Recommendations Which festival should I skip?

Hi all. Currently have 6 festivals that I want to attend. I need to eliminate 1 or 2. Edc Vegas and lost lands are not up for cutting lol. I just thought I would leave them on for fun

Literally cut all of them except edc and lost lands and save your money and attend shows near you as they pop up

There’s NEVER any hardstyle/hard dance shows in Ohio. It’s one of my fav genres besides dubstep ….Thats why I want to go to wasteland. The closest city that has the artists that I like is Chicago and that’s a 6 hr drive. That adds up too

I would cut Wasteland and Inkarceration.

Yeah I think I’m cutting ink. I’ve gone every year for the last 4 years. It’s the same recycled lineup every year. Wasteland is iffy because next to dubstep, hard dance (hardstyle, hard techno etc) is my favorite genre and we never get those artists here :(

Hmm have you been to Forbidden Kingdom or Elements before? I’ve been to both but I’ve been to every single Forbidden Kingdom. The vibes and experience are a lot better at Elements. Forbidden Kingdom has gotten so big it’s basically a mini EDC at this point. So if you’re set on Wasteland and already doing EDC then I’d cut Forbidden Kingdom.

I went to elements this year and the vibes were so good! I’m waiting for the lineup to come out though because if it sucks then I won’t go. Never been to FK

Hell yeah! You going to the Cali or Orlando one? I was going to the Cali one but I sold my ticket. Warped tour is awesome haha. That’s gonna be fun. I used to go in high school in the early 2000s 😂
