Megarave Set Times: Electric Daisy Carnival (Fri & Sat)
The Talent at EDC 2009 | Photo by Drew "Rukes" Ressler (website | LAist Galleries ) / used with permission
North America's largest electronic dance music festival, the Electric Daisy Carnival, returns to Los Angeles this Friday and Saturday at the Coliseum and Exposition Park. Both days feature twelve hours of fun (2 p.m. to 2 a.m.) Last year's event featured 135,000 people over both days and this weekend looks to be more of the same.
Unlike last year's all ages event, this year's multi-stage festival is restricted to those above 16. Check out LAist's 2009 EDC photo galleries here and here. The EDC website has a FAQ, should you have any questions.
Set times are subject to change (due to DJ travel issue, or DJ ecstasy issues.)
