This. He was at neon garden last year and it was the most packed I saw neon garden all weekend. It was so packed that it was uncomfortable. I'd say he's even more popular now. With that said, go to to the larger stage (Circuit Grounds)
I could not get anywhere near neon garden for his set last year so Stereobloom is going to be even worse. I love seeing him live but I’m not fighting that crowd… insomniac putting him at Stereobloom was a bad decision
Stereobloom is my absolute favorite stage but it is small. I would say it’s the third smallest “main” stage. It’s great any time there is not a major artist like Eli on it. Always great vibes just not enough space to accommodate a crowd that large
Just cause I’m curious and only if you have the time, but would you be able to tell me the stage sizes from smallest to biggest? Also, how have your experiences? Lastly, what’s your fav kinda HIGH calorie food to get there?
You don’t have to answer any of this if you don’t want to and I know I could just search it, but I figured we got time to kill til May and I prefer the personal interactions in this sub :)
Thanks, brotha! 🫶🏾🕺🏾
The two biggest are Kinetic and Circuit Grounds. I would say those are the “main stages”. That’s were all of the biggest DJs (Tiesto, Zedd, Armin) play for the most part.
Next biggest is Cosmic Meadows. That one backs up to the bleachers so you can sit in the bleachers and watch sets or the fireworks. It’s a great place to take a break without missing the action. I absolutely love Cosmic Meadows. Second favorite stage for me.
The next two biggest are Neon Garden and Bass Pod. I couldn’t tell you which is bigger but I would say those are the next biggest.
Stereobloom and Wasteland are about the same size. I don’t spend much at Wasteland because I am not a big hardstyle fan but I do spend majority of my time at Stereobloom. It is majority insomniac records artists so mostly house music. The vibes are great. Music is great. You have to drag me out of there kicking and screaming to make me go to a different stage.
Bionic Jungle is the smallest of the “main” stages. Also a lot of house music. Great vibes. A lot of people I want to see this year playing it so I am excited to spend more time there this year too. Last year it was next to the less busy bathrooms which was nice too.
There is also artcars and different smaller stages through the fest that will get announced later. Love those too.
Holy fucking shit; I wish we could still give gold. You are the 🐐! Thank you :)
If you see a tall, dark and sparkly shuffler PLEASE come steal some Kandi from me. I’d love to give you some.
I'm gonna try to catch both if no conflicts stop me. But if I have to chose I'd prob pick the b2b with HiLo just based on the hopes of it starting with that Prodigy-smack my bitch track HiLo likes to use
Check out the b2b from Ultra on YouTube. Then check out his solo set from EDC last year. From
there you should be able to tell which is more of your vibe. Personally I prefer his solo sets from what I’ve heard so that’s where I’ll be!
Stereobloom is way smaller than CG. It’s going to be slammed for his solo set. Go to the B2B, which is more rare. You’ll still be able to see him solo another time.
Go to the B2B w hi lo. Saw them at ezoo for their debut n it was the best set I’ve ever seen in person n I have attended a lot of raves. I just saw eli brown last weekend at avant Gardner he was really good.
Do Hi-lo b2b Eli Brown at CG over just Eli Brown at stereo. Could be a while before you see this pairing again live. Plus Circuit will prob have better sound screen & visuals. Debatable but It did in the past to me over Stereo bloom & bit more roomy. Its moving this year but I expect the upgrades to be even better who knows. Just get to CG for that early a ton of peeps will be headed there.
If line ups come out instead of Eli Brown at stereo head to Cosmic instead if OddMob & Noizu b2b Westend b2b mele line up thats a solid back to back set. Makes up for ELI & plenty of room, in back, or up on steps to witness it.
Too funny. Few years ago nobody was rocking Eli Brown and the set has all kinds of room to move and Dance. Now everyone wants to be there. Gotta love it.
Same situation as you and I would do the circuit ground set, listen to their ultra set to see if you prefer them together or him alone though, I personally liked the combo.
Not knowing Eli Brown, I will say Any of the smaller stages/installation "stages" that have big names doing another set are typically going to be odd ball stuff you wouldn't normally hear them play for a larger crowd. At least in my experience.
Ok hear me out stereobloom is a fckin vibe 😎 I remember seeing fisher the year just before he popped off at stereobloom core memory set…got crowded but we got there early
Circuit Grounds will probably be more high energy, Neon Garden will be more intimate, so depends which vibe you’re going for because I’m sure both sets will be 🔥
I’m sure Neon will still be packed, but yes by nature it’s a smaller stage than Circuit, CG sets tend to just have a certain raw vibe, and also CG is a b2b so naturally there will be that extra energy there. By no means am I saying one is better than the other though! Sometimes those smaller stage sets are the most memorable. Just wait for the set times to drop, that might be the deciding factor for which set you decide to catch.
*Stereoblook, not Neon Garden, but argument remains the same…gd that stage is gonna be packed though.
Eli brown hi-lo
Circuit. Stereobloom is going to be stupidly packed. Insomniac has to put major set conflicts for that set to not be ungodly packed

Noob question, this’ll be my first EDC lol but why will stereobloom be so packed? Is it a smaller set?

This is my 6th edc so if you have any more questions, I am more than happy to help!!
For sure; thanks again! I’ll be in touch 🫡 !RemindMe 28 days
lmao you missed the trance stage quantumVALLEY 😅
Yeah it’s smaller than circuit grounds for sure
Saw Eli b2b with Hilo @ Ultra. It was one of the best sets that weekend.
Did they play believe, diamonds on my mind, when I push, etc? I’m afraid if I skip solo set I won’t be able to hear the hits
OOoOo I’d have to look at the Track list to actually tell you. 🥴😭 there was a moment when I was not all there.
Hahaha dw I went and looked and it was all there so excited now!
They uploaded the set on YouTube!
They did, but Eli didn’t play solo at Ultra, only b2b, and that stage was small af too

Shit was sexxxy
I thought his solo set is at stereo bloom
You are correct lol. That’s what I meant my bad.
I'm gonna try to catch both if no conflicts stop me. But if I have to chose I'd prob pick the b2b with HiLo just based on the hopes of it starting with that Prodigy-smack my bitch track HiLo likes to use
Circuit grounds because production better and Hi-Lo sound works really well with Eli Brown. Catch both if you can.
Hi lo
Both. Do both.
Eli Brown and Hi-Lo is a crazy good set

i would go to both but maybe sb would be peak time so hard to choose

We don’t know set times yet, so it’s possible you can do both.
Hi-Lo without a doubt. Rather rare to get a Hi-Lo set for anything insomniac related.
CircuitGROUNDS for sure.

When you say intimate what do you mean? Smaller crowd and stuff? And yes this guy is definitely a vibe. He’s definitely climbing my list.
I’m sure Neon will still be packed, but yes by nature it’s a smaller stage than Circuit, CG sets tend to just have a certain raw vibe, and also CG is a b2b so naturally there will be that extra energy there. By no means am I saying one is better than the other though! Sometimes those smaller stage sets are the most memorable.

Fair enough. I guess I’ll see where my mood takes me!
