How do I find Pangaia?

Finding the correct entrance can be a little tricky. Please DO NOT USE THE ADDRESS ON YOUR TICKET. (The property is huge so the address is imprecise.) Most people can put in these coordinates in Google Maps to get directions to the venue: 32.8899714, -80.1815979. 

However, some phones are not cooperating (you are not going to the Dorchester School District). If that includes you, then use your navigation app of choice to go 1.6 miles West on Hwy. 61 from 4263 Ashley River Rd, Charleston, SC 29414 (this is from Charleston). 

 

You will see a "Welcome Home" sign. The site is approximately 2 miles down the gravel road. 

Note, there are no ticket sales at the gate so do not come if you do not have a ticket. 

 

Where can I find a map of Pangaia?

A beautiful color rendition is here. A easy print version is here


What do I get for my ticket price?

You get 4 days in an enchanted land called Pangaea where you will find fellow wayfinders who, like you, thought it worth the effort and investment to see what we will create together. Emergence is a nonprofit event organized entirely by volunteers. All proceeds go to cover expenses and back out to the community in the form of art grants, with a bit held back for next year's gathering. 

How do I get a ticket?

Tickets to Emergence 2023 are sold out. You may get lucky on our ticket shuffle post in our Facebook group. 

When is Emergence 2023?

April 20-24, 2023. All participants must be off the property by noon on Monday April 24. 

Does my name on my ID have to match the name on my ticket?

 

No. Possession of a ticket is presumed ownership of a ticket. Please take care when buying tickets from others. All participants must show valid ID showing they're 21 or over. 

What are gate hours?

Gate hours are 10am-10pm Thursday and Friday, 10am-6pm on Saturday.

Where is the event?

Emergence will take place in a 20-acre area within a 6,000-acre private nature preserve on 2 fresh water lakes. It is a truly magical patch of earth 30 minutes from downtown Charleston. You'll get the coordinates when you get your ticket. 

What should I bring?

You'll need to come ready to be radically self-reliant as nothing is bought or sold at a Burn. You need to be ready to camp in a forest with no power or water for the length of your stay. Barring an emergency there are no ins and outs so don't expect to make a grocery run in the middle of your stay. While Emergence is not in the inhospitable Black Rock Desert (where Burning Man takes place) you may find this comprehensive list a good starting point.

 

Fire wood will be provided. Please do not bring fire wood to the venue due to the risk of invasive species hitching a ride. 
 

Also be ready to gift and participate - though your gift need not be a physical thing. The best gifts are often experiences!

I heard Burning Man is a hedonistic rave, is that what I'll find at Emergence?

What you find at Emergence is up to you! The sacred and the profane, the hip and the square, the lusty and the celibate, the clothed and the cloth-less, the introvert and the extrovert, the mystic and the mathematician, the philosopher and the stone - and you! Bring your unique gifts to share and be celebrated. 

What's the deal with RV camping?

RV camping is allowed but there are no hook ups. If you're with a placed camp be sure we know you're bringing an RV so we can do our best to place you in an RV accessible area.

Can I bring my mutant vehicle?
 

So long as it is sufficiently mutated, and you pre-register.
