The original Burning Man Festival in Nevada is such a cultural phenomenon that it has inspired similar Burns around the world, including a few in Europe and nearby. Sure, we all wish we could have gone to Burning Man in the 80’s when it was small, cool and groovy but hey, maybe 20 years from now people will say that about these smaller Burning Man Festivals…
