THE BIG BOND ETHOS 

At Big Bond, we gather under desert skies to connect—with music, with each other, and with the moment. Our ethos is a living pulse, made up of the values that guide how we show up and how we share this experience. These aren’t rules. They’re reminders of what makes the bond between us strong.

ACCOUNTABILITY

Out here, we take care of ourselves and each other. Being prepared means showing up ready, mentally and physically, for whatever the desert throws our way. We pack smart, plan ahead, and take ownership of our impact. Accountability is freedom—it means no one has to carry your weight but you.

​​

AUTHENTIC EXPRESSION

Desert nights invite full expression—loud, quiet, colorful, weird, or wild. Big Bond is a space to drop the mask and be yourself, fully and freely. Expression is sacred, as long as it honors the freedom and safety of others. Be bold. Be kind. Be real.

​

INCLUSION

Everyone belongs here. Whether you roll in solo, with friends, or find your crew on the dance floor, this community thrives on connection. We go out of our way to make the stranger feel seen, to offer a hand, a smile, or a spark of conversation. That’s the bond we’re here to build.

LEAVE NO TRACE

The desert gives us her beauty, we return the favor by leaving no trace behind. Pack it in and pack it out, every last thing. If it wasn’t here when you arrived, it shouldn’t be here when you leave. Wind gusts can carry away more than you think, so keep your setup secure and skip the glitter or feathers. When in doubt, pick it up, even if it’s not yours.

LIFE IS NOW

Big Bond, like life, is fleeting—here for a moment, then gone. So we lean all the way in. We dance through dust, laugh under stars, and let go of everything that keeps us from being fully present. No past, no future. Just the hum of the music and the heartbeat of the desert. Life is now. Let’s live it.
