Today, Headliners around the country opened their mailboxes with glee, finding a surprise Valentine’s Day present from Pasquale Rotella, Founder and CEO of Insomniac, the production company behind North America’s largest three-day dance music festival. In preparation for the highly-anticipated lineup reveal that features more than 200 globally renowned dance music artists each year, the sweet Valentine’s Day treat included customized candy hearts featuring names of the artists on the lineup for the 2018 festival, along with the new Insomniac and EDC logos, and a handful of phrases Headliners will recognize.
In his second of three Valentine’s Day surprises, Pasquale Rotella revealed the theme and special artwork for this year’s EDC Las Vegas as ‘Kinetic Love.’ Signifying the second pillar of PLUR, the powerful symbol gives a nod to the unconditional appreciation and acceptance that thrives within dance music. Celebrated by a culture that empowers its community to grow and create unforgettable memories, Kinetic Love will bond over 400,000 Headliners together Under the Electric Sky, creating an environment of good will and beautiful, connected spirits.
As an extra special Valentine’s Day treat for all to enjoy, Pasquale Rotella will also reveal the highly anticipated roster of artists set to perform at the 22nd annual EDC Las Vegas tonight on a special Wednesday evening episode of Night Owl Radio. Fans can tune in to the EDC Las Vegas Facebook page here or on SiriusXM Electric Area Channel 52, at 4 p.m. PT on Wednesday, Feb. 14 as Pasquale rolls out the reveal, stage by stage, one artist at a time, through a set of specially curated mini-mixes made for each of the EDC’s eight stages.
