ELECTRIC DAISY CARNIVAL CELEBRATES ITS SILVER MILESTONE

Want to get down and dance with 400,000 new best friends? North America’s largest dance music festival, the venerable Electric Daisy Carnival, returns to Las Vegas on May 17 for a long weekend of early summer fun.

Transforming more than 1,000 acres of the Las Vegas Motor Speedway, the event promises to deliver an unrivaled celebration from dusk till dawn. Over 200 of
dance music’s most recognizable names are scheduled to hit the stage.

“EDC is our community’s New Year’s Eve, Mardi Gras and Super Bowl,” Pasquale Rotella, CEO and founder of parent company Insomniac, said.

2019 marks EDC Las Vegas’23rd year, but it’s Insomniac’s 25th year of the festival—Rotella is proud of how it’s endured.

“EDC today looks nothing like the first EDC that happened at the Shrine Auditorium in 1997,” Rotella said.

This year’s festival includes an entirely new layout that utilizes new areas of the speedway. Expect groundbreaking art installations and new stage designs with
next-gen technology, sound and lighting.

“It’s changed in every way, but the core values of EDC have stayed the same,” Rotella emphasized. “People coming together to connect with each other
through community, dancing like no one’s watching, being your best self and looking out for one another.”
