Description
Help build the braziers (metal baskets on the river) that will set the city alight at sunset. You will get the chance to hop aboard a WaterFire wood boat and help artistically construct the braziers. You will use cardboard, newspaper, and other fire-fuse materials in the center of the brazier and build the pyre of firewood. After all the braziers on the river are built, you will help reload firewood into the six wood boats for the evening feeds. Afterwards, enjoy complimentary lunch with your crew and the WaterFire staff!
