Public Campfires

A Public Campfire is an open room where anyone can join and speak freely.

How it works

  • Layout: Campfire — all participants arranged in a circle
  • Access: Open to anyone
  • Size: Open (when full, new arrivals join a queue)
  • Monetized: No
  • Recordable: No — Public Campfires are never recorded by Aria

Who it's for

Public Campfires are great for casual hangouts, open community discussions, and conversations where everyone should be able to participate.

Creating a Public Campfire

  1. Tap the Go Live button
  2. Select Public Campfire
  3. Add a title and optional topic
  4. Tap Go Live

Your campfire will appear on Discover for anyone to find and join.

Queue system

When a campfire is full, additional people who want to join are placed in a queue. As participants leave, the next person in the queue is admitted automatically.

Inside the campfire

Everyone can speak freely. The conversation flows naturally — no hand-raising needed.
