Burning Man CEO announces changes to 2019 ticket sales

The organization’s CEO, Marian Goodell, laid out “substantive” changes to how Burning Man would sell tickets this year in a lengthy post made to the Burning Man Journal over the weekend. In the meantime, here’s what Burners should expect this year:
The pre-sale, which is like the early-bird sale for tickets, will be moved until after the directed group sale, which is for burners who are “key contributors to Black Rock City (theme and mutant vehicle camps, art collectives, and core teams).” Social media influencers at Burning Man
Goodell’s post also directly calls out the increasing numbers of social media influencers and other similarly-sponsored attendees who use the event’s image to sell products or commercially gain through social media posts.
