EDC Las Vegas 2025 – Martin Garrix, Kaskade, Tiësto & More

From May 16 to 18, Las Vegas Motor Speedway will once again transform into a neon-drenched playground for all EDM lovers. With over 500,000 attendees expected, EDC Las Vegas 2025 cements its place as the crown jewel of North America’s festival season.

This year’s edition features jaw-dropping names like Armin Van Buuren, DJ Snake, James Hype, Meduza, Alesso and Rezz, to name a few. And that’s only the tip of the iceberg — Insomniac’s flagship festival is also dialing things up with exclusive B2B sets you wouldn’t experience elsewhere, such as Alison Wonderland B2B Kaskade or Nico Moreno B2B I Hate Models. As the most ambitious edition yet, an unprecedented number of 16 stages are set to showcase every subgenre of electronic music, from Techno and Dubstep to Drum & Bass and Hardstyle. 

Whether you’re chasing mainstage anthems or warehouse-style chaos, EDC Vegas 2025 promises something for every kind of raver. Funktasy has picked a few of its favourite artists we’re anticipating seeing under the electric sky. So here are, in no particular order, five DJs you definitely don’t want to miss this year.

Martin Garrix

Martin Garrix is a name that even people outside the EDM world instantly recognize. His signature sound, built on energetic melodies and razor-sharp production, is well known worldwide and has earned him quite a few awards, including claiming the No.1 spot for DJ Mag’s “Top 100 DJs” five times. Best known for global hits like “Animals”, “Scared to Be Lonely” and “In the Name of Love”, Garrix has also demonstrated an outstanding ability to evolve. He’s ventured into diverse genres, including Big Room, Future Bass, Progressive House and Bass House.

His recent set at Ultra Miami 2025 confirmed his status as a world-class performer. He delivered a 1-hour-long spectacle where artistry triumphed, blending heavy-hitting drops with emotional moments in a way that few others can. His 2022 comeback album, “Sentio”, a solid 11-tracker spanning from progressive house anthems to infectious club bangers, has been one of the most praised of that year by the entire EDM scene. And his latest hits like “Angels for Each Other” and “Told You So” prove he’s far from slowing down.

Approaching this year’s edition as DJ Mag’s No.1 DJ in the world, Garrix promises to unleash a performance packed with explosive visuals, sky-splitting fireworks and thunderous bass drops that will send shivers down your spine. When the lights go up and the bass hits, you’ll want to be there — trust us. 

Kaskade

A pioneer in American dance music, Kaskade’s prominence stretches far beyond the decks. Hailing from Chicago’s vibrant house scene of the early 2000s, the American DJ is no stranger to the city of Las Vegas. He was, indeed, the first electronic act to secure a residency in town in 2010, namely at the Encore Beach Club, laying the foundation for its development as the clubbing mecca of North America. He would later also become the first electronic solo artist to headline Coachella in 2015, and to sell out major arenas like LA’s Staples Center.

With multiple GRAMMY award nominations under his belt, Kaskade boasts successes such as “Turn It Down”, “I Remember”, “Move for Me” and “Escape”, the latter made with his friend and fellow artist Deadmau5. His iconic progressive house sound, which features a blend of memorable melodies and driving rhythms, is widely acclaimed by fans all over the world. As a testament to his trailblazing path in electronic music, he also became the first DJ to perform at the Super Bowl halftime show in 2024, under the excited eye of more than 123 million people.

His live shows are nothing short of a feast for the eyes. Immersive visuals on a giant LED backdrop entertain the crowd, while intricate lighting patterns fire up the night sky. Kaskade doesn’t just play a set — he creates a moment.

Fisher

Everyone surely remembers the brassy tech-house killer track “Losing It”, which was all over the clubs and charts in 2018. Well, the mastermind behind that hit song is none other than Australian sensation Fisher. A former pro surfer turned dance music juggernaut, he’s a true grand maestro of bouncy basslines and infectious rhythms. He has achieved remarkable success over the past years, considering his multiple ARIA nominations and even a GRAMMY nod for Best Dance Recording.

Besides “Losing It”, you may know him for tracks like “You Little Beauty”, “Take It Off”, “Atmosphere” and his massive reworks of “World Hold On (Children of the Sky)” by Bob Sinclair and of “Somebody That I Used to Know” by Gotye and Kimbra. He’s also one half of Under Construction, his powerhouse collaboration with Chris Lake, which in 2023 lit up Hollywood Boulevard with a headline-grabbing set.

Aside from his spirited productions, Fisher is a terrific live performer, turning his sets into full-body experiences thanks to his high-octane energy and off-the-wall charisma. Don’t be surprised if you catch a few unreleased tracks mixed in — he loves road-testing new material on unsuspecting crowds. Skip this one and you’ll be hearing about it for the rest of the weekend. 

Tiësto

Largely celebrated as one of the most legendary DJs of all time, Tiësto’s rise to fame started a long time ago. Back in the early 2000s, he managed to take Trance music further into the spotlight and became a mainstream act. He was also voted DJ Mag’s No.1 DJ in the world three consecutive times, from 2002 to 2004, consolidating his unstoppable ascent to the Mount Olympus of dance music. His performance at the 2004 Olympics opening ceremony marked a pivotal moment for electronic music’s global visibility, making him the first DJ to ever achieve such an astonishing milestone.

In recent years, the Dutch icon has reinvented his style, delivering pop and club crossover hits like “The Business”, “The Motto” with Ava Max, “Hot In It” with Charli XCX, “10:35” with Tate McRae and “Lay Low”. 

But for this EDC set, Tiësto’s going back to the roots. He’s reviving his iconic “In Search of Sunrise” series — a mix format he first launched in 1999, designed to capture the feeling of daybreak through lush melodies and atmospheric transitions. If there’s one sunrise set you catch this year, make it this one.

Dom Dolla

If house music and pop had a love child, it would surely sound like Dom Dolla. Hailing from Melbourne, the Australian DJ and producer has carved out a unique sound, turning minimalist beats into full-blown dancefloor weapons. He has sold out venues of the likes of Red Rocks Amphitheatre and Forest Hills Stadium, becoming an absolute fan favourite in the US. In addition to winning three ARIA Music Awards, in 2024 he received his first Grammy nomination for his critically acclaimed remix of “New Gold” by Gorillaz, Tame Impala and Bootie Brown. 

Dom rose to fame in 2019 thanks to his breakout hit “Take It”, an utterly undeniable global club anthem, and he’s only leveled up since – dropping bangers like “San Frandisco”, “Miracle Maker”, “Rhyme Dust”, “Saving Up” and “Eat Your Man” with Nelly Furtado. His sound sits at the sweet spot between tech-house grit and pop appeal — underground enough for the heads, catchy enough for the charts.

Whether he’s lighting up Coachella or curating marathon sets in Ibiza, Dom’s presence behind the decks is magnetic. His 2024 set at EDC was a festival highlight and expectations are sky-high for this year’s return. Expect funky drops, cheeky edits and a crowd that refuses to stand still. If you’re chasing a groove-heavy, sweat-dripping, feel-good moment under the neon lights, this is it. 

And That Wraps It Up for EDC Las Vegas 2025!

EDC Las Vegas 2025 isn’t just another festival. It’s like the Oscars of dance music. Mind-boggling acts, from Martin Garrix’s euphoric drops to Fisher’s groove-soaked bangers, will crash the party and steal the show. It really doesn’t matter if you’re chasing chart-toppers, underground heroes or just looking to lose yourself in the lights and bass, one thing’s for sure: this weekend will leave a mark.

So grab your hydration pack, throw on your wildest outfit and head to the Las Vegas Motor Speedway. EDC is the place to be this May — and don’t say we didn’t warn you!
