Live Music Hotel Takeovers go global with HOTEL EDC Thailand
Live music hotel takeovers to create a festival experience minus the porta potties is not a new thing in Las Vegas. But now the most popular of them all – Electronic Daisy Carnival’s (EDC) immersive hotel experience is going global with a Thailand edition.
HOTEL EDC Thailand includes four nights of luxury accomodations, daytime wellness sessions, headline shows, pop-up DJ sets, pool parties, and unnamed “immersive activities.”
Hotel rooms are “decked out in EDC gear” and there’s even a “Dedicated Vibee concierge” onsite.
Not just EDM
Live music hotel takeovers is a format that could be replicated both globally and in many genres beyond EDM. What aging classic rock fan wouldn’t prefer a king bed over an air mattress?
Particularly with increasingly unpredictable extreme weather conditions, live music hotel takeovers are a festival format that more promoters are likely to explore.
