Charter A Private Jet To Burning Man Festival

ENQUIRE NOW

Burning Man began in 1986, when artist Larry Harvey marked the summer solstice by burning an eight-foot wooden man at Baker Beach in San Francisco. A crowd gathered to watch and the annual fire party continued until police banned it four years later. Burning Man relocated to Black Rock Desert in Nevada, where the ceremony has grown from a huddle on the beach into a week-long festival that draws 70,000 free-spirited revellers every year.

For the uninitiated, Burning Man is largely an “anything goes” event guided by 10 principles that reflect the community’s culture of inclusion, decommodification, free expression and respecting the environment. The leading principle, “Immediate Experience”, is described as seeking to overcome barriers to recognise our inner selves and those around us.

The celebration draws devoted “burners” and newcomers from all walks of life, including an adventurous set of celebrities. Unlike most festivals where attendees are there to watch others perform, everyone at Burning Man is an active participant. Costumes are a near necessity, with an array of flamboyant outfits featuring glitter and extravagant accessories.

One of Burning Man’s principles is to leave no trace, so you’ll need to bring everything you need and take it away with you after the festival ends. Supplies include two gallons of water per day, a bicycle, food, warm clothes for cold nights, string lights and cooking equipment. Needless to say, you won’t be able to fit all that on a commercial flight.

Instead, charter a private jet and land directly in the desert at Black Rock City Airport, which is temporarily set up especially for Burning Man every year. Alternatively, you can fly into Reno-Tahoe International Airport to collect your rental RV, stock up on supplies and make the two-hour drive into the desert.
