MORE Chaos at Burning Man! Torrential Rains Turn Playa Into Mud Pit - 70,000 Stranded

Disaster Weather

What began with a sandstorm tearing apart camps and art quickly spiraled into something even worse. Heavy rains turned the Nevada playa into a seven-mile-wide mud pit, swallowing bikes, stranding vehicles, and forcing gates to close once again. One man was airlifted after a suspected electrocution in the flooded desert, while thousands more struggled through the bone-chilling nights, abandoned bicycles, and mud-soaked shelters. With flights grounded, cars stuck axle-deep, and festivalgoers posting desperate updates, Burning Man 2025 is being called one of the most miserable editions in its history.
