Are you heading to Florida for EDC Orlando this year? Stay in the know with all the essential info before you head to Tinker Field!
After a plethora of festivals, events, and club shows from Insomniac since the scene re-opened, they’re still chugging along at full speed with EDC Orlando on the horizon. This sister event to the edition in Las Vegas has blossomed into a behemoth of its own over the past decade with an expanded footprint at Tinker Field, more stages of music, plenty of art and production elements, and of course… loads of fantastic artists.
Set to take place on November 12-14 at Tinker Field, this year’s edition is one that’s been long-awaited by headliners in the Sunshine State after the pandemic dashed its plans of happening in 2020. But Insomniac is pulling out all the stops for its return with five stages of booming beats from artists including Armin van Buuren, Seven Lions, Galantis, Kaskade, Nicole Moudaber, ZEDD, Excision, G Jones, and countless others on the lineup.
