Burning Man’s Iconic 747 Lands at AREA15

Get ready to party inside a plane: this immersive experience is taking flight in Las Vegas

AREA15, the immersive and experiential art and entertainment district in Las Vegas, announced that one of Burning Man’s most iconic large-scale art pieces—the famous Boeing 747—is now onsite at the expanded district.

Burning Man’s Boeing 747 is a decommissioned passenger jet that was reimagined as an art installation and immersive experience for the 2017 Burning Man festival in the Black Rock Desert of Nevada. A team of artists and engineers transformed the plane into a massive, interactive artwork. They gutted the interior, added lighting and sound systems, and created spaces for people to explore and gather. At the festival, the 747 became a popular attraction, offering a unique space for parties, performances, and exploration. It symbolized the event’s themes of creativity, community, and self-expression.

Measuring 150 feet in length and 60 feet in width, the Boeing 747 will be reimagined as a one-of-a-kind cocktail and dining experience. With a future capacity of more than 1,300 guests, the repurposed 747 is set to become a groundbreaking addition to AREA15’s collection of world-class art-inspired attractions. Building off the momentum of Universal Horror Unleashed, Meow Wolf’s Omega Mart and the Museum of Ice Cream, the Boeing 747 reinforces AREA15’s legacy of bold, immersive art and experiential entertainment offerings. AREA15 will unveil further details about this exciting new destination experience this summer.
