Burning Man is more than a performer—it's a legendary force in the electronic and dance music scene that grew out of a transformative gathering in Black Rock City, Nevada. Founded in 1986 by Larry Harvey, Jerry James, and John Law (Cacophony Society), the event has evolved into a global movement built on the Ten Principles: radical inclusion, gifting, decommodification, radical self-reliance, radical self-expression, communal effort, civic responsibility, leaving no trace, participation, and immediacy. While there are no official headliners at Burning Man, the festival centers around diverse sound camps and collaborative performances that create a unique, immersive experience. This page highlights Burning Man’s biography, notable discography highlights, and upcoming tour information to help you secure your seats and stay connected with all things Burning Man.
