For those who can’t be on the playa in person, BlackRockCity.org is pleased to offer the Livestream straight from Black Rock City. For more announcements, feedback, and other news follow the #BMwebcast hashtag on the social channel of your choice.
Burning Man Information Radio (94.5 FM) is your nexus for essential information on the playa. Check BMIR for late-breaking event announcements and a melange of music. In the event of an on-site emergency, tune into BMIR for rumor-free updates and advisories to surf the storm to a sane conclusion.
At the Burning Man festival almost every year for the last two decades there has been a symbol, a waypoint, an opportunity: to speak with God. There have been laughs, tears, concern and a most unique human interaction……in a phone booth.
Radio-Electra streams audio live onto the Internet during the Burning Man event. They offer an eclectic array of music, commentary, comedy and general mayhem during the event. If you don’t like what’s on just tune in a couple hours later and it will be entirely different.
From the maker of Piss Clear comes the BRC Weekly, Black Rock City’s independent newsweekly. As Burning Man’s premiere lifestyle & culture rag, the BRC Weekly features funny articles, snarky editorials, and its infamous Out/In Lists and Playa Lingo.

One of the most honored and touching (and, at times, emotionally difficult) services provided by the webcast team has been to enable remote participants to deliver their own messages to the Temple.

Thanks to the pandemic and the two years of canceled Burns, the messages have already started to come in.
If you want the webcast team to deliver your message to the Temple, tag your favorite social media post with #TempleMSG or email the team directly at Webcast+Temple@burningman.org up until noon on Sunday before Temple Burn. Anonymous messages can also be DM’d directly to @motorbikematt on most social media.
