Help Keep the Disco Space Shuttle Soaring in 2024

It's hard to believe that Burning Man 2024 is almost here. We are working hard to get the Disco Space Shuttle ready for more magical moments on the playa this year. But we need your help to make it happen.

Over the years, our Disco Space Shuttle art car and camp have become beacons of love, joy, and positive energy. We've danced together, shared beautiful moments, and built a vibrant community that radiates with warmth and acceptance. Now, we're reaching out to everyone who has experienced the magic of the Disco Space Shuttle art car, our camp, or danced at our events in San Francisco. We need your support to continue creating extraordinary experiences for you and more people to enjoy.

We hunkered down during three pandemic years without fundraisers or dues. Covid took away our gatherings and fundraisers but not our bills. The last few years have been tough as we try to get ahead of our mounting bills and as a result, the Disco Space Shuttle is under financial duress. We believe in the resilience of our community to come together to ensure we can continue bringing the shuttle to the playa.

Here's how you can help us keep the Disco Space Shuttle soaring:

1. Make a donation: Make a contribution of any amount. Your generosity will directly support the art car's maintenance, storage and camp infrastructure required to continue creating captivating experiences on playa.

2. Share the love: Spread the word about our fundraising campaign by sharing the link with your friends, fellow Burners, and anyone who has felt the love and joy of our community. Together, we can reach a broader audience and inspire others to contribute.

3. Share your memories: After you donate, in the comments we'd love to hear about your magic moments on the Disco Space Shuttle art car or at our camp. Share your stories, photos, and videos on social media using the hashtag #DiscoSpaceShuttle. Let's create a wave of nostalgia and excitement that will ignite support for our cause.

Where the Money Goes

We spend around $40,000 annually, and this includes things like truck maintenance, sound system repair and maintenance (the playa is hard on speakers), insurance, and storage which is harder to find than you’d think - even collapsed, the shuttle clocks in at over 13’. (13'x40').

The 20k will go towards:

Truck maintenance and repairs

Sound system repairs & replacement

Towing art car to and from playa

Thank you for paying it forward and helping the DSS to liftoff and spread magic to the masses this year! We cannot do it without you!
