Can you believe Decadence Arizona is gearing up to celebrate ten years in the game? For some of us, it seems like only yesterday that Relentless Beats launched its adaptation of Global Dance‘s Denver New Year’s Eve festival. In light of the occasion, organizers have pulled out all the stops to deliver a lineup worthy of the milestone for every reveler who sets foot in the Phoenix Raceway on December 30-31.
Between tech house superstar John Summit, progressive mastermind deadmau5, and heavy bass figurehead Excision, Relentless Beats made sure that the tenth anniversary of Decadence Arizona would start a conversation. House heads can further look forward to major names like Dom Dolla and Mau P, whereas bass heads will delight in catching DJ sets by the likes of SVDDEN DEATH and Zeds Dead. Recent breakthrough talent like ISOxo and Nostalgix also bring new blood to the Decadence Arizona 2024 lineup.

Decadence Arizona 2024 – Transportation and Shuttle Info:
Driving to and from the Phoenix Raceway can cause delays during an event as big as Decadence Arizona — and be warned that even with a parking pass, if you leave your vehicle there overnight, it will get towed. The safest bet is to buy a pass for shuttles that will transport you to and from nearby Tempe each night on a first-come-first-serve basis with numerous departure times.
Both shuttle and parking passes can be purchased via the “Extras” section of Decadence Arizona 2024’s Tixr page. You can also rent lockers, check coats in advance, and buy merchandise from there.
Reminder To Mind Your Belongings:
Unfortunately, many recent festival attendees have reported pickpockets, bag slashings, and theft of wallets, smartphones, purses, and other valuables. While this small number of bad apples in the bunch doesn’t define an entire crowd, some opportunistic people come to these events to take advantage of unsuspecting party-goers. It’s essential to be mindful of your valuables while at Decadence Arizona.

Decadence Arizona 2024 – Bag Policy:
For maximum attendee safety, Relentless Beats has taken followed the lead of several other US festival promoters by implementing a clear bag policy at Decadence Arizona 2024. This means that only fully clear, colored clear, or mesh bags with dimensions up to 15″ x 15″ x 5″ will be allowed in the venue.
There are two exceptions to the clear bag policy. One will be made for small, handheld bags up to 5″ x “7” x 2″. The other allows for attendees to bring hydration packs up to 15″ x 15″ x 5″ as long as they’re completely empty at the time of arrival.
