Y’all ready to shine? Welcome to Sparkle Saloon.
This year’s Denver DeCOmp theme transforms the Stockyards Event Center into a wild west dreamworld bursting with neon lights, immersive art, and frontier flair. Sparkle Saloon is the perfect place to decompress after Burning Man or to kick off your journey into the burner universe. Whether you're a dusty veteran or a curious first-timer, this hoedown is for you.
Inside, you'll find sound stages thumping with beats from your favorite Burning Man sound camps, interactive workshops to spark your curiosity, and a burlesque show hotter than a desert sunset. Outside, fire art and performances blaze across the plaza, lighting up the night with flames, invention, and spectacle.
Sparkle Saloon isn’t just about shiny costumes and loud music. It’s a world built on the 10 Principles of Burning Man, where radical self-expression, inclusion, participation, and community guide everything we do.
So dust off your boots, bring your brightest spirit, and join us for a night of connection, creativity, and pure Colorado magic.
