Burning Man Sound Camps Unveil Massive 2024 Lineups
Written by RickTee on August 25, 2024
After a typically busy build week in the Nevada desert, the citizens of Black Rock City are gearing up for another life-changing experience at Burning Man, which kicked off today.
Although the event failed to sell out for the first time in a decade, the anticipation remains sky-high with regard to all of the amazing art, music, connections and experiences on the playa this year. The same goes for BRC’s beloved sound camps, many of which revealed impressive lineups.
Perhaps the most highly anticipated sound camp lineup comes from Galaxyer, which will debut for the first time at Burning Man 2024. The team behind the treasured Mayan Warrior art car, which tragically burned down in 2023, shared a heartfelt message to the Burning Man community in early August before releasing a jaw-dropping lineup featuring Carl Cox, Adan Ten, RÜFÜS DU SOL (DJ set) and more. Galaxyer will be located around 2:30 & J from 4-8pm, with mezcal drinks served at their downtempo bar.
The Maxa art car also has big plans for Burning Man. This stunning art car, featuring a deer’s head with antlers that shoot fire, will host a massive lineup this year.
Catch Dennis Cruz b2b WhoMadeWho, Monolink (live), RÜFÜS DU SOL (DJ set) and many, many more. Maxa is due to link up with Galaxyer for a legendary collaboration on Monday, September 1st.
The Playground is bringing the heat once again this year with a top-tier selection of music across two stages: the Dune Lounge and the Arrival Stage. Their stacked lineup includes Vintage Culture, Adam Ten b2b Mita Gami, Diplo, Carl Cox and, of course, some very special surprise guests.
If you’re looking for a proper Burning Man get-down, look no further than Opulent Temple, which has been bringing big sound to the playa for over a decade. Their 2024 lineup includes Infected Mushroom (live PA and DJ set), Mau P, Max Styler and many more.
They’re also hosting a second stage called Opulent Chill for a more ambient experience. Opulent Temple is located at 2:00 and Esplanade this year.
One of the playa’s most legendary art cars, Robot Heart, shared a teaser post featuring artist fill-in-the-blanks, accompanied by each of Burning Man’s 10 Principles to stir excitement over their hotly anticipated 2024 lineup. Only time will tell which acts they’ve booked, but DJs including Anyma, Adam Ten, Vintage Culture and more have showed support in the post comments.
Be sure to keep an eye on Camp Questionmark, BRC’s iconic bass music camp. They recently posted and deleted a stacked lineup including Griz, who could be temporarily emerging from his hiatus for a rare performance on the playa alongside Diplo, Louis The Child, FLY and more.
Some additional sound camps to pay attention to this year include Titanic’s End, with sets by Girl Math (Nala b2b VNSSA), Tokimonsta b2b Diplo, ACRAZE and more, as well as Fluffy Cloud, featuring Kream, Diplo b2b Shizma, Vintage Culture and more. Plus, Horizon tapped Nala, VNSSA and Justin Martin, among others.
While the music at Burning Man 2024 is sure to contribute to a magical week in the Nevada desert, the array of theme camp activations, workshops, discussions, art installations and the magnificent Man and Temple builds will also captivate. Find out more via the event’s website.
