Camp EDC 2025 Party and Activity Schedules, Maps, and More

Are you ready for a magical experience at The Mesa during Camp EDC this year? We’ve compiled all the information you need before heading to Vegas!

EDC Las Vegas is coming up quickly, and the party at Camp EDC is looking to be one of the best ways to experience the festival this year. Insomniac will once again transform the grounds just outside of the Las Vegas Motor Speedway into a dance music lover’s home away from home, offering those who want to stay on-site the chance to be just a stone’s throw away from the festival itself. From May 15-19, those staying at Camp EDC will be treated to everything from daily activities and performances to other activations and more.

The party starts on Thursday as Headliners begin to flock to Camp EDC. That day will feature a variety of activities and the official Homecoming Party, which will see artists like Mochakk, DJ Gigola, MCR-T, and more take the stage. From that point on, each day offers pool parties curated by Insomniac Records and Bassrush that will help keep you cool while you’re shaking your tailfeather and afters for when you return from EDCLV to keep dancing until the sun is up.

To help you get prepped for the weekend, we’ve compiled all the information you need to know before you go. Read on for the Camp EDC essentials, and if you see us while you’re there, make sure to say hi if you see us bumping around The Mesa!

Reminder To Mind Your Belongings:

Unfortunately, during this festival season, many 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 partygoers, and it’s essential to be mindful of your valuables while at Camp EDC.
