Electric Daisy Carnival Las Vegas is the flagship edition of the world's most attended dance music festival series, held each May at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway with over 170,000 ravers per night across three nights. The festival is celebrated for its awe-inspiring stage production, carnival rides, and a non-stop lineup of the biggest names in electronic music. Las Vegas hotels on the iconic Strip serve as the primary base for EDC attendees, and availability tightens considerably in the weeks before the event.
Our Picks — Las Vegas
The Strip
All-suite luxury on the Strip with a hand-painted ceiling canal, Marcello Mastroianni-style gondoliers, and some of the largest standard rooms in Vegas at 650 sq ft. Canyon Ranch Spa and a stacked dining lineup including Yardbird and Matteo's make it genuinely hard to leave the property.
The Strip
The benchmark for Strip luxury, famous for its 8-acre dancing fountains and the Conservatory's spectacular seasonal botanical displays. Rooms in the Spa Tower are among the most polished in the city, and its restaurant roster — Picasso, Le Cirque, Prime — remains unmatched.
The Strip
Steve Wynn's masterpiece remains the gold standard for Vegas refinement — understated compared to its neighbors, with curved towers, a man-made lake, and interiors that feel genuinely residential. The all-day pool club and Lakeside seafood restaurant are perennial favourites.
The Strip
Las Vegas's most tech-forward resort, with rooms controlled entirely by a tablet and curved floor-to-ceiling windows framing Strip panoramas. The central CityCenter location, three pools, and an art collection featuring Maya Lin and Henry Moore elevate it above typical megaResort fare.
The Strip
The hippest address on the Strip, beloved for its terraces (actual outdoor balconies are rare in Vegas), the subterranean Wicked Spoon buffet, and The Henry cocktail bar. Its two towers sit directly above the Bellagio fountains, making corner terrace rooms feel like personal box seats.
The Strip
The most design-conscious of the MGM portfolio, with a smoke-free casino, artwork by Shepard Fairey, and NoMad Hotel occupying the top four floors. Its Eataly food hall and the intimate Dolby Live concert venue have made it a cultural anchor at the south end of the Strip.
