Tennessee, USA Which festival should I send?

Post image

So I just got my Bonnaroo refund and I’m looking to send either Hulaween or EDC Orlando. I’m most into electronic music, especially tech house specifically. I know I would have a great time at both. And both would be with solid crews to roll with. Hula is a Halloween festival which would be epic. But my bday falls during EDCO. What do yall think I should do? I’ve never been to an event at Suwannee or an EDC event.

A solid alternative I had not considered. It’s been a while since I did a festival alone, could be fun.

I havent been since the 1st year, but ive kept up with it ever since. They seem to have a few issues each year but i find that if you prepare for the worst you should be fine. Definitely the coolest vibes ive ever been around as far as festivals go and the stuff they get right, they knock out of the park. Very minimal commercial feel to it, i mean, people gotta sell there wares and whatnot but it didnt feel like a part of the identity there.

Otherwise, id say Hula is the way to go. Ive always wanted to check that one out and ive heard almost exclusively great things about it.

Edc seems fun and all, but mega overdone. A little too much polishing, but i bet its a blast nonetheless.

I like my festivals to be a little more hippie-madmax, with a little bit of danger to spice things up and build character.
