EDC Orlando Hotel brought a whole new experience to EDC weekend. Whether it was the late night afters, the daytime pool parties, or the numerous daily activities offered, Headliners found themselves more immersed into the EDC world than they ever have before!
EDC Hotel made its way to Orlando this year for EDC weekend and it was everything Headliners have been asking for! EDC Orlando Hotel was held at Margaritaville Resort and was transformed into a ravers paradise for four days. These four days were packed with stunning afters, pool parties, numerous daily activities, and more. Somehow, it felt hard to experience everything in four days because of how much was offered to the Headliners. From the beautiful rooms that were swagged out EDC style, the hotel being transformed into an aesthetic EDC vibe, and EDC swag bags, Headliners found themselves smiling ear to ear all weekend (aka I was losing my mind because I was so happy).
Now, let’s talk about these afters because O M G! EDC Orlando Hotel brought a whole new vibe to the term afters this past weekend. Headliners were transported into a mini festival every single night. From the outside stage, sound system, and overall production, Headliners felt like they were attending a whole different festival late into the night. Not to mention, the stunning pre-party and afters lineup. Some honorable mentions from this past weekend include CELO, DRINKURWATER, Levity, Alleycvt, Kai Wachi, Jon Casey, YDG, Svdden Death, Jkyl & Hyde, and many more. There was not a minute you wanted to miss during the pre-party and EDC afters because every artist brought out their best set and curated the best vibes for every Headliner! I have seen a lot of sets before but I can honestly say the EDC Orlando Hotel afters were some of the BEST sets I have seen from the artists. Everyone was so happy, excited, and such a vibe.
Besides the afters and pre-parties, EDC Orlando Hotel offered many other daily activities and amenities. During the day Headliners could visit the beautiful pool to take a dip and cool off while listening to some music! The hotel also had other activities such as yoga and even had a Headliner HQ with many great spots for Headliners to visit. In Headliner HQ, you could build your own totem, make kandi, stock up on essentials, get your hair braided, and get the glitter treatment before your day at EDC Orlando began! Headliner HQ was an awesome spot to relax and the whole hotel had spacious themed spots where Headliners could cozy up in their robes and debrief about the night before. There were many different spots to grab a quick bite or sit down for a whole meal with your rave fam. The onsite shuttles taking you to and from the festival eased Headliners minds when it came to safe travels to and from the festival for the weekend. Not to mention there was also an official Insomniac Shop on site where Headliners could go and shop some of the official merch of the weekend! Truly, every single detail was thought out and served up to Headliners on a silver platter.
EDC Orlando Hotel really had it all. It felt like an EDC wonderland every time you walked in. I don’t know about you but I really LOVE being fully immersed into the festival world whenever I have a festival weekend. If you’re looking for a way to really immerse yourself into the world of EDC with other Headliners, this is the spot to be. I can’t wait to see what the future holds for EDC Orlando Hotel! Until next time! XOXO, Ash <3
