The
third and final night of the 18th annual Electric Daisy Carnival has come to a
successful close. While we are sad to see you go, we’re grateful for the time
spent together creating another weekend of unforgettable memories.
EDC
welcomed a sold-out crowd of 400,000 smiling faces during three beautiful
nights of love, music, art and community. Fans from 40 countries and all 50
states came together to witness performances from over 200 of today’s most
popular and underground EDM artists.

The
circuitGROUNDS stage expanded to almost twice its size in length this year,
breaking the record as the largest clear-span structure in the world. Measuring
400 feet long, the stage also featured more than 750 lighting fixtures and
10,500 square feet of video panels that descended from the stage’s dome
ceiling.
7UP
brought the party to life with the dynamic and immersive experience at Stage 7.
Fans experienced endless tracks from some of dance music’s hottest DJs, and
were able to dance high above the crowds on an elevated catwalk.

Setting
the scene for love and unity, approximately 70 legal weddings took place over
the course of the three-day festival—more than five times the amount of
weddings than last year. Couples stood beneath the specially crafted altars
that featured a beautiful arrangement of vibrant daisies to share their vows.
EDC
Vegas saw the return of many fan-favorite art cars, including the BoomBox,
which welcomed performances from up-and-coming DJs and producers. Fans danced
as they followed the mobile sound system throughout the festival grounds. The
Mayan Warrior art car, making its first Las Vegas appearance after its debut at
EDC Mexico, wowed fans throughout the grounds with fiery special effects and
vivid LED lighting.
For
the first time, Insomniac and Global Inheritance teamed up to create the
TRASHed recycling store where fans could bring recyclable materials and earn
points towards special merchandise. Each day, two fans that participated were
randomly selected to be upgraded to VIP, and an additional two lucky attendees
will receive tickets for next year’s festival. Global Inheritance is a
creative, cause-based campaign that aims to educate individuals about the
global issues that affect us all.
If
the post-EDC blues are already setting in, be sure to relive the magic and
catch a screening of the 3D documentary, Under the Electric Sky, as it hits
select theaters in Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco, Las Vegas and Phoenix
on Friday, June 27.
