Craigh Mann, 60, was found dead in his camp in Black Rock City, Nevada, around 3 PM on Saturday, the festival said. No cause of death has been revealed.
"Our thoughts and deepest condolences are with the participant's family, friends, campmates, and all those affected by this loss," the festival said in a statement.
Two Festival Attendees Die at Burning Man
His death comes days after a fellow Burning Man attendee died after suffering a medical emergency. The late 50-year-old festivalgoer was taken to the camp's emergency care center, where he was pronounced dead.
"It is with heavy hearts that Burning Man Project confirms a Black Rock City participant in his mid-50s experienced a medical emergency, immediately received lifesaving measures, and was transported to the onsite center for emergency care where he was pronounced deceased," Burning Man also said in the statement.
Burning Man, a nine-day festival that draws about 70,000 attendees, is an annual event. Featuring a heavy mix of EDM and techno music, the festival began 40 years ago.
The two deaths at this year's festival continue a troubling trend of medical emergencies among concert attendees.
Last month, longtime music journalist Dom Lawson survived a heart attack he suffered at the Bloodstock Festival.
Iron Maiden fans may know Lawson from his appearance in the recently released documentary Iron Maiden: Burning Ambition. Music enthusiasts may also recognize him for his published work on Metal Hammer, Prog, The Guardian, Blabbermouth and Loudwire.
Following his cardiac incident, Lawson provided a health update, in which he jokingly recommended never suffering a heart attack at a rock concert.
Unfortunately, I had a heart attack on Sunday and was rushed to the hospital," Lawson wrote via Instagram. "Managed to avoid dying, so that was a good start. Looks like I will be having some kind of surgery in the near future. Close shave, but you won't get rid of me that easily."
"Also, heart attacks f*cking hurt. Would not recommend," he hilariously concluded.
