PREPARATION
Getting ready for Burning Man is half the fun. Preparing for building, creating art projects, and getting funky gear together is a blast, as we all know. The more logistical side of preparing for the event can be just as creative, but there's a lot of information to familiarize yourself with first. Our Survival Guide is new each year, and is mandatory reading for every Burning Man participant. We also have a world of recommended reading that will help make your Burning Man experience the best it can be. Make like a Scout ... be prepared!

Burning Man is an exercise in radical self-reliance. Don't ruin your experience, and that of others, by making yourself a burden on our community due to lack of planning. A little forethought goes a long way!
