What to Expect from the Cozy Cat Camp

Shaded Tent Camping

Tent campers will have overhead shade to protect them from direct sun exposure. There will also be shade material on the sides of the shade structure. This will create a private area for people in our camp.

Communal Shade

We will have a shaded common space open to all Cozy Cats and camp visitors. Please try to bring your own chair to ensure that you always have a place to sit. 

Camp Kitchen

We will have a simple community kitchen consisting of a table, stove, some cooking utensils and pots, and a sterilization station. As a community resource, you must keep the kitchen clean and wash what you use. There will be NO freezer or refrigerator, so bring a cooler. And there will be NO organized camp-wide meals. However, if you do wish to cook large portions and share with your campmates, then you are absolutely welcome to do so :)

What NOT to Expect

No Water

Bring your own water! We do not provide water for campers or RVs. You can flag down a service truck for water and/or RV pump out. This is typically a challenging process, so we suggest that you limit your usage of water for showers, cooking, etc. so that you will not need to be pumped while at the event. 

Minimal Power

Cozy Cat Camp does not provide power on a regular basis. Power will be used to run the lights and music. Campers may charge their smaller items, like cameras, phones, and usb battery packs, on one of our camp's personal generators if they first get permission from the generator's owner. Be mindful and try to bring some cash to contribute towards fuel costs, or consider bringing some extra gas with you to help run the generators. Alternatively, maybe you could invest in some spiffy solar panels...

What We Expect from YOU

Camp Dues

Cozy Cat Camp dues for 2026 are $300. Dues cover the costs of camp infrastructure like shade, lighting, sound, decorations, the Cozy Cat Condo, and more. Dues also go towards storing materials and transporting things to and from the playa. 

Volunteer!

You must participate! You must contribute! Cozy Cat Camp is built through communal effort. We expect you to get shit done and quit complaining. Please do what you can to support your camp mates and help achieve our camp vision. Some opportunities include:

• Art-Building Kitten Crew: Build our art in Reno before Burning Man, or on playa during Build Week

• Camp Setup and Tear Down: Come early or stay late to help with camp setup, strike, and MOOP

• Inventory and Storage: Support organization and storage efforts for camp materials after the Burn

Appreciate the 10 Principles 

Cozy Cats should appreciate the 10 Principles that form the foundation of Burning Man. These principles are not just guidelines; they represent a philosophy and a way of life that can lead to personal growth, community building, and a more conscious and connected existence. Please review them and know them!

Pack-it-in, Pack-it-out

Clean up after yourself! You are responsible for bringing what you need to Burning Man, and YOU are responsible for taking out what you bring in. That includes your trash and food waste. Your efforts to reduce MOOP are much appreciated!!

Law enforcement

Cozy Cats must obey all local, state, and federal laws.
