Avicii |
More
than 400,000 tickets were sold to EDM fans from across the world traveling to
Las Vegas this past weekend for Electric Daisy Carnival and EDC Week. Ensuring
every dance music fan left happy, XS nightclub kicked off the festivities for
early arrivers by opening for a special night on Thursday, June 19. Avicii drew
in fans and DJ icons alike as he was joined in on stage by friends Tiesto,
Sebastian Ingrosso, Diplo, and Axwell all stopping by to take in the set. Paris
Hilton and the L.A. Kings championship team were also spotted in VIP as Avicii
led the opening party for more than 9,000 eager party goers passing through the
gold doors of XS throughout the night.
As
the music festival kicked off Friday night at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway, XS
held its own on the strip with the only nightclub to catch a set by Zedd in Sin
City this past weekend. Steve Angello kept the party going on Saturday night
into the early hours of the morning, as his EDC weekend sets have so famously
been known to do, while Skrillex took over the deck on Sunday night for a
special edition of the notorious Night Swim, and the only place to catch his
set this weekend. Guests packed the
pool, splashing and enjoying the set beneath the beautiful Vegas evening.
EDC
came to a close Sunday but the party raged on at XS on Monday night as 10,500
fans, just shy of the venue’s attendance record set over Memorial Day weekend,
stayed for back-to-back sets by Diplo and Skrillex as well as an appearance by
RL Grime. At the conclusion of the weekend, EDM fans left Sin City eager to
return to XS for upcoming sets by Redfoo on June 27, deadmau5 on June 28, Fedde
le Grand on June 29 and Tommy Trash on June 30.
