Location: Esplanade & 6:30
The Lamplighters began in 1993, with a small group of participants placing a dozen or so kerosene lanterns on the ground each evening, illuminating a pathway towards The Man.
The Lamplighters are more than a handful of volunteers; they are a team of well over 100 participants every evening. To accomplish this considerable task, we ask for your help, and we invite you to be a part of this community, this event, and our tradition.
The Lamplighters begin EVERY EVENING of the event in their center camp workspace at around 5pm. The ceremony begins around 6, and soon the work is done. No experience is required. We welcome virgin and seasoned burners alike. One thing is certain though. We can't do it without YOU.
