“Three nights. Eight stages. 300,000 ravers. One campervan to rule them all.” EDC Las Vegas isn’t just a festival — it’s a neon-drenched universe. And the ultimate upgrade? A campervan parked at Camp EDC, steps from the gates.

It’s like if Burning Man met Tomorrowland — and you brought your van full of LED butterflies.

What Is Camp EDC?

Camp EDC is a dedicated camping village beside Las Vegas Motor Speedway — your 24/7 base between sets. Think shaded chill zones, pool parties with DJs, food trucks, yoga, showers and, most importantly, no nightmare rideshares at 4am.

Two ways to stay: bring your own RV/campervan (the fun way) or rent a ShiftPod/tent setup (less fun). You want the wheels.

Why a Campervan Wins at EDC

  • You control your vibe — nap, chill, prep, party at your pace.
  • Private bathroom & A/C (if your rig has it).
  • Outfits, snacks, hydration — all on hand; no hotel shuttles.
  • Shower when you want (or not… we won’t judge).
  • Skip transport chaos — you’re already on site.

What You’ll Need to Camp at EDC

  • EDC festival ticket (for each person)
  • RV/Campervan camping pass (often ~US$500–600)
  • Generator or solar system — no hookups provided
  • Fire extinguisher + greywater plan
  • Water jugs or hoses (on-site refill stations available)

Note: Camp EDC is dry/primitive camping — plan to be fully self-contained.

Best Vans for the Desert

Heat + dust + zero shade means your van spec matters:

  • Insulation & strong ventilation
  • Rooftop fans or A/C (with adequate power)
  • Blackout curtains for daytime sleep
  • Mini-fridge or full kitchenette
  • LED lights, ample USBs, healthy battery bank

Pickup city: Las Vegas — the Speedway is only ~5 miles away.

Party Tips from the Van Village

  • Bring a Bluetooth speaker — keep it respectful after sunrise.
  • Decorate: LEDs, flags, glow decals — make your camp easy to find.
  • Mobile showers exist; lines spike late — go early.
  • Cook brekkie while the sun comes up — nothing beats sunrise pancakes.
  • Befriend neighbours — some of the best “sets” happen between stages.
