There's a celebration, a festival, or a sort of party going on, and what's a better way to have fun than making a bonfire and dancing around it? Fire symbolizes many things, of which comfort, passion and love are three of them. Thus, a bonfire creates a romantic and intimate atmosphere that allows couples to form; love confessions to be made; or for friends to get even closer in this group quality time through dancing. Thus, it may involve a Campfire Character Exploration. While it doesn't necessarily have to be a romantic scene, it's often meant for romance to bloom and Ship Tease purposes. Sometimes, the dance is referred to as a folk dance, and it can be performed as a religious ritual or a tradition from a specific culture. In older, more offensive depictions, the exotic tribe from the foreign, unexplored land gets spied on by the Mighty Whitey protagonist who would be shown doing an ecstatic dance 'round a bonfire. If this happens in Japanese media, expect it to take place in a School Festival, or during a Festival Episode. And, of course, this might happen in a Camping Episode, too. See Break-Up Bonfire, which is about someone burning the stuff their ex-partner left behind. Not to be confused with Bonfire Night, which are various annual celebrations that include bonfires and fireworks held in the UK and other commonwealth nations but don't necessarily involve dancing. |

Shown briefly in the anime adaptation of A Certain Magical Index, where Touma recalls one of his unlucky moments during the Daihasei Festival, where he was forced to partner with a blushing Mikoto for the folk dance around the bonfire before Kuroko dropkicks him. The scene is further expanded in the spinoff A Certain Scientific Railgun, where it was revealed that Saten had set Touma and Mikoto up. Saten first asked Touma for a dance around the bonfire as a way for him to return the favor of borrowing her lucky charm. She then pretends to be hurt and makes a reluctant Mikoto dance with him instead. The two share a sweet moment, until Kuroko ruins it. | |

The Simpsons: In "So It's Come to This: A Simpsons Clip Show", Lisa (and then Homer) explain the origin of April Fool's day as a pagan holiday. In the following shot, a tribal version of the Simpsons first dances around an idol on fire and then (after being pranked by a pioneer version of the Flanders) around their sacrificial victims. | |

Happens twice in Anne with an E in season 3: Episode 5: Anne and her friends agree to meet up at night to do their own little Beltane celebration. They light a bonfire and perform a ritual, declaring that women are powerful, their bodies belong to them only, and that they'll choose whom to love and show the door to any man belittling them one by one, with the last part said in unison. They then proceed to dance and scream in extreme joy. When Ruby gets emotional like always, she confesses that she loves being a woman. Episode 8: Anne's classmates celebrate and play around at the Ruins after they finish their exams. When Gilbert comes to the Ruins, he sees Anne and is left speechless by her beauty as he watches her dance next to the campfire in slow motion. |

In Final Fantasy XIV, the Heavensward Allied Tribe quests end with the Warrior of Light, Vath Deftarm, Master Mogzin, and Linu Vali dancing the new Moonlift Dance around a campfire at Ok' Gundu Nakki. The dance is a hybrid of the Moogle's and Vanu Vanu's cultural dances and serves as a testament to the new friendship between the Vath, the Mogmenders, and the Gundu tribe. | |

In To Shape a Dragon's Breath on Valkyrjafax, the staff of maids and dragonhall workers hold their own celebration on the grounds around a bonfire with casual, animated dances and sharp drinks (in contrast to the formal, fancy dress ball for students and higher staff). Anequs and Theod (after making an obligatory appearance and interactions at the formal ball for their social status) slip off to spend time there for the rest of the night, with Theod saying that last year he didn't bother with the formal ball at all. | |

This becomes a plot point in the culture festival arc of Kaguya-sama: Love Is War. Iino insists on having a large campfire after it was included in the suggestions box, and later on, Kaguya gets to light it. It eventually turns out that Shirogane was the one who requested it, having planned on using the updraft from the flames along with hundreds of heart-shaped balloons for a Grand Romantic Gesture to Kaguya. Maki then enviously watches the campus couples as they dance around the bonfire, wishing they'd get burned. Kashiwagi asks her to dance together, saying she likes Maki more than her own boyfriend. | |

In Far Cry 6, the Montero Family celebrates like this after successfully liberating their region of Yara from Jose Castillo, with Dani, Clara, and Camila sharing drinks atop a tower, whilst Philly dances round the fire in his pants. Later on in the game, Clara phones Anton Castillo himself, and manages to tick him off after he asks whether she plans to celebrate overthrowing him like this, in a way that perfectly fits his cynical character. | |

The Quintessential Quintuplets: The cast was preparing for the campfire for the school camping trip and discussing a legend about how the partners dancing at the campfire would end up together forever, and it seems like Fuutarou would be dancing with Miku. Later on, when he gets locked in a room with Ichika, he lights a small campfire with the wood they have, and Ichika offers to do the dance with him in private. But after learning about the legend and taking Miku's feelings into consideration, Ichika doesn't do it after all. However, the other students all dance together on the last day of camping, and a couple, who much later end up being married, is born. | |
