(A man ride his scooter at the Burning Man festival near Gerlach, Nev., on Sunday Aug. 28, 2022.)  6     A man rides his scooter at the Burning Man festival near Gerlach, Nev., on Sunday Aug. 28, 2022. AP     “It was an oasis of men! I didn’t mind,” Knight said of her experience, although she said the gender gap wasn’t significantly noticeable to her.But as those men arrived with camera phones, the number of(https://nypost.com/2026/08/15/us-news/burning-man-offers-550-tickets-with-bus-travel-from-reno-san-francisco/) women partying topless has dropped — reported veteran burners on social media.“When did the nudity disappear? … Yes, there were some swingin’ hogs, I saw you, but I would say the amount of female toplessness decreased like 95% from the last time I was there,” lamented one burner on the r/BurningMan subreddit who attended a recent festival after a 10-year hiatus.The burn’s famous Orgy Dome has strict regulations to ward away horny pickup artists, including a “couples and moresomes” entry policy.Burners are also getting wealthier, with half of festival-goers making more than $100,000, compared to just a quarter at that income level in 2015. However, the trend flattens some when adjusted for inflation. (index.html#) (Open a slideshow of all 6 article images.)

AP    Meanwhile, the festival itself has gotten more expensive to attend.“It also can be very cost prohibitive,” said Knight, who spent around $1,000 on supplies and preparation in 2023 — on top of the ticket price, which went up to $775 this year. In addition, burners are charged extra fees to drive a vehicle into Black Rock City.“My first burn in 2005, I was 21. I bought a ticket for $215 … I think I spent $1000 or so all in for that year,” Michael McQuaid lamented on X.  “It sucks that the s–t economy is pricing out so many of the younger, less financially-established burners,” he added.
