A Global Movement

Let’s Build a City, Together!
Whether it’s your first, or 21st Burn, there are SO many ways to participate in making Black Rock City happen.

Think Globally, Burn Locally
With Burning Man groups in 36 US states and 34 countries, you don’t have to go to the desert to experience the culture.

Work with Burning Man Project
Always wanted to work for the Man? Burning Man Project is looking for good people to fill seasonal roles in Black Rock City and Gerlach.

Burning Man is Built By You
Burning Man is not something you attend — it’s something you do. Your support for the nonprofit funds Honoraria art, makes Black Rock City tickets accessible to more people, and nurtures a more creative, connected world.

UnSCruz: Absurdia
Join us for the 14th Annual unSCruz — a 4-day, 3-night celebration of fire, art, music, camping, and community from April 30 – May 3, 2026.
unSCruz is a radically inclusive regional Burning Man–inspired gathering, created to be a safe and welcoming space for all. We celebrate diversity in every form and warmly welcome people of all genders, expressions, ages, orientations, races, ethnicities, creeds, faiths (or no faith), and lifestyles.
Our community is built on respect, participation, and care for one another. Hate speech or behavior that demeans, dehumanizes, ridicules, or alienates others will not be tolerated.
Come as you are. Bring your creativity, your kindness, and your spark — and help us co-create the magic of unSCruz.

InterFuse 2026: Biohazard Bloom
In a world ravaged by pollutants, toxins, and waste.. a cataclysm has befallen the earth, but life has not perished; it has mutated.
The wasteland here is not barren, but overflowing with mutated, glowing, and strangely beautiful life that has adapted to harsh conditions.
The familiar landscapes have given way to a vibrant, unsettling ecosystem where the very substances that once threatened existence now fuel a new, bizarre, and beautiful burst of life.
It's a world where radiation has given birth to bioluminescent flora, where scavenged technology has been incorporated into organic forms, and where the "hazard" is also the source of new, vibrant, and unsettling beauty.
Explore the paradox of danger and beauty, decay and rebirth. A moment in time where the "hazard" is intrinsically linked to the "bloom." Discover the radiance in ruin and celebrate the relentless, often grotesque, ingenuity of adaptation.
