The usually barren Black Rock Desert in Nevada, USA, comes alive during the period before Labor Day in the first week of September each year, as thousands of participants from around the world flock to attend the Burning Man festival, where people create a city that never sleeps with wildly avant-garde art and music.

The Burning Man festival is an incredibly rich experience, featuring endless large and novel installations, all-night parties, flying shaped kites, and visitors dressed in outlandish costumes, creating what seems like an avant-garde fashion show. This whimsical festival is described by many participants as a social experiment for idealists or a wild celebration for libertarians.
