About:

This event is not just about the music, but also features captivating art installations, carnival rides, interactive entertainment, and full-service concessions, making it a truly immersive experience for attendees.

EDC was first held in Los Angeles in 1997. It was organized by Insomniac Events, a production company specializing in electronic dance music events. The festival was initially projected to be a one-day event, but quickly gained popularity and expanded to two days in 2009 and then to three days in 2011.

EDC has become one of the world's largest electronic dance music festivals, attracting hundreds of thousands of attendees each year. The festival has also expanded internationally, with events held in Mexico, Brazil, Japan, and other countries.


Famous For:
Electric Daisy Carnival is famous for its epic pyrotechnics, lighting, and sound systems that make the festival an unforgettable spectacle. It's also a celebration of self-expression through music, art, fashion, and culture, where attendees are encouraged to be themselves and connect with others in a vibrant, accepting community.

From interactive art installations and live performances from emerging artists to playful activities like the silent disco and celebrity appearances throughout the weekend, EDC provides a fully interactive and engaging experience for its attendees.


Creation Purpose:
Electric Daisy Carnival was created with the intention of providing a platform for the underground EDM scene and celebrating the culture surrounding it. EDC's founder, Pasquale Rotella, created EDC as a space for like-minded individuals to come together and experience the music and culture of electronic dance music. The festival has since expanded to multiple cities worldwide and continues to draw in thousands of attendees every year.

The festival's first edition had only a few thousand attendees but has since grown to attract over 400,000 people in a single weekend.
