A Look Back at the Telluride Fire Festival
A taste of Nevada’s Burning Man Festival in the San Juan Mountains
Over-the-top, eccentric and fiery: Telluride’s annual Fire Festival returned for the fifth consecutive year delivering another memorable and immersive art spectacle for fest-goers.
Inspired by Nevada’s Burning Man event held in Black Rock Desert, the weekend long rounded up bonfire-esque wooden sculptures, fire spinning and art installations from local and nationwide artists to showcase on December 6-8, 2019.
