Your stepping stone to BRC is Reno. Whether you are flying or driving, a good night sleep and a free shuttle may be just what you need. Once again, Dr. Pyro has negotiated rooms for burners over at the J Resort. Yes, this is a discount hotel for Burning Man.
By the way: Have you checked out eplaya.burningman.org?
While most burner news is now on social media, old school burners used the official boards to share information. There is still quite a bit of information stored here, and you are invited to poke around and find gems like this special, courtesy of Dr Pyro, a veteran burner with over 25 years under his belt. Every burn, he negotiates great rates for the community…but you have to actually CALL to get these rates.
This post is from eplaya, and you can read the actual post here, but for quick reference, the details for 2025 are below:
Welcome home, campers! You asked for it and you got it! Your old friend and debauched neighbor Doc Pyro has once again, as my gift to Black Rock City, am offering up the J Resort Hotel Deal for 2025.

I have taken down several floors of rooms and each room sleeps 4 (or 12 if you’re sponsoring the orgy). The J Resort has a free sauna, large jacuzzi, ice machines on every floor, large outdoor swimming pool, and ample free parking. There is also a free shuttle to and from the airport.

Free parking for burners? And free burning man airport shuttle? Yes!
This option is perfect if you are taking the Burner Express, or getting dropped off in Reno. As it leaves from the Reno Airport, you can stay the night at J Resort before and/or after, and take their shuttle to RNO. If you are driving your RV, you have a place to park your rig and get cleaned up before your drive home.
A heartfelt thank you to Doc Pyro and his awesome camp, Barbie Death Village.
