The Burning Man Festival is an annual event held in the Black Rock Desert of Nevada. It typically takes place in late August to early September and attracts tens of thousands of participants. The festival is known for its unique art installations, community-driven activities, and a temporary city built in the desert, where attendees express themselves freely. At the heart of the festival is the burning of a large wooden effigy, known as the Man, which symbolizes self-expression and communal effort. The event promotes principles such as radical inclusion, self-reliance, and gifting, creating a vibrant and immersive experience for all who attend.
