Regional Contacts

New Mexico

New Mexico has a broad and diverse Burning Man culture that is focused in a few parts of the state. Most of the Burners here live in Albuquerque, Santa Fe and Taos, though there are a few embers burning in other places as well. We do not currently hold Official Regional Events at this point, although there are several Burner gatherings and happenings throughout the year in various locations.

The most established community events take place at 3sidedwhole, 45 minutes NW of ABQ. While for odd political reasons, 3sidedwhole has chosen not to hold official Regional events anymore, we DO abide by the 10 principles of Burning Man, and there are several interactive community gatherings planned throughout the year. A $65 annual membership gets you free access to all events.
