Burning Man

Burning Man is an annual event in the Nevada desert that is a week-long celebration of community, art, and radical self-expression. It takes place in Black Rock City, a temporary city built by participants, and culminates in the ceremonial burning of a large wooden effigy called “The Man”. Attendees, known as “Burners,” create an interactive experience based on principles of gifting, decommodification, radical self-reliance, and leaving no trace.
