About Embers

From Flagstaff

Embers

Our Desert Oasis Bar and Lounge offers craft cocktails alongside our popular self-postcard station, where participants write messages to their future selves that we mail before ticket sales as reminders of playa magic. Join us for daily morning yoga sessions, smutty poetry readings, and UV paint dance parties under our powerful blacklight system. Stop by our Playa Confessional booth to record your deepest burn revelations, then return for Absolution Happy Hour where we broadcast the previous day's confessions while serving themed forgiveness cocktails. NEW THIS YEAR come for the drinks stay for the hotdog glory hole, you know you're curious...
