Tickets!
- March 16th, 2009

Ticket sales for Lakes of Fire 2010 (A Spaced Oddity) have closed! If you were unable to get tickets for whatever reason, we at Lakes of Fire suggest you plug in to your local Burning Man community and see if anyone has extras available. Peoples’ plans change and there is every reason to believe that someone in your neighborhood may wish to unload a ticket they purchased. Tickets were sold for both $35 and $40, so if someone is asking for more than that, find out why to your satisfaction!
What What Y’all?!?
Great Lakes Experimental Arts, Inc. is beyond thrilled to announce that we have sold 995 tickets – just 5 short of total capacity!
Lakes of Fire 2010 (A Spaced Oddity) opens its doors at 12:00 noon E.S.T. on Thursday, June 24th, 2010. The doors close at 6:00 P.M. on Saturday, June 26th, and the event continues until 4:00 P.M. on June 27th. But beware! There are no ticket sales at the gate whatsoever . . . as in zero. Sorry to break it to you, but ticket sales on line are now closed.
Ticket prices for Lakes of Fire 2010 (A Spaced Oddity) were the same as they were for your inaugural 2009 event. We accomplish this by enacting a 100% volunteer-run event. “http://www.lakesoffire.org/volunteer-ipate/”

Hosted at the Willow Ranch Arts and Events Center in rural Lacota, Michigan, USA, Lakes of Fire is a collaborative celebration of art, fire, music, and friendship. Lakes of Fire 2010: A Spaced Oddity will be for you, and by you. Like last year, you’ll enjoy outdoor camping, both in theme camps and in open camping settings; music, a glorious effigy, large and small scale art (both fiery and otherwise), a carnival atmosphere, and all of the creative energy and wild spirit that you and hundreds of your closest friends from around the Great Lakes (and the world) can bring! Envision the Great Lakes version of Black Rock City. Lakes of Fire will be smaller than Burning Man, more accessible, and with rolling hills, forests, and fields instead of open playa. You won’t get dust storms or temperature swings. But you’ll surely enjoy the mosquitoes, rain, and toxicodendrons-radicans.
You’ll need to purchase a ticket on-line to enter Lakes of Fire. No ticket? No Entry. No exceptions. We’re sorry. Ticket sales are now closed.
There will be absolutely no ticket sales at the gate. Do not show up to Lakes of Fire expecting to pay cash.

PS: More useful information is below!
You must have a valid ID to enter Lakes of Fire. Participants under 18 years old must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.
You must be 21+ to drink alcohol at Lakes Of Fire. Every participant at Lakes of Fire will receive a wristband identifying them as either over or under 21. Your wristband proves that you’re a participant of Lakes of Fire, so please keep your wristband on throughout the weekend. Failure to wear your wristband may result in your removal from Lakes of Fire, and thus, way less of a good time.
We understand the need for some participants to leave Lakes of Fire for provisions, hotel access, and emergencies. We ask that everyone limit or eliminate the need to exit and re-enter by planning ahead. Carpooling is encouraged. Upon exiting, you must notify the gate staff and sign out. You must also keep your wristband on, and be sure to present it to the gate staff upon re-entry. Without strict adherence to this policy, we cannot guarantee your re-entry to Lakes of Fire. Please be nice to the gate staff. They work very hard to accommodate your needs.
Lakes of Fire’s site is private property owned and operated by our friend and trusted partner. We insist that you comply with all state and local laws, and any reasonable request that our organizers, our host or his associates make of you.
Sorry puppies! There are no pets allowed at Lakes of Fire.

Michaele and other artcar/mutant vehicle owners,
Yes artcars/mutant vehicles are welcome. Our guidelines are very similar to those for MVs on the playa. The exception is there isn’t an application process. We do ask that you register your artcar at the greeter’s station. They will have some paperwork for you and a license sticker to place on your vehicle. They will give you a map with the approved areas you can drive on the event grounds. It is limited but does offer some ability to cruise from area to area.
The greeters will also have the final say of what is and isn’t an artcar/mutant vehicle. Basically it needs to be mutant or art as a whole. Not art on top of a normal vehicle. A good rule of thumb is when you look at it and the first thing you notice is something other than a car body then it would be accepted. If art is secondary then it’s probably best parked at your camp.
Just like on the playa, there are rules applied to the priviledge of driving an artcar/MV around the event. Pedestrians, bicycles and stationary objects have the right of way and need to be yielded to. Music needs to be down in quiet areas. Music also must adhere to the same conditions as theme camps. 5mph is MAX speed. We actually perfer slower as this is such a small space compared to the playa. No driving under the influence. Owner is fully responsible for the vehicle regardless of who is actually operating it.
I’m looking forward to seeing more rolling art at LoF. I’m also anxious to know what’s coming and more than willing to help MV owners prepare for the environment LoF is held at. So please feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you may have if only to give me a heads up that your bringing an artcar/MV.

Hello! I am also looking for 2 tickets for the Willow Ranch in Michigan. If you have any extra, or your plans have changed, please contact me at bubulina1984@yahoo.com Thank you! Ioana
I have an extra tix to sell ($40). Need to ask the powers that be if the tix can be left for the buyer at the gate, like Will Call at BM? Getting too close to use USPS. Also, will the buyer need anything else for proof of purchase, since the printout has my name etc…..Just want to make sure whoever buys my tix will have a flawless entrance to this marvelous event
Tickets are not name-specific. As long as the bar-code is on them there should be no trouble!!
I have 1 extra ticket available. First come first serve, send me an email at Peabo_1@Hotmail.com

Regarding ticket resales:
You can send the buyer your ticket as a PDF or a word doc that shows the bar code, waiver etc. As long as they are the only person who brings that printout to the gate all will be well.
Thanks
