What the 12-day Camp EDC pass gets you at EDC Las Vegas 2027

Camp EDC can be your base for all 12 days of EDC Las Vegas 2027's Dusk Till Dawn format. We cover tiers, nights, prices, RV power rules and what happens between weekends, drawn from Insomniac's official EDC Las Vegas pages and local reporting.

Should you buy EDC Dusk, Dawn or both weekends in 2027?

EDC Las Vegas 2027 splits into two lower-capacity weekends at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, EDC Dusk (May 14-16) and EDC Dawn (May 21-23). With no lineup yet, the choice comes down to dates, what the two-weekend pass saved at launch, and whether Camp EDC and the 12 Days of EDC programming tempt you to stay.

Missing a set you wanted is part of a good festival weekend

Trying to beat every schedule clash usually buys you a weekend of walking and half-sets. Decision research, task-switching studies and fan-compiled Glastonbury walking times point the same way: choose on purpose and let the other set go.
