Insomniac Events founder and CEO Pasquale Rotella has formally unveiled the first-ever EDC World Party Parade.
In a social media post shared today, Rotella officially confirmed details for the electronic music parade, which will shut down the Las Vegas Strip with a procession of over 30 art cars, “moving renegade sound systems,” and hundreds of performers on Thursday, May 14—the day before EDC’s 30th anniversary edition begins.
The event is free and open to the public. All ages are welcome, with “P.L.U.R. strictly enforced,” according to the flyer. Check it out below.
“World Party Parade is unlike anything we’ve done before. Bringing people together to celebrate dance music culture right on the Las Vegas Strip through a music parade is something we’ve dreamed about for a long time,” Rotella wrote. “We want to share this powerful culture with everyone, especially those experiencing it for the first time. There’s something transformative about it. It’s therapeutic, it brings people together, and it has the power to positively impact lives.”
His statement continued in part: “This is about giving back to the culture, to the community, and to the city of Vegas, which has been such an important part of our journey.”
Insomniac’s flagship EDC Las Vegas will celebrate 30 years when it returns to the Las Vegas Motor Speedway with performances from 200 top DJs from May 15-17.
