Access to and from Black Rock City, the event site, was closed "for the remainder of the event," organizers said in a statement on social media. The festival gets its name from its culminating event, the burning of a large wooden structure called the Man on the penultimate night. On Saturday, attendee Paul Reder, who has been going to the event for 22 years, told Reuters in a video call that he expected it would take at least two days for the area to dry out.
