Just over two weeks from now, Electric Daisy Carnival will return to Citi Field in Flushing, Queens after holding the last two “New York” events at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey. Experienced EDC attendees often point to the 2013 edition as the the festival’s worst output since Insomniac brought EDC to the tri-state area in 2012. Despite the less than excellent reviews in 2013, this time around at Citi Field is shaping up to be a different festival experience entirely. Back in November, Pasquale Rotella announced in an interview that they have access to 300,000 more square feet that they did not have in 2013, and now they have announced incredible new offerings for VIP attendees.

Some of the highlights of the new VIP program include viewing decks above all the stages, food trucks, full bars, yard games, a ball pit, art offerings and most important of all, complimentary water stations. You can check out the map of the VIP section as well as full descriptions of all the special attractions that will be available for VIPs, and get ready for Electric Daisy Carnival to make a triumphant return to Citi Field on May 14th and 15th!
