Burning Man 2026 – Art, Freedom, and Dust
From August 30 to September 7, 2026, Black Rock City in Nevada will once again rise from the desert floor. But Burning Man isn’t just a festival—it’s a temporary city, a social experiment, and a spiritual playground built entirely by its citizens. Every year, tens of thousands of Burners co-create an otherworldly experience rooted in radical self-expression, creativity, and community.
The Playa—the dry, cracked desert where it all takes place—is a scene like no other. Think fire-breathing dragons, glowing art cars, giant interactive sculptures, and wild theme camps offering everything from coconut vegan ice cream to guided meditation inside a psychedelic dome. There’s no lineup or schedule here: what happens is what participants bring to life. If you’re ready to give more than you take, you’ll be welcomed with open (dust-covered) arms.
Curated Experiences
- Watch the Man burn on Saturday and the Temple burn on Sunday—two powerful and emotional rituals
- Get lost among hundreds of large-scale art installations scattered across the desert
- Join a theme camp or discover spontaneous activities, from body painting to philosophy workshops
- Explore over 2,000 free classes, ranging from tantric massage to DIY robotics
- Ride a mutant vehicle or explore the Playa by bike under the stars
