Burning Man, the annual counter-culture festival that in recent years has drawn tens of thousands to the middle of the desert, has kicked off virtually again this year — but that’s reportedly not stopping renegade mega fans from trekking to Nevada’s Black Rock Desert anyway.
The festival organizers announced in April that they were canceling the official 2021 in-person event due to concerns over COVID-19.
The online event kicked off last week with participants using virtual reality headsets to replicate the in-person experience — everything from port-a-potties to hours-long traffic jams — The Wall Street Journal reported.
