The festival is described as the “experimental community” that includes parties, fire performances, costume balls and performance of the passionate dawn dancing. Organizers point out that the visitors will decide themselves, what the Burning Man means to them.

Even on the first day of the festival, the event was by far the most visited in its entire history, as on the first day, 55,000 thousand people came into the desert, which was the peak number of the last year’s event.

For this occasion, the artists made a temporary desert town with 15 streets, a Man Base, a sculpture that represents the entire festival and which is traditionally burned on the last day, which was this year much bigger than usually. The ticket cost 650 dollars, and the money had no value at the festival, as the participants were exchanging the goods and sharing the food. All the visitors of the festival were obliged to observe the 10 principles, as follows: radical inclusion, giving, decommodification, radical self-independence, radical self-support, social work, civil responsibility, no-leaving-traces principle, participation, no-interfering principle.
