Burnerella celebrates bisbee.

Burnerella harbors the world-weary pilgrim in Bisbee’s citadel of eclectic creativity, history, and freedom.

Burnerella’s founders felt how Bisbee itself whispered inspiration from its buildings, alleys and stairs. To walk its streets is to absorb into your tissue the same creative energy that vibrates off the old walls and bounces back down at us from the clouds. To know the people here is to feel how that energy has nourished them like rain.

Though one could not be blamed for wanting to hide this rarity for themselves the organizers of Burnerella know that true beauty is in sharing Bisbee with the world.

Burnerella was founded by burners as the first burn-adjacent event in Bisbee. inspired by the famous ten principles, Burnerella is not a sanctioned burning man event.

It is not trying to be.

though our small town event cannot “decommodify” as Burners do for two weeks annually in the parched heat of the Nevada Desert, Burnerella aspires to share the beauty and simplicity of the remaining principles with the world: radical inclusion, gifting, radical self-reliance, radical self expression, communal effort, civic responsibility, leaving no trace, participation and immediacy.

And, as do many burners around the world, Burnerella also includes consent as the eleventh principle.

Burnerella manifests Bisbee’s beauty through art cars, installations, live music, and performances, while giving back to a community of creators, dreamers, and artists.

Burnerella challenges you to dance past the encumbrances of your daily life and lean into the principles.

Express, connect, volunteer, gift, join, participate.

Be in Bisbee.
