10% of profits of all sales will be donated to Hyper Fusion for two different causes:
1) The Hyper Fusion #FuseTheCommunity Initiative to support their annual Burnet ISD Technology Scholarship Program. We believe in the importance of advancing the education of students who are the future of our community.
2) We will also be using the profits from this event to solve the lack of broadband speeds and reasonably priced internet all over Central Texas.

Hyper Fusion is the company providing all of our fiber, wifi, and fixed point wireless internet services for our vendors/merchants, and guests at the Burnet County Eclipse Event 2024.

Due to the extreme rarity of this event we have elected to set a portion of our bookings with eBay style auctions.  These auctions have no reserve and also have a "Buy It Now" button to secure that space with a flat rate immediate check out.  Using the "Buy it now" button guarantees the space is yours.  If the listing has received at least one bid, you must enter your bid, and highest bidder will win the space.  All auctions will close on Leap Day, Feb. 29th, 2024.

We offer several payment options depending on where you live.  Please refer below to see available payments options for your location.

  • Credit/Debit Card processed by Stripe
  • Zelle, using your online banking system

Due to the extreme rarity of this event, our cancellation policies on our bookings are going to be EXTREMELY firm with very few exceptions made.

Vendors: Absolutely no refunds for vendor spaces will be given.  A big part of the draw is our creative selection of vendors so its extremely important our vendors do not cancel on us.

Guests: Any guest day pass, or overnight/multi day/entire event accommodation passes will be refundable until December 31st, 2023, however a 15% cancellation fee will apply.  Absolutely no refunds will be given after December 31st, 2024 for cancellations.

Academics: Due to the extreme costs involved with ensuring that high-grade internet is available for every academic, no cancellations will be accepted after October 31st, 2023 as we need to make sure the setup process for these locations has enough time to complete before the event.  A 15% cancellation fee will apply.

Premium Attraction Tickets: There will be no refunds given for any reason on pre-purchased premium attraction tickets.
