Event

Uncompression Festival 2019

There is no official Decompression this year, so welcome to UNCOMPRESSION, the entirely UNOFFICIAL rogue bastard angry little brother of that other event that is on hiatus!

The parking lot will be gated and permitted, so you can wander out there with drinks to admire mutant vehicles and get some food, or party inside on the dance floor, smoking patio, billiard hall, and bar. Our capacity is in the hundreds instead of the thousands, so this is more like the loft parties from the old days than like a giant festival.

Everything is volunteer and participatory like in the Black Rock Desert, so there will be whatever chill spaces or cooking or whatever you want to help make happen. We can use shade structures, tables, pillows, rugs, art...

And although everyone here has been to that thing in the desert, this event has no affiliation whatsoever with the LLC that owns and operates Burning Man. Ticket prices cover the costs of permits, fencing, security, food, etc, and whatever is left over goes to the nonprofit Los Angeles League of Arts.

DJs, mutant vehicles, flow performers, artists, theme camps, freaks, and other participants contact burners@theotherdoorbar.com for details!
