About Burning Man

Burning Man is a temporary city of 80,000+ people built in the Nevada desert, dedicated to art, community, and radical self-reliance. The extreme environment—alkaline dust, temperature swings, and zero infrastructure—makes RV accommodations both desirable and challenging. Proper preparation is essential, and RV fleets must be specifically configured for playa conditions.

Why RV Fleets for Burning Man?

However, the playa dust is corrosive and penetrating, and temperatures range from over 100°F during the day to near-freezing at night. Properly prepared RVs are essential for the Burning Man experience.
