Burning Man is yearly gathering of 50,000 to 70,000 people, many from the San Francisco Bay Area, celebrating life, passion and art during one week in a desolated desert in Nevada.
The event takes place each last week of august in an immense dry alkali lakebed called Black Rock Desert. A temporary city is built where about everything is permitted except violence, money and commerce.
The culmination of the event is the burning of a large human-shape effigy in a giant bonfire, hence the name (Burning Man). The city disappears completely at the end of the week, leaving no trace.
