohawks of the Bay of Quinte, the Huron-Wendat, the Mississaugas, and other Indigenous peoples from across Turtle Island. We are grateful to have the opportunity to work and build community on this land.
