Burnsville is home to the Burnsville Fire Muster, a local festival. It was
originally started during the 1970's by a resident named Roger Jackson who enjoyed collecting fire equipment. Each summer he would entertain his neighborhood by showing them his collection and holding a short parade. In the 1980's the community was looking into citywide celebrations and Jackson presented the concept of the fire muster. City officials took up the idea, and now the festival has grown to be a five day event.
