Ouroboros' Burning Down the House

NON-PROFIT FUNDRAISING EVENT

🔥 OUROBOROS: BURNING DOWN THE HOUSE 🔥

Spring Equinox Day Rave • Two Rooms

THE OUROBOROS FOUNDATION - DEDICATED TO FUNDING THE FUTURE OF PSYCHEDLIC RESEARCH

21 March | Basing House | 2pm-9pm
Theme: Rio Carnival Colours & Joy

As the Spring Equinox arrives and the light begins to stretch forward again, we gather for a day of rhythm, colour, and renewal. Burning Down the House is our celebration of the season's potential - a moment to shake off the winter, reconnect with joy, and step into the energy of growth.

This event is rooted in the same spirit that inspires many people to explore psychedelic therapy: the belief that human beings can heal, transform, and expand when they feel safe, connected, and open. While our event is purely a celebration, we honour the broader idea that music, movement, and community can support emotional wellbeing and personal growth in their own powerful ways.

We're drawing inspiration from the vibrancy of Rio Carnival - a tradition built on colour, expression, and collective joy. Think bright fabrics, feathers, florals, glitter, and anything that radiates life. Not a costume, but a celebration of your most expansive self.

What to expect:
• Uplifting music that encourages release, clarity, and presence
• A welcoming crowd that brings warmth, positivity, and openness
• A space to reconnect with yourself and others through movement
• A day centred on joy, expression, and the promise of new beginnings

If you joined us for Eleusis, you'll know the kind of atmosphere we cultivate - inclusive, expressive, and full of heart. Burning Down the House continues that lineage with a focus on renewal, connection, and the shared experience of stepping into spring together.

This is a celebration of what's possible.
A moment to breathe, dance, and grow.
A day to welcome the light.

Tickets are available now.
Bring your brightest colours and join us for the Equinox.

Across two rooms, we're celebrating the full spectrum of UK dance music: deep, rolling house in one room and high‑energy drum & bass in the other. Whether you're a seasoned raver, a curious newcomer, or someone who just wants to feel the bass shake the walls, this is a day built for you.
