“The level of distress that people outside of Burning man seem to think we were in was just not accurate.”
Set in the midst of Nevada’s Black Rock Desert, Burning Man has always represented a test of will—not to mention survival—for its intrepid attendees, but 2023’s iteration of the weeklong arts and music festival was on a whole different level.turned much of Black Rock City into a muddy, slippery, obstacle course-esque nightmare, with nearly all events being canceled on Friday, September 1, and festival-goers forced to find their way home as routes into and out of the area were shut down.
The process of leaving the city—known as the “exodus” in the Burner community—wasn’t that complicated either. By Sunday afternoon, all of the members of my camp had broke the driving ban and fled. Some got stuck mere blocks away in their RVs, others got lucky and wrote. Since I’d decided to honor the driving ban, this made me a “playa orphan,” which meant I needed to find a new camp to wait out the last bit of rain.
Typically Saturday night is when we “burn the man.” It’s a 70,000-person party. Instead, we all stayed in our camps and had 7,000 small parties. And honestly? I preferred it! We have a giant, Axolotl-shaped art car that breathes fire, and a giant healing dome we filled with music. My friend Jake played Motown and R&B, my friends Amy and Andy played an acoustic set, and my friend Lydia did a dance on a stripper pole shaped like a toothbrush.
