What to expect
RiSE has been thoughtful design from start to finish to be a complete experience. The music, art, venue design, and the timing of the Fire and Lantern Ritual have all been designed to resonate with the natural progression of the times of day and movement of the sun, moon and stars. To get the full effect, we recommend arriving between 3:00 - 4:00 pm leaving between 9:00 - 10:00 pm.
The day begins with energetic music, food, drinks, art, and connecting with friends and loved ones. As the sun disappears, we will transition into the Fire and Lantern Ritual. Our host will guide you as you light your torch and lantern in time with the music and natural wonders of the transitioning night.
Villages on the North and South of the venue will include dining tables, sun shades, food trucks, merchandise and an open air market for drinks and snacks.
