Electric Daisy Carnival tickets for Las Vegas festival at the Speedway with EDM, camping and shuttles

Looking for tickets to Electric Daisy Carnival in Las Vegas? The festival on May 15, 2026 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway Infield brings house, techno, trance, bass and EDM acts together with stages, camping, shuttle options and an all-night open-air program

Electric Daisy Carnival in Las Vegas - the city of lights moved to the Speedway

Electric Daisy Carnival returns to the Las Vegas Motor Speedway Infield as a festival that treats electronic music not merely as a series of DJ sets, but as an entire night-time city. The 2026 edition takes place from May 15 to 17 at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway site, and the festival program framework covers three nights under the name Electric Daisy Carnival Las Vegas. For visitors with a ticket valid for 2 days, this means it is especially important to choose days and performers in advance, because the line-up is not structured as one single concert, but as a large schedule across stages, styles, and nights.

EDC differs from classic music festivals in that the space is part of the dramaturgy. Las Vegas Motor Speedway is not just an address but a stage setting: a wide infield, long approaches, huge visual elements, carnival rides, interactive installations, and stages that function as separate worlds. The 2026 festival has been announced with the theme "kineticJOURNEY", connected to 30 years of the Electric Daisy Carnival story, so the identity of this edition also relies on a journey through rave culture, house, trance, techno, bass, and modern festival EDM.

Tickets for this event are in demand. This especially applies to visitors planning to travel from outside Las Vegas, because with EDC you need to plan more than just the evening at the festival: getting to the Speedway, returning after the program ends, wristbands, identification documents, shuttle or parking, and the rhythm of sleeping between festival days.

Line-up by day - from big names to B2B encounters

The line-up for EDC Las Vegas 2026 confirms the breadth of the festival: the list includes globally known names, but also performers who target specific genre audiences. Among the names that stand out across the overall program are Armin van Buuren (Sunrise Set), Above & Beyond (Sunrise Set), The Chainsmokers, Charlotte de Witte, Fisher, John Summit, Kaskade, Martin Garrix, Peggy Gou, Steve Aoki, Tiësto, Underworld, Zedd, The Prodigy, Subtronics, Seven Lions, Solomun, Porter Robinson (DJ Set), Hardwell, Alison Wonderland, and GRiZ B2B Wooli. It is important to emphasize that EDC is not a festival of only one sound: the same weekend covers trance, big-room, house, techno, hard dance, drum and bass, dubstep, and a range of hybrid club directions.

Friday, May 15, brings a wide range from radio-recognizable names to harder club directions. The schedule includes The Chainsmokers, Charlotte de Witte, Fisher, Underworld, Porter Robinson (DJ Set), Sofi Tukker, Peggy Gou, Paul van Dyk, Cosmic Gate, Darude, I Hate Models, Eli Brown, Gareth Emery, ATLiens, Bou, Culture Shock, Joseph Capriati, and Laidback Luke B2B Chuckie. This first day shows EDC's principle well: on one side a major mainstage moment, on the other deep techno, trance memory, bass energy, and B2B encounters that are not experienced in the same way as standard solo performances.

Saturday, May 16, continues with names such as Above & Beyond (Sunrise Set), Hardwell, John Summit, Kaskade, Tiësto, Steve Aoki, Subtronics, The Prodigy, Paul Oakenfold, Sammy Virji, Sub Focus, Wax Motif, Noizu, Delta Heavy, Doctor P B2B Flux Pavilion B2B FuntCase, and Peggy Gou B2B KI/KI. The Saturday program therefore especially attracts an audience that wants to combine big melodic moments, harder bass, rave nostalgia, and the recent house sound that in recent years has been filling both clubs and main festival stages.Sunday, May 17, has its own closing weight: Armin van Buuren (Sunrise Set), Martin Garrix, Zedd, Solomun, Seven Lions, Alison Wonderland, GRiZ B2B Wooli, Vintage Culture, Tinlicker (DJ Set), Indira Paganotto, Skream, Chris Stussy, Cloonee, Dabin, Black Tiger Sex Machine, and San Holo (Wholesome Riddim Set) are among the names that will shape the final night. For visitors choosing 2 days of the festival, Sunday is often a logical candidate because it combines major closing names and diverse genre directions.

Stages as separate musical districts

EDC Las Vegas 2026 has also announced the schedule by stage, and Kinetic Field remains one of the festival's central landmarks. On that stage, among others, Above & Beyond (Sunrise Set), Armin van Buuren (Sunrise Set), The Chainsmokers, Charlotte de Witte, Fisher, GRiZ B2B Wooli, Hardwell, John Summit, Kaskade, Martin Garrix, Porter Robinson (DJ Set), Sofi Tukker, Steve Aoki, Sub Focus, Subtronics, and Zedd have been announced. This is the space for those who want the broadest festival sweep, large visuals, and performances that most often carry the main night-time energy.

But EDC is not read only through the biggest names. Part of the experience is moving between stages and entering other sounds without feeling that you have "missed" the main event. For someone the highlight will be a sunrise trance set, for someone a techno block, for someone a drum and bass transition, and for someone a B2B format in which two or three authorial signatures collide. That is why it is recommended to make a personal plan by day, but to leave enough room for accidental discoveries.Places disappear quickly. With a line-up like this, it is not enough to think only about who is playing, but also when you arrive at the location, how long it takes you to reach the first desired stage, and where you will meet your group if you split up.

Las Vegas Motor Speedway Infield - open space, long entrances, and a night-time rhythm

The festival is held at 7000 N. Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89115. Las Vegas Motor Speedway has been EDC's base since 2011, which explains why the festival logistics have been developed around a large influx of people, shuttle systems, special traffic instructions, and movement through a large open area. Unlike an indoor concert, here you arrive at a complex that requires good shoes, patience at the entrance, and a clear arrangement with your group.

The daily program does not start at the same time every day. For Friday, May 15, 2026, the listed festival time is from 5:00 PM to 5:30 AM, while Saturday and Sunday are listed from 7:00 PM to 5:30 AM. This means the experience stretches deep into the morning, so visitors traveling from hotels on the Strip or from Downtown Las Vegas need to plan the return as well, not only the arrival.

  • Venue: Las Vegas Motor Speedway, 7000 N. Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89115

  • Main festival dates: May 15, 16, and 17, 2026

  • Friday: the listed festival time is 5:00 PM - 5:30 AM

  • Saturday and Sunday: the listed festival time is 7:00 PM - 5:30 AM

  • Age rules: admission 18+, alcohol and VIP zones 21+ with a valid photo ID



Las Vegas as the host city adds another layer to the entire trip. Most visitors think about accommodation along the Strip, in Downtown, or in the festival camp, but the Speedway is north of the main tourist corridor. That is why it is important to check transportation before departure, because traffic toward the festival and the return after the music ends can be the most demanding part of the evening.

Entry, wristbands, documents, and rules of conduct

EDC uses a festival entry system with wristbands and checks, and visitors should expect a thorough inspection at the entrance. The rules mention TSA-style search, emptying pockets and bags, inspection of belongings, pat-down, and the possibility of additional checks. A valid photo ID is required for entry, and for alcohol and VIP areas the 21+ rule applies. Foreign visitors should pay special attention to documents because in certain situations a passport or U.S. ID is required.There is no daily exit and re-entry at the festival for standard visitors. This means that everything you need for the night should be thought through before entry: document, charged mobile phone, payment method, agreed meeting location, and minimal, permitted equipment. Special entry and exit rules apply to campers, so the camp should not be equated with ordinary festival entry.

A practical rule for first-time visitors: EDC does not function like an evening out at a club. Arrival, inspection, movement through the grounds, and finding a stage can take time. If one of the goals is to see a specific set, you should set off earlier and not rely on the last minute.

Transport - shuttle, carpool, and parking

The organizers strongly recommend EDC shuttles as a direct way to reach the festival entrances. The shuttle system includes security pre-check, water, and toilets at the stops, and the standard shuttle departs continuously from 6:30 PM to 11:00 PM from the listed standard stops such as World Market Center, The Rio, The Strat, and Mid-Strip. The return shuttle begins at 2:00 AM and ends 60 minutes after the music ends at Kinetic Field.For those driving themselves, the Speedway address is 7000 N. Las Vegas Blvd, and the instructions especially emphasize following festival signs and traffic officials. From the direction of the Strip, I-15 North to Exit 54, Speedway Blvd, is recommended. Las Vegas Motor Speedway also lists free parking around the complex, but EDC weekend is not a typical day at the Speedway: crowds, closures, and special traffic lanes can change the arrival experience.

Carpool is especially useful because it reduces the number of vehicles and shortens the time spent in traffic. If you are coming from Downtown Las Vegas, the instructions point to Las Vegas Blvd northbound, with special entry points such as Gate 3 on Las Vegas Blvd and Gate 16 on Hollywood Blvd, with the note that you should follow signs and on-site instructions.

It is worth securing tickets on time, but it is equally worth securing a return plan. After 5:30 AM, transport decisions become more important than they seem while you are still in the hotel.

Camp EDC, Hotel EDC, and additional festival content

EDC is not limited only to stages. Camp EDC includes Moon Glow ShiftPod Camping, Desert Rose ShiftPod Camping, and RV Camping. Moon Glow brings a pre-set ShiftPod, Desert Rose adds beds, bedding, and pillows, while RV Camping enables a stay in your own RV vehicle with options such as power hookups, water refills, and pump-out services. The heart of the camp is called The Mesa, a space designed as a center of activities, entertainment, and amenities for campers during the weekend.

On the festival side of the offer, locker rentals, carnival rides, games, interactive art installations, EDC Weddings, Electric Sky Festival Helicopter Rides, Salvage City Supper Club, and VIP zones are also mentioned. A locker can be very practical because it enables storing smaller items and charging a mobile phone, and at a large festival it can also serve as an easy-to-remember meeting point.

Ticket types differ by experience. GA provides entry to the festival grounds, access to sound arenas, art installations, rides, and games. GA+ adds expedited, separate entry and access to premium restroom trailers. VIP - Elevated Experience includes faster entry, elevated viewing deck areas, lounge zones, special dance areas, additional food and drink options, and VIP-only activities, with the 21+ age rule for entry into VIP zones.

The audience and the first arrival - how to read EDC

The EDC audience is a mix of electronic music fans, festival travelers, the rave community, costumed visitors, club-curious guests, and people for whom Las Vegas is part of a broader weekend trip. For first-time visitors, the most important thing is not to try to "beat" the festival. Too many stages, too many names, and too much distance can easily turn the night into a race. It is better to choose a few must-see sets, a few possible alternatives, and one safe meeting point.

The atmosphere is strongest when you accept that EDC is not linear. There is not only one main moment of the evening. One visitor will remember sunrise with trance, another will talk about a techno set in a denser, darker zone, a third about the bass stage, a fourth about a ride and the view of the entire illuminated infield. It is precisely this combination of music, light, movement, and open space that distinguishes Electric Daisy Carnival from festivals that rely only on headliners.

Ticket sales for this event are ongoing. For visitors with a 2-day ticket, the smartest thing is to compare the daily schedules: Friday has a strong combination of The Chainsmokers, Charlotte de Witte, Fisher, Underworld, and Porter Robinson (DJ Set); Saturday carries Above & Beyond, Hardwell, John Summit, Kaskade, Tiësto, Steve Aoki, and The Prodigy; Sunday closes the weekend with Armin van Buuren, Martin Garrix, Zedd, Solomun, Seven Lions, and GRiZ B2B Wooli.

Short guide for planning a festival evening

Before departure, check your festival wristband, photo ID, and transport. If you use a shuttle, check the stop and departure time. If you drive, do not rely only on navigation, but follow traffic instructions and signs. If you are in a group, arrange a meeting place that does not depend on a mobile signal, because large festivals often overload the network.

For the evening itself, a simple order applies: arrive earlier, pass the inspection without rushing, first locate the basic points - toilets, water, exit, locker, or agreed location - and only then head toward the stages. EDC is a festival where the best moments often happen between two planned performances, but they are easiest to reach when logistics and basic needs have already been handled.

Culture & events desk

The editorial team for arts, music and events brings together journalists and volunteers who have spent years living alongside stages, clubs, festivals and all those spaces where art and audience meet. Our writing comes from long-standing journalistic experience and genuine involvement in cultural life: from endless evenings in concert halls, from conversations with musicians before and after performances, from improvised press corners at festivals, from premieres that end with long discussions in theatre corridors, but also from small, intimate events that attract only a handful of curious people yet remain engraved in their memory for a lifetime.

In our newsroom write people who know what a stage looks like when the lights go out, how the audience breathes while waiting for the first note, and what happens behind the curtain while instruments or microphones are still being adjusted. Many of us have spent years standing on stage ourselves, participating in programme organisation, volunteering at festivals or helping artist friends present their projects. This experience from both sides of the stage gives us the ability to view events not merely as items in a calendar, but as living encounters between creators and audiences.

Our stories do not stop at who performed and how many people attended. We are interested in the processes that precede every appearance before the public: how the idea for a concert or festival is born, what it takes for a comedy to reach its audience, how much time is spent preparing an exhibition or a multimedia project. In our texts we try to convey the atmosphere of the space, the energy of the performers and the mood of the audience, as well as the context in which all this happens – why a certain performance is important, how it fits into the broader music or art scene, and what remains after the venue empties.

The editorial team for arts, music and events builds its credibility on persistence and long-term work. Behind us are decades of writing, editing, talking with artists and observing how scenes change, how some styles come to the forefront while others retreat into the background. This experience helps us distinguish fleeting hype from events that truly push boundaries and leave a mark. When we give something space, we strive to explain why we believe it deserves attention, and when we are critical, we explain our reasons, aware of the effort behind every project.

Our task is simple and demanding at the same time: to be reliable witnesses of cultural and entertainment life, to write honestly toward the audience and honestly toward performers. We do not deal in generic praise; we aim to precisely describe what we see and hear, knowing that every text may be someone’s first encounter with a certain band, festival, comedian or artist. The editorial team for arts, music and events therefore exists as a place where all these encounters are recorded, interpreted and passed on – humanly, clearly and with respect for the very reason it exists at all: the live, real event in front of a real audience.
