OVERVIEW

Join Disorient for year 13 of our annual journey of deep chilling, off-the-grid futurist relaxation. Country Club is a lake and lush green woodland oasis where blissful self-reliance meets massive multiplayer techno and technology participation. We invite you to roam the wild forest adventuring in constantly shifting blank canvas of music, art, and performance. Country Club is a fundraiser organized by an all volunteer team. All profits are used for Disorient art creations at Burning Man.

2025 THEME

Disorient Country Club 2025 Theme: Materials of Intrigue
For this experience, we aspire to the formation of new, collective core memories.

Primal ideas executed with refined style will allow us to explore the infinite dilation of the current moment, fabric extravaganzas, overhanging crystalline substructures that stimulate psychosomaticism, romantic yet awakened networks of emergent thought, symbiotic flames that cast everlasting illumination, labyrinthine geometric tesselations ... wrapped in microbiomes of emotion.

OUR ART + YOUR ART

Disorient Country Club is an ephemeral dream that exists for one weekend only. Discover an ever growing and morphing participant-generated weekend of art, theme camps, art cars, art boats, and electronic and live music. Bring what you love! Join us with your creative output and share it in the beautiful tapestry woven wildly in our green forest hideaway.

DISORIENT PLASTIC RECYCLING

We are recycling plastic on site at CCXiii.

After all these years, words and good intents, we are still in what feels like the Stone Age of plastic recycling. A long-term solution demands that we break the table-to-landfill cycle and weave plastic recycling deep into our lives by turning it into a practice, a ritual. Located at Container Camp.

G.Y.S.T.

G&T or John Dalys. Have a Cocktail in the evening shade with us, G.Y.S.T. - Your friends from ROC

LIZARD LOUNGE

"Music, beer, entertainment and humanity. Shade of house and techno"

SWEAT AND SALO - BANYA TIME

Comrade! Step into our Ex-Soviet dreamscape—where the vodka flows, the Eastern European beers are cold, and the snacks are as strange as they are delicious. Think black bread, salo, smoked fish, and other funky bites pulled straight from an ’80s Eastern Bloc bash. Come have an experience!!

Throw on your finest velour track suits, your animal print jumpsuits, your best party spirit and let’s squat Together! Bring your bathing suit (or not!) and get in the banya. Afterwards grab a cocktail an savor a salty snack while the soundtrack slaps. Come with Na Zdarovya!

THE BOOGIE DOWN LOUNGE

Introducing the “BOOGIE DOWN LOUNGE” a Bedouin-inspired chill experience.

We’ve all been there. Feeling overwhelmed, needing a place to re-center, a place to take a breath. We welcome you to our space to have some cucumber water or a chai while listening to soothing melodic international-inspired music at the BOOGIE DOWN LOUNGE.

Under a tent in the woods, find comfort with soft pillows, comfy blankets, chill aromas, and soft lighting. Find your inner peace or just take a respite before getting back to the party. We are your hosts and welcome you to join us in this adult space.

So welcome to the BOOGIE DOWN LOUNGE, we ask you kindly remove your shoes and be mindful of the other guests. As this is a chill spot we also ask that you keep it to a whisper. Help yourself to the refreshments available. Please take with you what you bring in.

THIS MUST BE THE PLACE

Welcome home. This Must Be The Place is a portal disguised as a camp, nestled between the ordinary and the magical. We’re a crew of dreamers, dancers, builders, and late-night philosophers who’ve come together to create a cozy, vibrant haven at the Country Club. Our camp is about grounding in the now—through connection, joy, and just the right amount of weird.

By day, find shade, chill beats, massage stations and restorative elixirs at our shady chill space, where strangers become family. When night falls… well, that’s when the magic really starts. Expect spontaneous dance parties, storytelling under the stars, and interactive art installations that ask the big questions (and answer them with glitter).

We’re fully fueled by love, intention, and sensation. Whether you're stopping by for a moment or moving in for a while—if you feel it, then yes... This Must Be The Place.

Swanning Around…

Sidney Oolongo
Swans! That's it, just swans; in the lake; sometimes arbitrarily around the grounds. Not live animals, of course! Large inflated pool floats fashioned to resemble the quintessential white swan.

Reflective Art Gallery

Woodlands Path
Walk along a pitch black path until you get to a viewing stand, where flashlights are dangling, waiting for you to shine them into the darkness. Instantly a intensely bright gallery of art pops up, reflecting beautiful mandala and nature scenes.

NOW*HERE zONE

Heather Honey
the "NOW*HERE zONE" is an interactive art exchange treasure box nestled in the woods inviting participants to give and receive materials of intrigue in the form of art, words, objects—blurring the boundaries of time. Each exchange links past creators with future recipients, forming a collective present. Please accept our gifts as a reminder of the NOW and our interconnectedness. Be here now and find the present in the presence. This evolving space is a meditation on presence, impermanence, and the interconnected nature of time. It reminds us that everything that has ever been and will ever be already exists—right here, in this moment. In the act of exchange, we step into the eternal now—into the nowhere, which is everywhere: NOW HERE

GENERAL INFO

There is no vending at Country Club, and no vending is allowed. Bring everything you need for survival and

well-being including shade, food and water. There are no showers on site, feel free to bring your solar shower.

You may bring your pets but please be mindful of them, as there are coyotes in the area. Most of the camping site is

in the woods.

Country Club is minimally RV friendly. Limited number of RV passes available. The site does not offer RV

hookups.

This is a LEAVE NO TRACE event. This means, leave the place you visit the same or better than you found it. Bring

trash bags, and take your trash with you when you leave.

All children will require a ticket.

Disorient is a volunteer-run art collective.

Disorient has very few rules, but two require declaration and elaboration:

1. Respect personal boundaries.
2. Take responsibility for your own experience.
The interplay of these two rules forms a social contract that makes our events safe places to explore your own boundaries while encouraging respect for each other. Talk to those around you about anything that makes you uncomfortable.
