Give, receive, gift, love, and connect at PortalBurn, a New York tribute to Burning Man. No vendors—only friends and like-minded folks, gathering to dance, live, explore, and celebrate. Music, artistic performances, and nature await!

The festival organisers say:

“POrtalBurn is a sanctioned regional Burning Man event in New York State, guided by the Ten Principles of Burning Man (look them up and learn them!).

Each year we design and set up a temporary community where everyone participates. There are no vendors; nothing can be bought or sold. Items are freely gifted. The entire event is run by volunteers. Everyone including Board Members, Department Leads, Medics, and Rangers is volunteering, because POrtalBurn belongs to them and you…POrtalBurn IS YOU!

Here you will find the wild, the wonderful, the magical…a world of unbridled creativity and self-expression through music, art, performances, gatherings, food, drink and participatory events. Join us in creating this world…

This year, POrtalBurn returns to Hummingbird Hill in Almond, NY. It has an open field, a swimmable pond, wooded areas, a trail and overlook, and ample grounds suitable for camping. There is an indoor pavilion (we call it the Burrow and it is a space shared by the community for events) with a deck overlooking the site and pond.”
