The Kazantip Republic is the craziest and liveliest music, dance and party festival in the world. The Kazantip Republic is a non-existent state under the sun on a beach in Popovka, Crimea, Ukraine.

Or in the case of Burning Man - an outdoor campground for old hippies and exhibitionists obsessed with self-expression and fire worship.
