About Burning Man Festival

Trying to explain what Burning Man is to someone who has never been to the event is a bit like trying to explain what a particular color looks like to someone who is blind. In this section you will find the peripheral definitions of what the event is as a whole, but to truly understand this event, one must participate. This site serves to try to paint a picture of the Burning Man experience to those who are new to the project, as well as to give those participants looking to keep the fire burning in their daily lives an environment in which to connect to their fellow community members.

It is always through the week before Labor Day. The Man burns on Saturday night before Labor Day.

Burning Man Festival Directions

On the Playa (miles of perfectly flat hard-pack alkali earth--not a blade of grass to be seen) of the Black Rock Desert, about 90 miles north of Reno. Nearest permanent community is Gerlach, NV.
