Insomniac has filled in what happens between the two EDC Las Vegas weekends next May. The 12 Days of EDC: Dusk Till Dawn runs May 13 to 24, 2027, wrapped around EDC Dusk (May 14 to 16) and EDC Dawn (May 21 to 23) at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, with events spilling into warehouses, clubs and galleries across the city.
When Insomniac split the festival into two weekends back in May, the middle stretch was the open question. Now there's a plan, and a lot of it costs nothing. In a letter on the festival site, Pasquale Rotella wrote that "some will be ticketed, but a lot of what we're creating will be completely free and open to our community."
Here's what's on the list so far:
- World Party Parade, the free all-ages daytime parade that debuted in 2026, comes back
- Opening and closing parties around each weekend, plus warehouse events, club nights and pop-ups
- Map Point Summit, a new industry and rave community gathering at Hotel EDC
- The first Insomniac Concept Store, free all 12 days, with meet-and-greets, surprise DJ sets, merch and a vinyl shop
- Beyond the Rave, a free art show at Hotel EDC for the full run
- A marketplace for fashion, records and artwork, Tuesday through Thursday at Hotel EDC
- Camp EDC for all 12 days, with wellness sessions, workshops, a retro arcade, live painting and late-night parties
Hotel EDC at Virgin Hotels Las Vegas also keeps its pool parties and afterparties. Rotella said the idea is to "expand the EDC experience beyond the festival weekends."
No 2027 lineup has been announced, and Insomniac still hasn't said how programming will differ between Dusk and Dawn. Schedules and tickets for the individual events are due closer to May.
Festival passes for Dusk, Dawn or both return to sale Thursday, October 8 at 12pm PT at lasvegas.edc.com.
