Welcome to the Black Rock City Municpal Airport
Burning Man's airport rises from the dust each summer to serve Black Rock City Citizens for 13 days, then disappears without a trace. On busy days, 88NV is among the country's 100 busiest airports, hosting charter and GA traffic, free scenic flights, ultralights, and skydivers.
Our Airport is only possible through the collective efforts and dreams of hundreds of exceptional volunteers. We are in awe of your work. Thank you! We can't wait to see you in Black Rock City.
Passengers
You airborne Burners make a journey to the middle of nowhere, but way easier. But, you still have a great responsibility to be a good citizen! Don't worry, our Customs and Acculturation team will tell you all about it when you get here.
Have your Burning Man ticket in hand or confirmed at Will Call. No tickets are sold onsite and landing at 88NV without an event ticket is a Big No No!
Pilots
Oh hey there, Pilot. You want to fly your aircraft to Black Rock City? You sure? We require all pilots who intend to land at 88NV to preregister and qualify first, because things can get really weird out here. But you already knew that, didn't you? Because you've totally thought this through, right? Of course! Of course you have.
Find the pilot planning page here.
Camping
Airport Operations staff, work support camps full of volunteers, pilots, friends, BxA folks and two theme camps live here! Fun yes, but this ain't yer mom's basement, come help at the airport! Learn more about joining an existing Airport camp! You're welcome to visit & encouraged to volunteer!
