What: Ultra Music Festival
When: March 28-30, 2014
Where: Miami, FL
Downtown Miami has been bumpin’ since 1999 with the Ultra Music Festival at the Bayfront Park. With over 330,000 in attendance at last year’s outdoor bash, Ultra is ramping up for another mind-blowing festival with headliners like Afrojack, Zedd, Armin Van Buuren, and Kaskade. Did we mention the unreal ocean view? If you’re itching for a more global experience, Ultra Buenos Aires (February 21-22) and Ultra Japan (September 27-28) are also happening this year. It’s never too early to book your flights.
What: Electronic Daisy Carnival (EDC)
When: June 20-22, 2014
Where: Las Vegas, NV
The world’s largest and most renown festival of EDM culture, EDC is the perfect destination for first-timers and old-timers alike. Living up to its name, EDC boasts carnival rides, theatrical and dance performances, interactive art installations, and of course, we’ll be expecting a killer lineup this year. In addition to the O.G. festival at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway, EDC will also be taking place in Mexico (March 15-16), New York (May 24-25), London, Puerto Rico, and Orlando (dates TBD) this year - you know, in case you wanted to go for round two. Or three. Or six.
What: Paradiso Festival
When: June 28-29, 2014
Where: George, WA
If you haven’t experienced the summertime in the Pacific Northwest, you’ve truly been missing out. The temperature is always just right, and it’s quite literally a breath of fresh air. Paradiso takes place at the Gorge Amphitheater, a natural venue about 2.5 hours out from Seattle, WA with a stunning view overlooking the Columbia River. It currently takes the cake as the largest EDM event in the PNW, complete with amusement park rides, art installations, and some pretty wild theatrics. If you’re looking for a real getaway and electrifying festival experience, Paradiso is it.
What: Tomorrowland
When: July 18-20 and July 25-27, 2014
Where: De Schorre, Boom, Belgium
If you’re feeling extra adventurous, eurotrip your way over to Belgium for Tomorrowland, the world’s mecca of EDM festivals is happening for two weekends in July. The lineup has yet to be announced, but with bigwigs like Tiësto, Steve Aoki, Avicii, and David Guetta on last year’s roster, you can bet it won’t disappoint. 10 years in the making and topping 180,000 in attendance in 2013, Tomorrowland is a vibrant and fascinating place that will delight all your senses.
