EDC is one of the premier music festivals in the world and a top electronic dance music (EDM) festival. EDC originated as a one day festival in Southern California but as expansions took place it relocated to a larger venue in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA. With over 350,000 participants it is the largest music festival in the world. Its size and popularity has allowed it to attract the top Disk Jockeys (DJs) in the EDM genre every year. EDC has since become a recognizable brand name and expanded to host festivals in major cities all around the United States and Mexico.
