SURVIVAL

３日間生き抜くために必要なものは自分で持込んで、いつもと違う世界を楽しんで、キレイに片付けて帰る。

３日間だけ架空の街を建設します。そこが普段生活している世界とどう違うのかを描写しているのが先の「１０原則」です。

NO SPECTATOR!

運営側はエンターテイメントを提供しない。参加者各自が自発的に表現し、関わりあうプラットフォームを参加者と共に創っていく。

ここでは誰も「お客さん」でも「観客」でもない・・・全員が街を形作るイチ市民です。

New LOCATION

Camping area for about 300 tents.

And a jump ramp for Mortocross Bikes.

Mortocross course leads us to
the maze of bumps, hills and curves.

Pictures don't really show the depth.

But this is the view from a very steep hill.

Phoenix might stand on the top of the hill.

Bumps and hills continue toward the end of the land.
All covered with grass, now.

Parking space is located next to the camping area,

following the narrow trail.

Still covered with grass!!

Mowing camp

Call for volunteers to cut the grass at this new location. Grass cutters will be provided and we will have tons of work of work to do! Join us on the last weekend of July and/or September.

Meet the locals, have great local food, and experience the great nature in Niigata!
