      • last days reserved for setting up and breaking down the camp, respectively, the ideal days to host two separate parties should consider several factors:

      1. Adjustment Period: The first couple of days after setup will be a period of adjustment for attendees as they get accustomed to the environment, finalize their setups, and explore. It might be wise to avoid throwing a party right after the build day to allow everyone to settle in.

  • Rest Days: It's also crucial to space out the parties to ensure attendees have time to rest, recuperate, and enjoy other aspects of Burning Man without feeling overwhelmed.

    • First Party: Hosting the first party on Wednesday, August 28. This allows two full days post-arrival for attendees to get acclimated, explore, and hear about your event. Midweek, the energy at the festival is rising, and people are looking to dive into more interactive and engaging experiences. This timing also gives a nice midpoint peak to the festival experience.

    • Second Party: The second party could ideally be on Friday, August 30th because the man burns Saturday. This date is close to the end, allowing for a sort of "grand finale" party where everyone is looking to make the mostBike out of theirGerlach remainingstorage
