Everything You Need to Know about Virtual EDC
EDC Las Vegas 2020 is hosting a 'Virtual Rave-A-Thon' on the weekend of May 15

Without COVID-19, hundreds of thousands of people would be making their way to Las Vegas for the three-day festival this weekend. With EDC Las Vegas currently postponed to weekend of October 2, many people are bummed about the lack of weekend plans. No need to worry though! Virtual EDC will be happening this weekend in place of the physical festival.

This virtual live stream will begin this Friday, May 15 at 5 pm PDT and continue until 2 am PDT. The festival will end on Sunday, May 17, at 2 am PDT, concluding a weekend of amazing music.
Virtual EDC Lineup
Kaskade, Afrojack, Benny Benassi, and David Guetta will be joined by many other artists. NGHTMRE will also be going b2b with Ghastly, for a set that no one should miss.
