Are you still thinking about expanding EDC Vegas to two weekends? Absolutely I would think about that. I go back and forth about it. I’m going to reconsider it after this year and see how it goes. But it’s something that makes a lot of sense in regards to doing a crazy production, because you can spread the production costs over two weekends and really make things make sense. It’s hard to make these budgets make sense. People think that everyone’s getting rich off it, but it’s very difficult; it’s very expensive. Two weekends would help us to do even maybe a little more. I think it’s good enough, but there are people who want to go who can’t go. I don’t know if two weekends is too big, but I’m going to feel it out coming out of this year.
With over 400,000 people in attendance at this year’s EDC over the course of three days, and a BOOMING economic impact on Las Vegas, a second weekend doesn’t seem like such an improbable thing. Rotella admitted that the idea is not a lost cause, and now we can only hope that the idea becomes a reality, strictly because the sold-out event deserves to have as many goers as possible to experience the magic that Insomniac brings us, every single year.
