News : USA : Nevada : Las Vegas : Electric Daisy Carnival 2014
Who tops the bill at this year's Electric Daisy Carnival? The newly released flyer for the Las Vegas mega-rave revealed that, as usual, "The Most Important Headliner of All" is a familiar one - "You." That's not just flattery - it's long been an open secret that fans come for the heaving maw of fellow furry-booted peers more than any particular DJ. But for those actually watching the stages, this year's bill is packed with almost 200 EDC veterans, rising EDM stars and underground heroes. The lineup for the Electric Daisy Carnival 2014 features Tiesto, Kaskade, Calvin Harris and more. Click to see the whole flyer. (Insomniac) Afrojack, Alesso, Calvin Harris, Bassnectar, Hardwell, Steve Aoki, Avicii, Axwell /\ Ingrosso, Tiesto, Arty, Knife Party and Kaskade are among the biggest names atop this year's bill, all of whom are favored alumni of the HARD/Insomniac/Coachella fest circuit of recent years. The bill also includes a bevy of ascendant names, like teenage sensation Martin Garrix, Mat Zo, Dillon Francis and Eric Prydz; veterans like Paul Oakenfold, Green Velvet and Carl Cox; and some respectful nods at the underground like Jamie Jones, Damian Lazarus, Booka Shade, Art Department and Nicole Moudaber. The festival takes place June 20-22 at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway. More than 400,000 fans are expected to attend over the three days. Tickets are sold out, but spend time at any pool party in any major Vegas hotel and you'll probably get a glimpse of a few of these names.
Electric Daisy Carnival 2013 Review By Lindsey G.
OK, the time has come, for me to review the most magical place on earth.
EDC is not a rave. It's not a concert. I'm not even sure I'd call it a festival. It's an adventure, and an experience you'll never forget. Every year there are imperfections and hiccups with traffic, weather, etc, but none of that has ever taken away my love for EDC.
If you love EDM: The music here is unreal. Every artist brings their "A game" to put on an amazing set. I've discovered some of my favorite artists and new songs here, and heard music that will never be recorded or heard anywhere else (thanks Porter Robinson!) The lineup is incredible every year, so no matter who your favorites are, the majority of them are bound to be playing. The ones you haven't heard of yet are sometimes the best, so don't forget to wander from stage to stage considering you have 3 whole nights to do so.
If you love to dance: The amount of open space makes me so damn happy! If you get claustrophobic in clubs and big crowds like me, no need to worry at EDC! Every stage has ample room to get your groove on without the fear of an elbow to the face.
If you love pretty lights: (yes he will probably be there) But seriously, the light installations are UN. REAL. My personal favorite is the tunnel of color changing lights you can walk through (O M G). The monstrous daisies are also pretty incredible, and every year there's something new that's mind-alteringly beautiful.
If you love a good sunrise: One of the best parts of EDC is seeing the sunrise while listening to your favorite music. At first, you freak out when you realize it's new day, but then you bask in the glory of watching the sun come up while having the time of your life.
If you love PLUR: You will meet some truly amazing people at EDC. Some of them might seem "different" than you or who you're used to, but isn't that the beauty of it? If you keep an open mind you will be amazed at who you end up meeting and spending your weekend with. Trading kandi is fun! And don't forget, strangers are just friends you haven't met yet :)
Lastly, if you don't like any of those things, don't go to EDC. I hate to rant on the scene getting too "mainstream", but it's the reasons above that this event is so magical. If the music, beauty, and PLUR lifestyle don't do it for you, no need to attend.
