Black Rock City Shabbat

Black Rock City Shabbat is a massive, inclusive Shabbat celebration at the Burning Man festival, typically hosted by collaborating camps It features ecstatic prayer, music, dance, and a community dinner for over 1,000 attendees, often held in Deep Playa

The Experience: Founded by Milk + Honey in 2008, the event blends Jewish tradition with Burning Man’s, providing a refuge of song, meditation, and ritual

Inclusivity: All faiths, backgrounds, and burners are welcome to attend this community-driven, "radical Shabbat" experience

Preparation: Participants are often encouraged to wear white/gold, bring their own bowl and utensils, and arrive early for a pre-Shabbat happy hour

Community Support: The event is volunteer-run and relies on donations for food (challah, soup) and logistics
