After the tragic hit by the Coronavirus in 2020, festival season is looking towards 2021 to recover and get back on it’s feet. In addition to that, EDC will be celebrating it’s 25 years in 2021 which will make the event one of the mega experiences to look forward to in the coming months.
On Sunday, August 2nd, 2020 Insomniac (the company behind the event) announced that one of the world’s largest dance music festivals, Electric Daisy Carnival, will return to Las Vegas Motor Speedway on May 21, 22 and 23, 2021 to celebrate it’s 25 years.
“I’m not feeling down about this situation and I hope our fans aren’t either. Moving the show allows us even more time to add onto all of the incredible things we had planned for this year, and I could not be more excited for what we have in store for next May,” said Pasquale Rotella, Insomniac Founder and CEO. “I know our celebration of 25 years of EDC will be an unforgettable one, and I’m so grateful to have this experience to look forward to.”
