Edc Las Vegas

Encapsulating the EDC Las Vegas experience in a review is tough. But I will try my best. While I had been to a couple of raves in my day, I had not been to one of this scale. EDC is the largest EDM festival in the world next to Tomorrowland in Europe. Which presents both pros and cons to your experience. Here are some of the pros. Given the stature of the event, you'll be able to see the best DJs in the world. In fact, there are so many DJs that attend that you'll have to pick and choose which ones to see. The performances, however, are only part of the experience. EDC is basically an adult playground. There are so many nooks and crannies to explore. Various entertainment options, food, drinks . . . lots of fun to get into. The culture surrounding EDC and the elaborate outfits that a lot of people where are also really, really cool to see. The sets are incredible. There are fireworks, including the use of drones. It's a unique experience. With that being said, there are definite cons too. It's packed. Which means you'll be navigating a madhouse and lines. The food can be a hit or a miss. The prices, both to attend, and there, are quite expensive. The performances go late so you really have to have a ton of energy to survive the multi-day festival. You'll see rampant drug use. These are things that do impact the experience. And if you're camping at EDC, that's a whole other animal in itself. Am I happy I attended? Absolutely. It was a great bucket list item to cross off. Would I attend again? I'm conflicted.

This was my second EDC in Las Vegas and boy was it an amazing experience. It was memorable, euphoric, and mesmerizing. I was able to go all 3 days this year. The energy is like no other. It wasn't too hot this year and both Saturday and Sunday had some wind. Presentation and the stages are out of this world, as was the fireworks show and the drone shows. I say everyone who loves music as a whole should check out EDC at least once. I had a great time. The only thing was the preferred parking which we paid and on the first day, it took us 3.5 hours to just get out of the parking lot because it was 1 lane and they let other parking lots go first for some reason. Otherwise the experience was phenomenal.

My first ever Rave/EDC and I would definitely recommend it!! It feels like a dream and not real at the same time. The vibes here are incredible and I've received nothing but love here.

5/20-5/22, 2022Too young for Woodstock. Too old for EDC? Well if Shaq A.K.A. DJ Diesel brought Lebron James with him to party and the logo screams "Here, all are welcomed"; LET'S DANCE!Information Subscribe to the EDC mailing list to get updated information on when to purchase tickets in advance and on deals for layaway plans. There are other ways to obtain passes but I leave it up to you (the reader) to do your off-the-street research. I purchased a 3-day-general admission pass with only a $3.00 deposit for the layaway plan; by golly such a deal! My passes were paid off in six months and within my budget. The Package I was so excited to receive a colorful trifold hard case box enclosed in a hard cover enclosure. I quickly slid the box out and slowly opened the front lid to find a pop-up flower...sooo DOPE! The other side contained an informational booklet with all the details of the event. The last fold had the actual wristband, luggage tag, several collectible pins, and stickers galore (all of which I collect). The venueLocated on the Las Vegas Speedway, home base to EDC since 2011. This massive base covers 1200 acres of ground space for huge events. Perfect fit for the nine awesome stages beautifully curated with architectural wooden structures that articulate and are covered in bold laser lights. There were 2 Ferris wheels and several small swing rides. It's literally an adult Disneyland. The merch boothSo many fine collectables: large hand fans, pins, sweat shirts, bucket hats, hydro packs, stickers, back packs, blankets, flags, and bandanas all with EDC/Insomniac logos, available for purchase. There is a section in the venue that has separate stands that sell beads for bracelet trading. So freaking awesome!The tradePLUR; originally it was Peace, Love, Unity, Movement (PLUM) trade mark to DJ Frankie Bones of New York, but now it stands for Peace, Love, Unity, Respect. The DJ stopped a fight in a local warehouse rave, all music was at a halt when DJ Bones took the mic and reminded everyone of how important respect is in the rave community. PLUR is now an iconic hand shake between fellow ravers who join hand symbols for each acronym in exchange for beaded bracelets to trade it usually ends with a hug for mutual love and respect. The fitI searched on Amazon EDC outfits and surprisingly, it populated a sleuth of different rave styles. I chose the best ones that appeal to my fashion taste (photos uploaded). The know If you are middle-aged like me then it would behoove you to purchase some Dr. Scholl's orthopedic foot insoles and replace the ones in the given pair of shoes you are using for the evening. Purchase some compression socks to go with those insoles. Lol, believe me, your feet will thank you. Bring hydro packs empty ones because security will not let you in with open items or filled water packs. Take some Tylenol or Bayer for a long night of discovery in a huge playground. Bring a card for monetary purchases or you may exchange cash for credit at the labeled monetary booth. Hand sanitizer, disposable wipes, a large fan/electric handheld fan are a must have.The experience This is my very first EDC experience and I tagged along with my partner in crime, my forever plus one, my King mate. Yet another check mark to tally on my bucket list. The stage presence, the bass from all the EDM had my blood flowing, the fireworks, and all the beautiful people (with a little liquid courage/off the street pharmaceuticals) were all so kind. It was an electric sky and a memory to go down in my history of existence. I shall return!l

I say everyone needs to do it atleast once in their life. This was my second year, last year being my first. 2021 was better, seemed to have better artist line up. Also parking was more organized last year. If you arrive after 9pm beware cause parking can take forever. Some parking is about 2 mile walk to the entrance. I mean be prepared, each day at EDC, you will do an average of & miles or more. There are so many stages to choose from so you are bound to find an artist you like. Besides the artist, lots of other activities to do. To prepare , watch YouTube's of many pros that have the experience down to a science. Bathrooms- just be prepared to have TP and your own sanitizer. Fireworks are always amazing!!! Overall a great energizing experience that you'll forever remember!

The EDC Camp was "OFF THE CHAIN". The 9AM Ragers with an actual dancefloor, mist fans and DJ's spinning the tunes was awesome. The pool party was amazing. Loved how security was willing to look the other way...if I decided to return w/o a proper bikini lol. I think my bikini top and rhinestone jewel cut off jean shorts gave me proper clearance. Love the "Roller Disco" in the middle of a desert. Great idea! Almost everyone roller skated in tiny shorts, crop tops or THONG BIKINIS. It took some time getting warmed up in the rink...it had been a while since I skated. The food tents served delicious food. My favorite was the Mac n' Cheese tent. Had a chance to see "MOM's & DAD's"...they brought their RV's, Kandi craft stations, free hugs and hot cocoa. Let's not forget the old school jokes they brought with them "What do you call the wife of a hippie?" Answer: A Mississippi lol. The general store had everything I needed from a toothbrush to wet wipes. Next time, I am staying in a shiftpod with A/C. I thoroughly enjoyed the EDC CAMP.

After three years of going to insomniac events like this, never have I ever been treated with such disrespect from security. Security there sitting around fiddling there fingers taking things from people just to use them for their own gain. @pascal the security you hire should have some standard, Instead these guys are trying to make a profit off things that were "confiscated". The security were just plain out rude and didn't respect the ways of PLUR. I WILL NOT BE RETURNING TO AN EVENT LIKE THIS. So much for things to be fun and it gets ruined by some asshole of a security guard

EDC was great, just be careful of people stealing from your pockets/bags when you go !

I must say that this entire event blew my mind and my friends minds! It was basically a huge event like that of Disneyland. However, this Disneyland was for adults only!It was really cool that they provided free water for all the attendees. They not only have music, but they have food, alcohol beverages, and rides! What I would like to see changed for the future: less hassle to get to the actual venue. It took us nearly two hours sitting in stopped traffic to get there.Perhaps a little warning for the people going that it's absolutely freezing and high winds. (I had to borrow a sweater from someone) I personally think this is a once in a lifetime type of event. I won't be returning, but I'll carry the memories forever.

Last year was so much better in my opinion.... Here's everything that went wrong , Alan Walker set was cut short from high wind and he left without continuing , and when the stage was shut down there wasn't any staff to help or anything .Circuit grounds had too much bass and you could barely hear the track for all performers at that stage . Kaskade at kinetic field was trash because it was too much treble it was screechy and too high pitched .Let's not forget by the bathrooms there isn't a hand washing station only hand sanitizer ,so gross .LASTLY I WAS SITTING AT A TABLE AND THE WIND PUSHED A GATE THAT FELL ON ME . A group helped me by still I feel it's on EDC / Insomniac to fully secure / check fences .
