You have to laugh … I remember Glastonbury, up to my knees in mud - it’s all part of the fun. Having said that, it’s unlikely turn into a survival situation in a field in Somerset, so not really that comparable …

Burning man is held on the playa.
A playa is a dried-up lake.
This year, the playa is becoming a lake.
Nature is healing.
Playa means beach, at least in Spanish. Where are you getting *dried up lake" from?

This English definition does come from the Spanish word for “Beach.”

Who else has been confused by seeing the word “playa” in news and memes in the context of Burning Man? I thought they were talking about the fuckbois at first
Next year they should call it Playas on the Playa
Personally I thought “playa” was short for “play area” or something. Like, it’s where all the artists come to play for a weekend.
I really wonder how the Spanish word “beach” became “dried up lake” in English. Spanish speakers must be very confused. It’s like ハンドル in Japanese. It’s basically a Japanese pronunciation of “handle” but they use it to mean “steering wheel”.
