Salon Soleil provides a welcoming space for personal exploration and self-expression through mental (air), physical (earth), emotional (water) and spiritual (fire) interaction with other beings. Conjuring the four elements through the medium of human experience, we invite the Burning Man community to join us in our quiet, reflective triple Do-Me Dome to explore the emotional and mental underside of your previous night's playa play.

Ponder your possible futures with one of our clairvoyant soothsayers or discuss the mysteries of the universe with other philosophically-oriented burners. Add to your list of escapades by coming to our second annual fire opera -- Burning Hope/Naked Fear -- performed within our mirrored poi spinning circle. Also look for the debut of Salon Soleil on wheels with this year's new Buddhavehicle, bringing you a special delivery of enlightenment.

Whether your mind is most alert by day or by night, whether you prefer the intimate company of a single confidant or crave some heavy inter-groupulation, Salon Soleil offers a space to enhance your Burning Man experience.

Since our first year as a theme camp, Salon Soleil has relied on a solar panel for all our energy needs. One of our founding members works professionally for an energy advocacy group. Another is a consultant that helps businesses buy green products and one of the original members of the Greening Man Committee. We will draw on their knowledge this year to green our camp as much as possible, to again use the solar panel for our camp's power, and also to hopefully use the same power to offer a free battery recharging service to the Burning Man community.
