Word Play Cafe

Love word games? So do we!

Word Play Cafe is the space at Burning Man (and beyond) dedicated entirely to word games for people to gather, play and learn together.

Play with us at Burning Man!

Burners enjoy solving our custom Burning Man themed crossword puzzle, getting their daily Wordle fix with our analog version, playing a host of custom and popular word games, and attending our special events. We even magically offer a very well known daily crossword puzzle!

Visit us in 2024 – We’re in the BLD village at 6:30 & B!

Play with us in the Default World!

We had so much fun with Word Play Cafe at Burning Man that we’re hosting events in the default world throughout the year in the SF Bay Area. 

Follow us on Facebook to hear about our next event. Or sign up for our announcement email list.
