The Destination

EDC Orlando runs from 1 p.m. – 12 a.m. daily, which leaves you with a lot of potential free time. Our events calendar can help fill that gap — including the official EDC preparty (Nov. 7) and afterparties (Nov. 8, Nov. 9 & Nov. 10). Of course, with so much to see and do in Orlando, why limit yourself to three days?

Discover: Things to Do

Our nightlife is worth an extra day in itself, including themed bars, furtive speakeasies, live music and more. Meanwhile, foodies will want to experience Orlando’s diverse dining, which includes MICHELIN Guide restaurants plus celebrity chefs and award-winning local favorites. No matter where the party takes you, Insta-worthy food and beverages are nearby.

Discover: Food & Dining

Some of our best dining and nightlife can be found in authentic neighborhoods that start in the downtown area and extend out to nearby cities. These hidden-gem communities also feature out-of-this-world art, cultural celebrations, outdoor fun for everyone and many other ways to play.

Discover: Orlando Neighborhoods

Speaking of play, we’re not known as the Theme Park Capital of the World for nothing. Walt Disney World® Resort, SeaWorld® Orlando, Universal Orlando Resort and LEGOLAND® Florida Resort are all within easy driving distance of downtown, with world-famous theme parks, water parks, entertainment districts and more to explore. Throw in our standalone attractions, outdoor fun for every thrill level, and other things to do, and it’s pretty much impossible to run out of magic while you’re here.

The Music

More than 100 EDM artists will perform at EDC Orlando 2024 — not to mention the most back-to-back (b2b) sets in the history of the EDC brand. They include Amémé b2b HoneyLuv, Carl Cox b2b Vintage Culture, Deorro b2b Timmy Trumpet, Dillon Francis b2b Disco Lines, Kaskade b2b Alison Wonderland, Matroda b2b Wax Motif, and Oliver Heldens b2b Benny Benassi, among others.

Everything Else

The “carnival” part of EDC Orlando’s name is no gimmick. The festival is an oversize playground with fun attractions, starting with the iconic Ferris wheel. Each ride offers the chance to experience EDC from a brand-new perspective — and have a blast while you’re at it.

EDC Orlando also presents a world of three-dimensional superstructures, glow-in-the-dark environments, and a galaxy of LED-infused flora and fauna. You’ll find these interactive art installations throughout the festival grounds.

And don’t forget about EDC Orlando’s Funkdafied Freaks — aka dancers, stilt-walkers, aerialists, circus performers and other whimsical characters decked out in over-the-top costumes. You never know where this motley crew of merrymakers will show up, but you can bank on enchanting, astounding antics when they do.

There you have it, your guide to EDC Orlando 2024. We will see you there!
