Parking
For those opting to drive to EDC, general parking is FREE. The biggest lots are the Brown and Green lots, located on the west and south sides, and are accessible via Las Vegas Boulevard. Lots open at 3:00 PM on Friday, and 5:00PM on Saturday and Sunday.
Those with premier parking passes will take I-15 North to Exit 58 at Apex then turn RIGHT on N Las Vegas Blvd. There will be signs guiding to the yellow lot/premier parking, and attendees will turn RIGHT again into Entrance #9 for the yellow lot. There is one way and one way only to get to this lot. Do not attempt another way. Premier parking hours are the same as GA parking.
ADA parking will also take I-15 North to Exit 58 at Apex, and turn right on N Las Vegas Boulevard. ADA Parking will be located at Entrance 8.
The following activities are not permitted in the parking lots:
- Tailgating
- Sleeping in your vehicle
- Buying/selling tickets
- Vandalism, loitering, or other illegal behavior
- Drinking alcohol
- Illegal drug use
If you plan on driving, please be aware of long wait times to get in and out of the parking lots. Consider arriving early and leaving the festival early. We also suggest stocking the car with extra water and snacks for the post-festival drive, as you may be waiting in traffic for a while.
Rideshare
Demand is very high for rideshare during EDC. Those opting to take one should expect longer wait times, surge pricing, and even unavailability. We HIGHLY suggest planning ahead, reserving in advance, and having a contingency plan, especially at the beginning and end of the festival. Taxis will also be available in addition to rideshare.
Those arriving via rideshare or taxi will be dropped off and picked up at the designated guest pick up/drop off spot, in the middle of the brown lot. Approach Las Vegas Motor Speedway from I-15 North, via E. Tropical Parkway exit and follow the signs for the Rideshare/Taxi/Pick Up & Drop-Off lot. This is a new exit off the I-15 that is exclusively for rideshare options, and there is no parking available off Tropical Parkway.
For safety, attendees MUST be dropped off in the designated drop-off area. There will be no walking down Las Vegas Boulevard to the speedway, and this will be enforced by Las Vegas Metro PD and Highway Patrol.

With nine featured main stages, art cars, smaller stages, and more, there’s not a second of music to miss all weekend long!

Weather
The weather is shaping up to be in the 80s-90s while the sun is up, and dipping into the 60s and potentially high 50s by Monday morning. There is always the possibility of winds, which will make it feel chillier than the predicted temperature. Pack an extra layer or pashmina!
