| - This year (2013) is my first time going to EDC. In fact, it is my first time at a massive rave. It was an experience unlike any other, and it felt like Disneyland... for adults! The dazzling lights, funky music, crazy carnival rides and fantastic art pieces come together so magically to make every night an unbelievable one.
There is no lack of things to do. Apart from the amazing line up at the different stages, there is also a wide array of drinks, food and merchandise stalls. You can chill under the giant daisy artwork, or you could hop onto a thrilling roller coaster or zipper ride that might send you running for the trashcan :P Trust me, you will be duly entertained from sunset to sunrise.
The line up is also pretty strong, and extremely worth it for the price of the ticket. The shuttle service was really bad on the first night, but it improved on the second and third night. Kudos to the shuttle service team for the fast response and improvement!
Also, I have to comment that for such a large turnout, the bathroom service was actually decent enough. Most of the portable toilets start to run out of toilet paper or hand sanitizer towards the end of the night, but still, most were decent enough!
Some tips:
- Bring your own toilet paper
- Drink lots of water. It is VERY important to hydrate, especially with the crappy Vegas desert weather.
- Ear plugs might be necessary at some stages
- Leave the cell phones behind since you can barely get any reception!
To be honest, I expected EDC to be a lot more wild than what I've experienced this year. I guess the security team did a good job at searching everyone :P EDC is an experience like no other, and I definitely look forward to coming back again next year... and the year after next.... :)
PLUR!!
