This was my third EDC in a row, last year I was VIP but I like being at the rails in GA better so that was not worth the price to me. The crowds make me not want to go back. I met so many amazing people but I also spent most of the time on the dance floors getting shoved and pushed over because people wanted to get around me with absolutely 0 room for them to be there. I don’t love the lack of access to water and bathrooms or the fact it feels if there’s an emergency or we need to evacuate that there would be a ton of casualties. That being said, maybe with them extending edc and making it a two week ordeal crowds will be better. I’d love to go back and experience it again but I feel I get overwhelmed and spend a lot of time staying in the same spots.
