Insomniac Unveils Hosted Stage Lineups for
Electric Daisy Carnival Las Vegas 2018
Bassrush, Basscon, Dreamstate, HARD, Factory 93 and Insomniac Records will all host stages at EDC Las Vegas 2018
Today, Insomniac has announced the six acclaimed dance music brands returning to host stages at the 22nd edition of Electric Daisy Carnival Las Vegas, North America’s largest dance music festival. Bassrush, Basscon, Dreamstate, HARD, Factory 93 and Insomniac Records will host six stages during the three-day festival, taking place May 18 – 20 at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway. As Headliners are invited on a dazzling new adventure that pays tribute to the movements behind dance music, each festival stage will celebrate a dedicated dance music genre including hardstyle, trance, techno, bass music, house and a variety of electro sounds. Each EDC Las Vegas stage creates a unique, immersive experience for Headliners as they listen to world-class performances from their favorite acts while being introduced to new artists along the way.
For the first time since 2014, HARD will host cosmicMEADOW, bringing a fusion of electronic music styles with a refreshing focus on the sounds of rap and hip-hop. Insomniac’s premier hardstyle music brand, Basscon, will take over wasteLAND, creating a massive new scenic destination featuring Insomniac’s iconic, graffiti art freight containers. Drum & bass, trap and dubstep fans won’t have to travel far, with this year’s newly designed bassPOD hosted by Bassrush, Insomniac’s dedicated bass music brand.
