Bali Burners - Channel

⚠️ Attention! This is an Important Post – Please Read Carefully

Burners, this is a crucial topic: photo & video guidelines at Lampu. We’re all about freedom, creativity, and sharing beautiful moments. But we also want to protect our community and ensure that Lampu remains a safe space for radical self-expression.

That’s why we’re setting clear boundaries when it comes to posting content from the event. Please read, understand, and respect these rules.

🔒 What NOT to Post (Ever!)
— No geolocation or specific location names.
— No content that could be interpreted as political or religious.
— No images that could be considered inappropriate or provocative under any cultural or legal framework.

🔎 Before You Post Anything
— Get explicit consent from anyone featured in your photos/videos.
— Be mindful of personal privacy—avoid images of people in intimate, vulnerable, or altered states.

🚨 Consequences for Ignoring These Rules
If you fail to respect these guidelines, we will ask you to delete any problematic posts. If necessary, we will blacklist individuals from future events to protect the safety and privacy of our community.

📸 Basic Photo & Video Etiquette
— If someone asks you to delete a photo or video of them, do it.
— Avoid taking pictures of people who may not realize they’re being photographed. If you capture a great moment, ask for consent before posting.
— Never take photos of people in vulnerable states—sleeping, kissing, or in any situation they might not want shared.

This is about respect, trust, and keeping Lampu a safe space for all. Please follow and share these guidelines — let’s protect what we’re building💛

🕶 We are opened OMG quota.
OMG quota is a special limited allocation for those who want to participate in Lampu but, for any reason, have not found their place within a camp or department. Contribution fee for this quota is intentionally higher than the average amount participants typically contribute through their regular fee and camp fee. More info

📢 Note: Until Lampu ends, this channel and group is reserved exclusively for announcements and camp promotion. Any other messages will be removed.

💬 All communication with the Lampu Core Team and participants, as well as all organizational updates, happens on Discord via the link above.

📱 Lampu 2026 Participants chat

Hey Burners!

We want to bring everyone who resonates with burn culture on Bali into one shared space.

At the same time, we don’t want to create a new Telegram group for every event — Telegram simply isn’t great for community communication. There are already too much Telegram chats.

We want this space to be comfortable, easy to engage with, safe to turn notifications on in the channels you care about, and — most importantly — a place where you can communicate freely, without limits.

We know that communication is something we’re missing right now, and we want to create a space where people can express themselves and interact more openly and safely.

That’s why we chose Discord.

Join the Bali Burners Discord server to:

- find a camp for Lampu or find campmates for your own camp
- receive organizational updates about Lampu 2026
- stay informed about other burner and burner-friendly events on Bali

The Lampu 2026 participant chat will also live there, you’ll get in after you make your contribution.

And yes — there will be local language channels, so you can freely communicate in your own language. But general communication will still be in English.

Organizational updates will not be posted in this channel for safety reason — we’ll keep it for announcements only.

To join the server, you’ll go through a short verification process (just for safety): you’ll be asked which burner events you’ve participated in and in what role. If you’re just curious or new, that’s totally okay too — the burn community is open to everyone who resonates with the 10 Principles.

📱 Download the Discord app from the App Store and follow the link to join Bali Burners on Discord: https://discord.gg/gC8Uh94qdU
(if you already have a ticket, go to ticket bot at My Quotas to take another link to join participant channels)

P.S. Yes, we have our fears too — that it won’t work, that Telegram feels more familiar to most people…
But what is Lampu, really?

Lampu is an experiment in building community.
Treat this as part of that experiment — and maybe, just maybe, the community will become stronger because of it.

🎫 Ticket Sale Is Open! But…

You won’t find a “Buy Ticket” link here — because we’re not selling tickets.

Instead, we’re collecting a contribution fee from participants to cover shared expenses and make Lampu happen.

A ticket is a confirmation of participation and proof that the contribution has been made.

How the funds are allocated has been explained above — and we will continue to keep this process fully transparent.

---

How to Get a Ticket and Join Lampu

First, you need to choose your form of participation — become part of a camp or a department.

Instructions on how to join are provided above.

After that, your lead will give you a participant quota code along with further instructions.

---

Contribution Tiers

- First Kontakter (50 tickets) — 150 tokens SOLD OUT
- Kontakter: (standard contribution until February 15): 200 tokens
- Late Kontakter (contribution after February 15): 250 tokens

The closer we get to the event, the higher the contribution. This is done for one reason only: to collect the necessary funds as early as possible, so we can cover shared expenses — venue rental, equipment, banjar fees, police permits, medical services, and more.

---

Low-Income Tickets

For participants for whom this amount is significant, a limited quota of Low-Income tickets is available (50 tokens).

The only requirement is that you genuinely have a low income and can confirm it.

---

OMG Tickets

If closer to the event there are still available spots (we will not exceed the limit of 500 participants), we will release a limited quota of OMG tickets, allowing participation without joining a camp.

The contribution for OMG tickets will intentionally be higher than the average participant contribution.

---

Please don’t delay making your contribution.

Stay warm. Stay curious. Stay close🔥

Before we open ticket sales, it’s important to clarify what a LAMPU ticket is.

It’s not a product. It’s an organizational contribution made by a participant. It’s general contribution fee for general expenses to make Lampu happen.

Where the money goes: All collected contributions are used exclusively to make LAMPU possible. They cover:
💵 venue and local administrative requirements (local authorities, banjars, police, fire safety, medical services)
💵 rental of essential infrastructure (generators, lighting, technical equipment) and fees for specific specialists
💵 construction of key art: Main Art, Temple, Gates
💵 grants for camps (many camps invest significant personal resources to gift the community meaningful experiences)
💵 a reserve budget to support the launch of the following year

LAMPU is built on participation.

This means that a ticket can only be obtained by a confirmed participants as part of a Camp, the Core Team, or the Volunteer Team. If you are confirmed, your camp lead will send you instructions on how to make your contribution.

The LAMPU Core Team does not make any profit. Core Team members contribute and purchase tickets on the same terms as all other participants.

Transparency is a core principle for us. All financial reports are fully public and available here 👉 Open Financials

If this resonates, stay close.

On Dec 19, we gathered in Nuanu for a Burner’s Bar, to track the approach of 3I/ATLAS.

The signal was received.
Its meaning is still unfolding,
but one thing is certain: Kontakt will happen.

There are no spectators, only participants.

If this resonates, there are many ways to participate in LAMPU, March 5-8:
🧬 Create a camp / Art project
🧬 Join an existing camp
🧬 Become part of the Core Team
🧬 Become a Volunteer

Follow the roadmap toward LAMPU 2026, apply now. Applications: Jan 14 – Feb 14

LAMPU doesn’t happen by itself.
It happens because people show up. Co-creation by those who choose to take part, not just attend.
Stay close

Bali Burners - Channel pinned a photo

This year, a mystery has appeared on humanity’s horizon: the cosmic object 3I/ATLAS, racing toward Earth from the depths of space. Its properties are too unusual for a ordinary asteroid. Some scientists whisper: it could be an artificial probe — or even an interstellar ship sent by an unknown civilization.

What if First Contact is taken off the pages of fiction and lands in reality within the next year? Where will it happen? Among the skyscrapers of megacities, where people's hearts are closed? In the silence of scientific laboratories?

Or in a place where people are already creating incredible worlds, merging art with technology, and ready to meet the unknown with open hearts?

We believe it will be here — at Bali’s Burn - Lampu!

We are the ones who are ready. We build cities of light and sound, we speak in the language of symbols and myths, we awaken imagination and community, we open our hearts to random strangers. The 10 Principles of Burning Man are a manifesto of humanity prepared for the encounter.

That is why this year, our Lampu becomes a rehearsal for First Contact. Here, we will try to hear the signal, to answer it, and to prepare ourselves for the meeting. Perhaps we don’t know what awaits us. But we are ready to look to the sky and say: “We are here.”

Lampu: Kontak is our portal.

It is not just an event.

It is a training ground for the entire Earth — a small island of readiness for a Great Encounter.

🔥 Lampu 2025 – Thank You for the Magic!
Burners, what a journey! Thank you all for making this an unforgettable, heart-filled experience✨
