Myschievia is a regional burn event that happens every year in early October in North Texas, United States. It was inspired by, and operates similar to the Burning Man festival in Nevada, but is more akin to the Burning Flipside event outside of Austin, Texas.
Myschievia started in 2005. Approximately 200 participants attended at a location about 2 hours west of the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex. For 2006, Myschievia was held in a different location in East Texas, outside a small town called Hughes Springs.
Much like the Burning Man and Burning Flipside events, a theme is chosen each year around which participants can creatively interact. The theme for the first year was "Trial By Fire," an old west courtroom-styled theme. The effigy was a 25-foot tall model of the scales of justice. The theme for 2006 was left open due to the fact that a majority of the event organizers were at Burning Man. The effigy was of the Roman Coliseum.
