    Thank you both for this video! My first EDC Orlando. I usually solo rolling loud Miami but I got bored of doing the same thing. Had some friends who went out to EDC last year, impulsively bought a ticket for this year. And first thing made me remember my last camelbak broke I need a new one 😅

      Glad we can help! We always watch CZcams videos on rolling loud, but never attended 😅. EDC is a lot of fun, it’s smaller compared to Vegas, but still fun. Definitely don’t forget that camelback, it’s going to save you in the end lol. Thank you for tuning in! We hope to see you all out there 😁

    Thank you for the video! I especially love the parking info. Last year I spent 1:45min waiting to get to a main road. Do those area in green (per your map) have paid parking--on lawns and driveways like they do closer to the field?

    • @KnightsTreks
      @KnightsTreks  Před 9 měsíci

      Yes. Those areas are still going to be “unofficial” parking in people’s lawns and in business parking lots turned into paid parking for EDC. It will be a little cheaper the further out you get. If you’re wanting to park in a garage downtown, there’s some info at this link | orlando.electricdaisycarnival.com/travel/parking/ | They work with Lynx (Orlando’s bus system) to offer extended travel hours and complimentary travel through the Grapefruit line of buses.

    Also on top of having meeting spots I was thinking of using Airtags with my friends and sharing our location throughout the festival. Have you tried this and if so did it work?

    • @KnightsTreks
      @KnightsTreks  Před 9 měsíci +1

      We couldn’t get signal long enough to use our track location feature on our iPhones so we’re very skeptical about being able to use air tags. Give it a try though! Especially if you are in VIP and have access to the Wi-Fi

      It is like Woodstock but with Electronic Dance Music. Although the production value is very high for the festival. I was very impressed with EDC Vegas and although EDC Orlando is like the little sister to Vegas, I can tell from videos it's just as well produced. I'm so excited to go this year!

    To get to the front of the crowd, do you need a vip pass ? Or is it just about being there early

    Wait are any walkie talkies allowed or do you need certain ones? Im asking because I know security, tech crews, stagehands, etc all have radios

      It’s extremely risky but necessary for drinks and VIP. Please get a running belt or something similar to put under your shirt with the zipper towards your body.

      Yes, but walk a few blocks away from the stadium so you can actually get some signal. Your wait time will also be less if you’re not waiting exactly where everyone else is

    Hi I’ll be there. Love going to music festivals. It is my 5th EDCO. As a person that goes to a lot of festivals, this was a great video. Very informative. I agree with how expensive everything is inside. My friend and I eat before we get there and may buy one drink inside. We usually eat after the event as well. Hopefully I’ll see you both there. I usually buy a shuttle pass because you don’t have to worry about where to park and chose a shuttle stop at the hotel I’m staying at.

    • @KnightsTreks

      We don’t have any signal once we’re inside. Probably because 150,000 people are trying to use the same cell towers. And it’s so easy to lose your group. So walkies it is!

      Parking garages downtown and make the trek over. They have the most parking available and you don’t risk getting blocked in by someone parking cars behind each other looking to make the most money from their side yard turned parking lot.
