Do you have any idea how The Burning Man which is now the most iconic festivals in North America, first starts? It happened back in 1986, in San Francisco, when two friends decided to burn an 8-foot statue. 30 years later, this moment has grown into an event which takes over 7 square miles of Nevada’s desert for about 0,000 visitors for them to enjoy music in, create art and roam the land for a week.
The festival is an annual gathering where the community explores various forms of artistic self-expression, created in celebration for the pleasure of all participants. Participation is a key precept for the community – selfless giving of one’s unique talents for the enjoyment of all is encouraged and actively reinforced
