The organizers require all festival goers to be in costume, with the idea of creating a full-inmersion effect, making attendees feel like theyre inside a Mad Max-style movie for 5 days. Activities include any number of themed distractions from the real world: live bands, DJs, car cruises, costume contests, a film festival, a post-apocalyptic swimsuit competition, Thunderdome battles, light-hearted role playing challenges like a bounty-hunting game, crafting workshops, free hair and makeup at the event-sponsored beauty salon, fire performers, a 24 hour radio station, post-apocalyptic gladiator fights, an archery range, a casino, and much, much more.
