Local authorities are investigating a death at the event, which occurred during the rain. Further information is currently unavailable.
On Saturday evening, the entrance to Burning Man was closed by the Bureau of Land Management and a local sheriff’s office, along with nearby roads due to flooding.
Organizers have not given a timeline for when event access will reopen, but the rain is expected to clear on Sunday evening according to weather forecasts.
Burning Man’s gates were initially closed a few days before the official start date to allow the playa to dry. However, scheduled art burns, including the burning of the Man statue, have been postponed due to the weather. The event is scheduled to end on Monday.
Despite the shelter-in-place order, some attendees like Chris Rock and Diplo have attempted to leave.
Diplo tweeted about walking in the mud with Chris Rock before being picked up by a fan. He shared a video revealing shimmery gold face paint beneath his goggles.
