Coracle 2026: Cosmic Flotilla

This year's theme is Cosmic Flotilla. A flotilla is a fleet of small ships or boats. It typically refers to a subdivision of a larger independent group of small vessels traveling together for safety, social, or recreational purposes.

This year we are the flotilla community.

The flotilla community, where everything is temporary. We are moving together with shared interest through something vast.​ Weave what you can. Lash it tight. Trust the knot. If woven tight enough, anything can float.

Cosmic scale, collective movement. ​ The fire is your star.​ With the lighthouse to guide us, we are a cosmic flotilla.​

Lash it, launch it, let it burn. ​ Navigate by what burns.​ The voyage ends by becoming light.​

Every piece of this event is woven. The art is woven. The community is woven. The schedule, the camps, the fire circles, the late night conversations you haven't had yet.​ We build it together. We sail toward it together. We release it together. You can't weave with one thread. The cosmic loom is always in motion.

Every basket begins with a single strand. Every forest begins with a single seed. Every burn begins with you.

Guided by the 10 principles of Burning Man, Coracle celebrates art, community, play and expression. Children of all ages are welcome. There is no vending of any kind at Coracle, there are no commercial sponsorships, transactions, or advertising. You must bring everything you need to survive and thrive in early November elements (cold, rain, sunshine). All offerings by participants are offered as a gift, and our temporary celebration thrives on acts of gift-giving, with no expectation of return.

Everyone is invited to help create the weekend. Coracle is an entirely volunteer-produced love offering.

We strive to leave the venue even more beautiful than we found it. Each participant is expected to remove all trash, camping gear, and anything else brought for the weekend. We leave no trace of our presence after the weekend is over.

The word Coracle means a small round boat woven together. We communally weave a weekend of celebration, holding everyone's gifts. You are invited!
