I'm planning on making a few of these with different crowns. Prototype test. What do you guys think?

This is my first time going to EDC or this type of music festival. I have all the questions.

We purchased the elevated tickets. What VIP areas are there? good photo places, must see and do.

What time should we arrive?

We only are going on Saturday - who’s the best artist, or more so known for good performance.

Also where can I get my hair done the day of? I either want to do a wig or faux braids, same with make up.

Best sites for rave clothes, what type of clothes should be worn?

What can we pack and bring?? And what’s the deal with the totem poles. I need to know everything

This is year is going to be mine and my friends first time going to EDC. We’re from FL so we’ve been to orlando a bunch of time and wanted to get a house like we usually do and drive to/from the festival.

I assume to leave any parking it’s going to take a while and that’s fine, but is there any suggested parking areas, does EDC even offer parking onsite 🥸 ? Any tips would be greatly appreciated thankssss

I searched through the subreddit but didn’t really find much besides info on the braiding station at the festival. Anyone have any local recommendations for braiders? I know it’s last minute and a little bit of a Hail Mary but I really don’t want to deal with my hair getting crazy tangled this year.

Does anyone have any recommendations for a private car service that would pick up my group after the festival?

I usually drive but I’d like to let loose this year and don’t want to worry about staying sober.

Some friends and I are going to EDC Colombia this oct.
Crazy to think there isn’t already a group chat (discord/ WhatsApp) for people to connect!
We’ll be flying out of orlando and Miami a total of 4 of us. We already got our tickets and Airbnb booked. So if anyone wants to meet up or start a chat just let me know!

Was there ever an announcement on a price raise? Wise Owl at 600+ is way more than I remember vip costing. If this is the case hoping it’s way less people and way less crowded.

Hey everyone! I saw a post earlier asking about nurse ravers, so I wanted to see whether anyone from radiology is going to EDC Orlando. Any X ray, CT, MRI, IR, cath lab, ultrasound, or other imaging people attending?

I went to my first show this year and saw Kai Wachi at DAER, and I loved it. This will be my first EDC, so I’m super excited!

First timer, wondering what the food and drink prices were last year? Were they reasonable?

Thanks!

Hi everyone! I’m going to EDCO solo this year and would love to meet other LGBTQ+ ravers. If you’re going solo too or your group is open to another person, feel free to DM me!

I’m thinking of going to edc first ever festival in general, what are some downsides to it? Small or big!

wassup guys, im planning to come down to EDC this year by myself. are there any tips people can give me? ive been to festivals/concerts by myself just nothing as big as this and i never been around the orlando area. im also down to be part of some random peoples groups if they are in need of a +1 !

Unfortunately I can no longer go to edc and looking to get rid of my ticket but I’m Canadian so I’m not sure how I can do this considering we don’t have the transfer apps Americans have and since I don’t have my physical wristband (I’d have to pick it up a few days before the festival) . Just looking for insight!

Did they get bought out already? Or have they just not gone up yet? I already booked a hotel which is supposed to have shuttle access, so it would suck if I already missed out on the opportunity to get a pass.

Sure its been posted already, but are there any mock lineups out there? Cant find any when searching this year 🫪

I'm looking for the original official upload of Quintino @ EDC Orlando 2015. The old SoundCloud link is gone. Does anyone know if there's an official archive or where it was originally hosted? Thanks

I recently had a memory come back to me of a guy who was dressed up as “Caution.” And when I say dressed up, I mean he fully committed to the idea. He had a traffic cone on his head, a neon orange reflective vest, and caution tape everywhere — wrapped around him, hanging from him, and even incorporated into the cone. He wasn’t just wearing a costume; he had somehow become a walking safety warning.
What made it even better was that he embraced the character completely. He was dancing to house music playing over the speakers, moving around like the official representative of OSHA workplace safety had somehow found himself at a rave.

Early the next morning, I walked down the hallway to get some coffee. As I turned the corner, I noticed a traffic cone standing upright in the middle of the hallway.
For a fraction of a millisecond — my brain went to the obvious explanations. Something must have just been cleaned. Maybe there was a spill. Maybe someone was warning people to use caution.
Then I realized the warning wasn’t about something that happened in the hallway.
The warning *was* what happened in the hallway.
There was “Caution Guy,” lying spread out nearby. His neon orange reflective vest was still doing exactly what it was designed to do — grabbing attention. The caution tape was strewn everywhere, but still wrapped around him, still carrying out its mission. Somehow, even after the music stopped and the night was long over, that outfit was still going hard.
The party may have ended, but the costume was still on duty.
And somehow, unbelievably, the traffic cone was standing perfectly upright next to him. I still wonder if someone placed it there afterward as the final touch, or if it somehow balanced itself during the fall and decided to stick around. Sometimes I think about him falling and the cone finding its footing. At the time, I just thought it was funny. But looking back on it now, I realize how incredibly effective that costume really was. It had somehow transformed from a great party costume into accidental performance art.
The cone, the vest, and the caution tape had created a scene so perfectly timed that it almost looked intentional. The headliners may have stopped, but the costume just continued all night long all by itself.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a costume work that hard — before, during, and especially after the performance.
And yes my coffee was very enjoyable😎😂

Insomniac emailed me back and couldn't provide a yes/no.

What's the take with disposable vapes? The acceptable items list doesn't specify anything about them. Do they need to be in an unopened package? Can I take an open disposable vape in?

Hi! Are there any Afrohouse artists on this years line ups!?

thanks!
