Our Favorite Instagram Posts Of Burning Man 2022

Burning Man is back, baby! After two years of pandemic living, which resulted in an unofficial pop-up Burn, this year’s Burning Man finally looks like the epic festivals of old — even after a dust storm threatened to derail the whole thing and an unrelenting heat wave sent playa temperatures into the triple digits. Despite the harsh conditions, Burners rejoiced in the dusty sunshine in the sort of wild post-apocalyptic costumes we’ve come to expect from Burning Man, erecting fantastical art exhibits, including some of the craziest mutant vehicles in recent memory.

This year’s Burning Man theme was Waking Dreams, and Burners took that as an opportunity to reflect the transformative, surreal, and sometimes psychedelic aspects of dreams — resulting in some of the coolest Burning Man art we’ve seen in a long while. Maybe that has a lot to do with the fact that we haven’t had a proper Burn since 2019, but without a doubt, Burners went hard in 2022, making up for lost time.

We’ve rounded up some of the best Instagram photos from this year’s gathering so you could see what you missed out on. Trust us, the sights will have you itching for 2023’s Burn, so if you start making travel arrangements a year in advance, we don’t blame you. Here are the best Instagram images from Burning Man 2022.
