Now it is expanding beyond the desert to ignite a cultural, technological and artistic evolution on a global scale through the non-profit Burning Man Project.

Pricing is "pay what you can" to benefit the Project: $20, $30 or $50. Premium seating at $125 includes “This Is Burning Man” hard cover book signed by the presenters. $100 of this is tax deductible.
Z Space Theater is at 450 Florida Street in San Francisco. Doors open at

take place immediately following the presentation.
