FAQ’s

What is Burning Man?

Burning Man is a week-long gathering in Nevada's Black Rock Desert that celebrates community, art, and self-expression. The event takes place August 24th to September 1st, 2025.

Why should I join Sockdrawer?

Sockdrawer is still growing and evolving every year. We promote art and music as well as grow lifelong memories and connections.

Our camp is different than others because we focus on the roots of community. Some camps you might feel invisible, or maybe like you don't belong. We try our best to make everyone feel welcome and a part of our family.

We encourage and celebrate each other and all take a part of making the magic happen. We create a platform for artists and enjoy our camp for the love of doing something cool with and for each other. We support our campers and what makes them unique. It's not about being seen, big name lineups, or competing with other camps. It's about us, bringing what we have, and sharing our love for bass music, art, and festival culture.

Community matters to us and we strive to find ways to make it better every year. We value collaboration and want our campers to have a way to promote their own art and feel empowered to add their own contributions. Sockdrawer isn't just a camp - every year it is an evolving art piece, and we are all a different brush.

What is up with the socks?

Sockdrawer is a place where every sock belongs. Maybe it's where you lost your sock, maybe you are looking for your match, maybe you are the stray sock. The Sockdrawer is filled with infinite possibilities and infinite meanings. One thing we know for sure: no sock can resist heavy bass lines and good vibes. We are on a mission to find all of our missing socks, and we need your help!
