Playa Info / Lost and Found

Are you great at trivia? Consider yourself an ‘Infomaniac’? Come be a know-it-all at Playa Info, and get all the insider info on all things Black Rock City under our shade in the city center at Esplanade and 5:45! At Playa Info, we handle all sorts of critical stuff that helps make our home in the desert run smoothly, and help educate and advance the principles and culture of the Burning Man project. 

Playa Info is a great place to meet Burners from all over the world. We are Black Rock City’s only official Lost & Found service and Locksmith/Tow operation. Our amazing digital directory helps people find camps and events, burners find other burners, riders find ride-shares, and people find lost stuff. On our bulletin boards you’ll find event lists including The Rockstar Librarian Music Guide, the WhatWhereWhen Guide, and more! 

We have gigs for all kinds of folks – whether you’re uber-experienced and want to answer questions and provide information/directions as one of our famous Oracles or do the same thing on-the-move as a Playa Info Ambassador, or have fewer years of BRC time under your belt and want to wrangle lines (or something in between)! If your plans involve coming early or staying late, we always need extra hands for build and especially for strike/restoration. We have a place for you at Playa Info.

Playa Info is open daily during the event from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. and also some evening hours mid-week. Shifts with Playa Info are 5 hours long and feature breaks and snacks and shade and most importantly, a great vibe in the center of the action! 

We’d love to have you join our team, please fill out a volunteer information form and select Playa Info as your area of interest. NOTE: you’ll need to create–and be signed into–a Burner Profile in order to proceed.

If you need more information, send an email to playainfo@burningman.org 

Volunteers are what make BRC great – hop aboard the train…we can’t wait to meet you!
