Welcome to HOTD!

HOTD is the longest running bar and stage on the playa. We give you passable drinks, raw music, and the most charming collection of broke ass shit you’ll ever find.

 We’re proud to be winner of the Award of Excellence for the best bar on the playa in 2016, 2017, 2018, and 2019, 2022, and 2023. It has definitely gone to our heads.

We’re looking for your help to keep HOTD a HOT MESS.  We love donations. If you’ve loved HOTD and you want to help us keep paying it forward, give a little and share it on. No one has to give a lot, if everyone gives a little. And if you really love us, you can always ask to join. We’re selective, but we always love good people.

We’re looking forward to 2024!

Below is a group photo of some of out campers from 2018.  Running a camp is a group effort and every single person helps in their own way — tending bar, getting ice, chatting with people, setting up, tearing down, or just being great company. We’re a community. It’s what we do.

Oh and we also get people drunk and make them do stupid shit. First place, bitches.

Let’s just say I hope they wash the bar off every once in a while.
