37 am.

Burning Man has expressed their condolences to the family and friends affected by the loss, emphasizing that the safety and well-being of their staff and community are paramount.

They are fully cooperating with local authorities in the investigation.

The Pershing County Sheriff’s office investigates all deaths within its jurisdiction.

Out of respect for the grieving family’s privacy, no further details will be provided at this time.

Over the past three decades, multiple deaths have been reported at Burning Man, many resulting from accidents involving art cars.

The most recent was Leon Reece of Truckee, who passed away last year due to suspected drug intoxication.

Burning Man officially kicked off on Sunday with 20,000 people already on the playa, but it got off to a muddy start as rainfall led to a 12-hour gate closure prior to that morning.

Attendance is expected to be high, with an estimated 70,000 people making Black Rock City their home until September 7 when the festival concludes.

Burning Man is offering services to those who need support during this difficult time.

Black Rock Rangers are available to provide peer support services at Ranger HQ and Outposts, and Black Rock City’s Emergency Services Department’s Crisis Support team is also available 24/7.

After ten years of working for the nonprofit organization Pro Player Foundation, Gilmore launched EDM Identity as a media outlet offering accurate and informative coverage of the rave scene and electronic music as a whole.

Although they cover comprehensive topics, they have taken special care in interviewing the likes of Armin van Buuren, Adventure Club, Gorgon City, Lane 8, and Afrojack.

In addition to household names, they have also highlighted unsung heroes of the industry through their ID Spotlight segment.
