EDC, you are AMAZING! Never have I ever been to a place where I felt like EVERYONE was my friend. No seriously, everybody is so damn friendly here and I LOVE THE CROWD! It's definitely a place to let go of your insecurities, inhibitions and go wild with the crowd. Nobody gives a rat's ass how you look or what you're doing, and this is the place to truly express yourself.
EDC is definitely one of the best raves in the world and for $500CAD/$400US (wow the CAD dollar is weaker than the drinks at a cheap bar..), I'd say it's 100% worth it. Large field with literally every big headlining DJ I've ever wanted to see, all in one place in 3 days. This fest knows how to keep a girl happy! Considering seeing an individual DJ at a rave is like $50-150, this is DEFINITELY worth your money. Keep in mind, it's extremely hot (during EDC 2015, there was a heatwave that weekend & it went up to 54*C/129*F...) so prepare your body. Also may be a bit tough for claustrophobic people; the crowd can get super squishy during popular shows (shoutout to me for being a sardine in a can during the dada life set)
TIPS TO KNOW
1. No bringing in water bottles (except camelbaks and insomniac bottles - empty). No liquids of any type - they'll take away your eyedrops!
2. If you feel anxious/nauseous/woozy/tired, go to 'cosmic fields' (the field RIGHT as you walk in through the back entrance) - there's grass and you can lay down there and feel better
3. FANNY PACK. Always.
4. Zero cellphone reception (uh hello, 150000-300000 people in one place..) FIND A MEETING PLACE, or bring a totem (not only for raving purposes, but for your friends to find you)
5. Comfy shoes - if you usually rave in docs (especially if you're from a place not as boiling hot as vegas), wear something cheap and bendy (vans, converse work too)
6. NOBODY JUDGES YOU. Don't worry about looking 'slutty' if you're wearing too little clothes or if your buttcheeks are completely out. It's so hot that you'll actually pass away if you have clothes on so LET IT LOOSE, GURLFRAND. (or boyfranddd)
7. STAY THE F HYDRATED!!!!!!!! PLEASE keep water/gatorade (electrolytes) on you at all times. Too many times have I seen people being rolled out on stretchers from dehydration.
This is one of those places where I was 100% sober and had an amazing time. Everything ran through so smoothly - different stages for different types of edm, lineups are on time, firework show on point AND carnival rides forever! There are so so so many things to do here, I go to a stage to rage, then I go play bumper cars, then I'd go trade kandi and then I'd shuffle the night away.
If you're on the fence, SAVE YOUR $ AND GO!!
^ Take my advice, and see you all under the electric sky again!!
