Insomniac Events CEO Pasquale Rotella never ceases to amaze with his ability to push the envelope and EDC Las Vegas 2016 should be no different.
With the rave community still buzzing over an incredible Nocturnal Wonderland, Pasquale is riding the wave. Celebrating 20 years underneath the electric sky, the Electric Daisy Carnival mastermind has taken to Twitter to announce the official dates for EDC Las Vegas 2016 in addition to when tickets will be going on sale.
The mecca of all things electronic dance music will officially return to the Las Vegas Motor Speedway from Friday, June 17 through Sunday, June 19, 2016.
Says the King of the Nightowls:
I’m still buzzing off the energy that all you beautiful Headliners created under the starry skies at Nocturnal, and I’m excited to announce some news about another special celebration. Tickets for EDC Las Vegas 2016—our 20th Anniversary—will go on sale Monday, September 21st at 12pm PT. In the past, ticket sales have started at various time periods. This year would be one of the earliest.
Why, you ask?
One of the reasons is that this summer, Nevada lawmakers signed a bill that amended the city’s Live Entertainment Tax, which has been in place since 2004 but never applied to EDC. Now it does, and it’s going to affect not just us but friends like Burning Man, too. What the change creates is basically a 9% tax on the price of admission for all tickets sold starting on October 1st, which is why we’re giving you the opportunity to buy tickets before that date. I know how much you guys sacrifice and save to make it out to EDC every year, and it’s important for me to give you as many options as possible this year. I want you all with us as we celebrate 20 Years Under the Electric Sky! […]
