Burning Man 2020 (virtual event)

Burning Man 2020 was a unique, virtual version of the annual desert festival, held online due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Traditionally, Burning Man is a week-long gathering in Nevada's Black Rock Desert, emphasizing art, community, and self-expression. The virtual event aimed to preserve these values by hosting digital art installations, performances, and interactive activities accessible from anywhere. Participants connected through online platforms, creating a sense of shared experience despite physical separation. This adaptation allowed the Burning Man community to maintain its creative spirit and cultural exchange while prioritizing safety during a global health crisis.
