EDC Orlando 2026: Tickets, Lineup, Shuttle and Hotels

EDC Orlando 2026 takes over Tinker Field from November 6 to 8, about 3 km from downtown Orlando, with music from 1 PM to midnight. The 3-day GA pass starts at US$ 314.99 with fees (Oct 2026), and the festival is 18+ only.

The lineup includes David Guetta, Martin Garrix, Kaskade, Hardwell and Alok. Since there’s no re-entry and parking is limited, the official shuttle from International Drive is usually the smartest move: that’s why it pays to book your hotel on I-Drive along with your ticket. Below you’ll find prices for every pass, shuttle routes, and how to fit Disney and Universal into the same trip.

About EDC Orlando

Electric Daisy Carnival is Insomniac’s electronic music festival, the same producer behind EDC Las Vegas. The Orlando edition is smaller and more compact than Vegas: instead of a desert speedway, it takes over Tinker Field, an old baseball stadium next to Camping World Stadium, near downtown. That changes the logistics: you can take the shuttle, a Lyft/Uber, or even pair a downtown hotel with a rideshare ride back.

November weather helps. The summer heat is gone, afternoons are still warm and nights are pleasant, which suits a festival that starts at 1 PM and only ends at midnight. The setup has all the classic EDC elements: themed stages, carnival rides, giant art and performers roaming the crowd. The main stage is Kinetic Field, the reference point for when shuttles head back.

Lineup by day

Insomniac released the lineup split by day, with several sunset sets and B2B meetups. The biggest names each night, according to the official lineup page:

• Friday (11/6): David Guetta, Afrojack and Alesso (sunset set).
• Saturday (11/7): Kaskade, Steve Aoki, Alison Wonderland, Alan Walker (sunset set) and ACRAZE B2B CID.
• Sunday (11/8): Martin Garrix, Hardwell, Alok, Meduza and Boys Noize B2B Brutalismus 3000.

Set times and the map drop shortly before the festival, on the website, in the Insomniac app and by email for ticket holders. If you can only go one day, Sunday packs the most popular names among Brazilians, with Alok and Martin Garrix on the same night.

Ticket types and prices

Tickets are sold only through Front Gate Tickets, the official box office, with a limit of four tickets per person. The prices below (Oct 2026) already include fees, but not tax and delivery. If you live outside the US, you pick up your ticket at the festival’s Will Call. Tiers can sell out and prices can change.

For those coming from Brazil, the 3-day GA has the best cost per night: about US$ 105 per day, versus US$ 149 for the single-day (Oct 2026). GA+ makes a difference in the Saturday entry lines. VIP is only worth it if you’re 21 or older and want bar and food without the wait.

Shuttle and how to get to Tinker Field

Tinker Field is at 287 S Tampa Ave, about 3 km from Downtown Orlando and roughly 22 km from MCO airport. The festival doesn’t allow re-entry: leave, and your day is over. General parking is very limited and Premier Parking already shows as sold out on the official website. Cars left after 2 AM get towed.

The smoothest way in and out is the official Insomniac shuttle. Buses run continuously from noon to 8 PM, and the return starts at 9 PM, running until 60 minutes after the music ends at Kinetic Field. The 3-day pass costs US$ 123.59 round trip (tier 1) and the 1-day pass, US$ 52.88 (Oct 2026). Each pass is valid only for the line you bought:

• Orange Line: Fairfield Inn & Suites Near Universal, 5614 Vineland Rd.
• Green Line: Four Points by Sheraton International Drive, 5905 International Dr.
• Yellow Line: Comfort Inn & Suites Near Universal, 7495 Canada Ave.
• Blue Line: Embassy Suites International Drive ICON Park, 8250 Jamaican Ct.
• Silver Line: Courtyard Lake Buena Vista at Vista Centre, 8501 Palm Pkwy.

The drop-off point is about a 15-minute walk from the main entrance. Shuttle passes are non-refundable and won’t be replaced if lost. Details on the official shuttle page. Lyft is a sponsor, but surge pricing climbs steeply at the midnight exit.

Where to stay: International Drive or Downtown

International Drive is the most practical choice: two shuttle lines leave from hotels on the avenue, two more are near Universal, and you’re close to restaurants, outlets and Universal for the days before and after. It’s the best base if you’re combining the festival with the parks.

Downtown Orlando is about 3 km from Tinker Field. The rideshare ride is short, but there’s no official shuttle leaving downtown, and the wait at the midnight exit can be long. It works if you’re only going to the festival and want bars nearby: see hotels in Downtown for the EDC nights. For Disney, Lake Buena Vista (Silver Line) is the alternative.

How to combine it with the parks

With music from 1 PM to midnight, squeezing in a park the same morning is exhausting and risks your festival entry. The itinerary that works best is arriving Wednesday (11/4), using Thursday (11/5) for a park, and saving Monday (11/9) and Tuesday to rest and hit more parks. If you still want a park on Friday, leave by late morning to catch an early shuttle.

If you’re staying on International Drive, Universal is the most natural fit: Universal Studios Orlando Ticket — Civitatis. For a day away from the parks, the Kennedy Space Center tour — Civitatis is about an hour’s drive to the coast. If your trip stretches into December, check the Christmas season dates at the parks and what changes in crowds and prices at year’s end.
