Light Up Your Transportation
For fun and safety add lights to your mode of transportation to your Burner transportation. Bikes are an obvious favorite, but you may decide to register a Mutant Vehicle with the event and light that baby up! Battery Powered lights are an easy option for going simple. Rope lights and flex strip lighting is a better option if you have a large area to cover and want to make a big impact. Using rope light mounting clips you can attach rope lights to most surfaces.

Sculptures and Art Installations
Lights allow bold sculptures erected on the Playa to carry on their visual beauty on into the night. Rope lighting and flex strip can illuminate any structure using mounting clips.

Illuminated Attire
Battery powered LED micro lights can be easily sewn into any outfit or costume and are lightweight and do not heat up. Add battery operated lights to flower crowns, hats, accessories, shoes, tutus, or even wigs and hair.
