Now a global brand with numerous festival locations worldwide – such as Tokyo or Miami – EDC is an unmissable must-attend for anyone wanting to experience top electronic dance music at its finest.
At its founding, EDC was a small warehouse party held in Los Angeles. It was founded by Pasquale Rotella, an Italian immigrant who had grown up working at restaurants or washing dishes.
After numerous unsuccessful raves, Rotella and his partners launched the first Electronic Dance Carnival (EDC) in 1997 at Shrine Expo Hall in Los Angeles. To their astonishment, this event became a huge success; by 2008, more than 150,000 attendees were attending each year.

The festival is known for its massive crowds and is the ideal destination for any New Year’s edm lover. The lineups typically feature some of the biggest names in electronic dance music, including Martin Garrix, Avicii, Armin van Buuren and David Guetta.

Though Tomorrowland has become one of the largest and most sought-after new years EDM festivals, its origins don’t lie there. The first edition was held on August 14, 2005, with only 10,000 attendees.
Today, the festival boasts an audience of over 400,000 attendees and has significantly impacted the Belgian economy. Estimates suggest it will generate $120 million in revenue for the region.

The festival organizers have also successfully decreased noise complaints from nearby communities.

Utilizing Autosolvers tools within Soundvision, they achieved more even SPL coverage and more headroom – essential elements of an EDM experience.
