“Over the whole weekend about 250,000 people attended the dance festival. There were arrests made but no major problems from a festival with a huge crowd. There had been concerns because of incidents at past events including the death of a 15-year-old girl at the festival held in Los Angeles last year. About 80,000 people attended the festival Sunday night but there were only 14 misdemeanor arrests, six felony arrests and one traffic citation.”

This is actually good to read. As I stated before, due to the incidents of the last EDC in Los Angeles, this event was under great scrutiny and I’m sure having it in Vegas just heightened the microscope that this event was under. Knowing that, overall, it did very well for itself and the tourism for Las Vegas says that this event may have found itself a new home.

Oh and that photo was one I took at my very first experience at the Electric Daisy Carnival in 2008. I still think that couple was awesome!
