“Last year we celebrated 20 years of EDC with over 400,000 beautiful people in Las Vegas, and it was truly a milestone for Insomniac” said Pasquale Rotella, Founder and CEO of Insomniac. “Each year we strive to push the boundaries of what a live music experience can be, and how we can build emotions and memories that last a lifetime. An accepting community and culture is the foundation that EDC was built upon and I look forward to creating new experiences in 2017 for our Headliners all over the world.”

This past June, hundreds of thousands of fans traveled from more than 60 countries around the world to celebrate 20 years of EDC together. Eight fully immersive stage designs were scattered throughout the expansive Las Vegas Motor Speedway, hosting a legendary lineup of old-school acts, new fan-favorites and special guest appearances.  Fourteen whimsical art cars weaved through the grounds radiating positivity and high energy. Headliners experienced brand new, stunning productions like the awe-inspiring kineticTEMPLE stage – its design stretching nearly 100 feet tall and displaying the tremendous LED-lit Tree of Imagination. Debuting a layout three times larger than in previous years, the circuitGROUNDS stage embraced the crowd with a 360-degree multi-sensory experience illuminated by a sky of vibrant fireworks.

History was made at EDC Las Vegas 2016 as the festival hosted its first federally recognized same-sex wedding, held in the beautiful Chapel of Nature. Nearly 200 legal ceremonies were conducted throughout the weekend as guests of all shapes, sizes, and backgrounds tied the knot Under the Electric Sky. Attendees were also treated to Insomniac’s industry-leading VIP program at four stages, which included unique amenities and activities such as a pop-up ’90s warehouse party, a fully-stocked beauty lounge, scavenger hunts, an 1920s inspired speakeasy, luxurious day beds and more.

Beyond the festival, Insomniac’s charitable giving program, Insomniac Cares, partnered with eBay for Charity to host the 2^nd annual EDC Week Charity Auction, offering fans the chance to bid on once-in-a-lifetime experiences surrounding EDC Las Vegas. An incredible $120,000 was raised for nonprofit, The Shade Tree, dedicated to improving the lives of women, children, and their pets affected by domestic violence and crisis in the Las Vegas valley. One hundred percent of the proceeds will go to reconstructing and designing a brand new Children’s Activity Center for The Shade Tree in 2017. Additionally, three local Las Vegas charities, the Nevada Childhood Cancer Foundation, Emergency Medicine Resident Research Fund at UNLV, and the Injured Police Officers Fund, received a $120,000 donation from EDC Las Vegas ticket sales to support their wonderful services to the community.
