2025 Theme: Realms of The Underworld

For Love Burn 2025, we embark upon a dark and perilous descent to the realms of a new unknown dimension, the Burner Underworld. A place of mystery and shadow, where the veil between worlds is thin, this is the dominion where our burner selves and playa names dwell when we no longer create burns on the Earthly plane. In these realms, our burner selves await to be called forth to burn again, or forever rest in memory. 

As we cross this tenuous threshold between the default world and the burn experience, we find ourselves on the banks of Virginia Key, the gateway to this Underworld. The waters are treacherous and ominous, and the ferryman Charon awaits, demanding a toll to transport us to the other side.

Cast your coin, and climb aboard.


Beyond these inky waters, we enter the sandy Shores of the Beyond, where the shades of our Burner selves reside. We wander through the meandering streets and festive theme camps, searching for answers to the questions that compel us. The whispers of the winds guide us, sharing tales of love, creation, and transformation.

In the vast center, we arrive at the Elysian Field, where the effigy and The Temple of the Inner Sun hold sway. The burn field is a haunting tableau, bathed in an eerie twilight that blurs the line between reality and dream. Shadows dance across the intricate structures, casting stretched silhouettes that seem to breathe and whisper secrets of the night. Incredible works of art and interactivity abound, each one a tantalizing glimpse into the Underworld's dark delights and designs. Sculptures twist and writhe with a life of their own, while ethereal lights pulse in time with the beat of distant drums.

Will we succumb to the allure of the Underworld's shadows, or will we find the courage to participate and contribute by adding our own creativity to this realm?

While we navigate the twists and turns of the Burner Underworld, we come face to face with our own identities when we burn. The sinuous Labyrinth of the Playful Soul stretches before us, a maze of reflections and revelations, where every turn presents a new fragment of our deepest fears and desires.

Will we find our way out, or will we become lost in the depths of our own psyche?

Who are we burners as we stand before judgment—will you tip the scales as your heart is weighed against your MOOP (matter out of place) over the years?

Will you drag all your belongings to camp, only to have the belongings return to your vehicle, over and over again, a Sisyphean cycle that mirrors our existential quests?

In these daily journeys within the Realms of the Underworld, we discover the Gift of Transformation. The secrets of creative rebirth and social renewal await us. Can we embrace the Underworld domain’s cycle of creation and destruction, or will we cling to the familiar and sheltered continuation of the temporal world above?

Leaving the Burner Underworld, we carry within us the lessons of the shadows. We return to the default world above, forever changed by our journey and trials. The memories of this particular Underworld will linger, a reminder of the sincere, creative, and heartfelt mysteries that lie just beyond the edge of our everyday reality.

Next February 13-16, 2025, join us in Miami as we descend and journey throughout the Realms of the Underworld.
