Insomniac's 30th-anniversary kineticJOURNEY: dusk-till-dawn under the electric sky with Martin Garrix, Charlotte de Witte and The Prodigy leading 200+ artists.
EDC Las Vegas 2026 has already wrapped, but you can still dig through the lineup and find the acts you would have loved.
Name a few bands you love and we'll scout all 50 acts on the EDC Las Vegas bill for the ones you shouldn't miss.
EDC turned 30 in 2026, and Insomniac themed the anniversary kineticJOURNEY: three dusk-till-dawn nights at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway, the biggest dance-music event in North America. Martin Garrix, Charlotte de Witte, The Prodigy, Tiësto and Armin van Buuren topped the names we track, a headline row that runs from big-room pop to acid techno to actual rave-punk played by a band.
The 2026 bill caught every current in dance music at once: the hard-techno wave at full strength (Sara Landry, I Hate Models, 999999999), the house wing (Chris Lake, FISHER, John Summit, Peggy Gou), UK bass and garage (Sub Focus, Sammy Virji, Interplanetary Criminal, Bou), the GRIZTRONICS reunion b2b, and genuine legends. Underworld playing 'Born Slippy' at a speedway is the kind of booking only EDC makes.
Expect techno, electronic, house and trance across 50 acts.
Search it, filter by day, stage or genre.
