Black Rock Desert in Nevada is known as "The Playa" to those who attend events here. Probably the most popular annual event is the Burning Man festival, which has been growing exponentially in participation and attendance in the last two decades. There are also rocket propelled car exhibitions and other special events that take place here, so get your Burning Man tickets as soon as possible.
Most travelers passing through Nevada might grab Grand Sierra Theatre tickets to catch a concert for entertainment. But the folks heading out over the sands aren't looking for your usual entertainment experience. One of the most intriguing annual events in the United States is the Burning Man Festival, which takes place in the Black Rock Desert in the days leading up to Labor Day. The finale is the torching of a giant effigy of a man, but this is only one of the crazy things that goes on during this multiple-day extravaganza.
The Black Rock Desert is famous for its distinctive geological phenomena, including the namesake black rocks, the many hot springs and geysers and the fact that it is considered to be one of the flattest places on earth. Since there are no formal buildings, and for most events any structures will be temporary.
Let's be honest - you'd have to be crazy to be looking at the schedule of upcoming events for a middle-of-nowhere spot like the Black Rock Desert. Of course, those who head out to Burning Man each year pride themselves in thinking a little differently than the norm. Check StubHub for Burning Man Festival tickets every year.
