Participation Fair Burning Man

We Build it Together — The Burning Man 2026 Participation Fair — Online, April 4

The Zoom meeting link will be added here on April 3.

Seize the day! YOU are invited to the Burning Man 2026 Participation Fair. It’s online, Saturday, April 4 at 10am PT / 1pm ET / 6pm CET. Now marks the moment Burning Man coalesces, kicking off a universe of connection, play, and creativity.

Whatever flavor of Burning Man fun you’re after, the Participation Fair has you covered. There are so many ways to maximize your Burning Man experience and make 2026 the best Burning Man ever, including:

  • Learning how to thrive in the desert, either with a camp or on your own with friends
  • Connecting with an art project to bring it to life
  • Making the rocket go as a team member with Gate, Rangers, DPW, Arctica or another Black Rock City team
  • Finding out how you can bring your art and join the more than 400 pieces coming to the playa

At the Participation Fair you’ll learn about these ways to plug in and get tips from next-gen Burning Man leaders about how you and your friends can help build and create on playa!

You’ll also get updates on April’s Main Sale for BRC tickets, hear from Burning Man Project CEO Marian Goodell, and have the chance to help shape the experience (including lowering Gate wait times). Can’t make it to BRC this year? Stick around for info on how you can bring Burning Man to life in your hometown, all around the world.

We build Burning Man together! Don’t miss being a part of it all.
