Welcome to the Homepage of Shangri-Lawless!

Shangri-Lawless is a Burning Man theme camp founded in 2011, whose members are mostly spread across the grand west, San Diego to San Francisco and beyond.  Our old nemesister camp, The Loose Birds of Domosaurus Roxx, also joined forces with us during our founding year.  

Shangri-Lawless is centered around the fusion of two classicial elements: the mythology of Shangri-La, a supposed lost, paradisical city and the American Old-West era from the 1800's.  We felt this encompassed our personal love for all things mystical, weird, or chaotic, while also giving us a great deal of theme flexibility.  Is our camp a lost paradise for sun-beaten adventurers, or a den of chaos for the wild hearted? Come to investigate for yourself the legends of Shangri-Lawless.

In March 2012, we again joined forces with the prodigy Camp Ego Trip from San Diego, to create a compound village of pure awesome.  With approximately 20,000 sq. ft., unlimited talent and surpreme raging prowess, this year will not likely be forgotten for some time to come.

Camp mottos:

  • "Peace, Love and Anarchy"
  • "Flawless, Lawless and Bra-less"
