Seacompression is the official Burning Man Decompression Regional event for the Pacific Northwest hosted in the heart of Seattle at Fisher Pavilion at the Seattle Center, sponsored by Ignition Northwest.

Every Seacompression boasts a unique theme, and in 2023, we invite you to explore the enigmatic world of “Macabre Magnifique.” This theme embraces the intriguing juxtaposition of the disturbing and the magnificent. It’s a night that promises to blend eerie and impressive elements, offering beautiful art and captivating performances that will leave you in awe.

Seacompression is a playground of creativity. Here, you’ll find an array of art installations, interactive art pieces, and themed camps that challenge your perception and spark your imagination. Multiple music stages, featuring both live performances and DJ sets, will keep the beats alive from 2 PM to 2 AM. Fire performances will light up the night, and participants are encouraged to express themselves through various forms of creative expression.
