Organizers announced Friday evening that the arts festival scheduled to start Aug. 30 in Northern Nevada's Black Rock Desert would not take place due to global efforts to limit the spread of the COVID-19 virus.
Attendees who purchased tickets through smaller sales earlier in the year will be reimbursed, though the organization pleaded for its followers to make the purchase price a contribution to the organization if they can afford it. The event, which grew from a few dozen people to tens of thousands, has never been canceled despite monsoon rains, serious injuries and deaths on site and an arson in which the"Man" effigy burned down early one year.
