"Far from a traditional festival, Burning Man essentially builds a city up from nothing, with attendees being encouraged to give back to the community by way of creating artful experiences that range from wholesome to very NSFW. The events are chronicled in a massive listing on the Burning Man website that compiles hundreds of wacky options for Burners to indulge in."
"While the playa sun is rising, tons of camps will be cooking up breakfast offerings, all free of charge, as nothing on the playa is allowed to be sold (except ice). Naughty-shaped waffles from camp Moon Landing are a risque way to start the day, or a breakfast cereal bar at Center Camp Plaza. If you like your morning meal with a side of disco, the Discotique Pancake Boutique has you covered (and has an open bar to boot)."
"Although Burning Man could be considered something of an endurance test, there's a heavy emphasis on self-care that shows up in the activities. There are tons of sound bath options, ranging from Sonic Beach Bliss to Daily Sound Healing to Immersive Sound Meditation featuring melodic dub music. If you're the type to put things off, well, the Burn is as good a time as any to stop procrastinating via a workshop at the Red Nose District."
Burning Man began as a summer solstice party at San Francisco's Baker Beach in 1986 and has transformed into a 70,000-person event in Nevada's Black Rock Desert. The event essentially builds a temporary city from nothing, encouraging attendees to create artful experiences and give back to the community. A massive online listing compiles hundreds of camp offerings and activities. Camps offer free meals across the playa because commerce is prohibited except for ice. Breakfast options include naughty-shaped waffles at camp Moon Landing, a cereal bar at Center Camp Plaza, the disco-themed Discotique Pancake Boutique, yogurt parfaits from Camp Desert of Eden, and Ukrainian syrnyky from Camp Misto. Self-care features include sound baths and workshops such as those in the Red Nose District, while musical wakeups and afterparty options keep social activity ongoing.
