Electric Daisy Carnival Reveals 2015 Las Vegas Dates [WATCH]

Insomniac CEO Pasquale Rotella has announced in a Facebook post the dates for the Electric Daisy Carnival's 2015 Las Vegas event, which will return to the Las Vegas Motor Speedway June 19 to 21. According to Your EDM, the 2015 festival will also bring back its weeklong EDMbiz Conference & Expo, which will run from June 16 to 23.

"Let's celebrate under the electric sky and watch the sun rise together!" Rotella wrote in the Facebook announcement. "Come one, come all, come home."

Tickets for the 2015 Electric Daisy Carnival Las Vegas go on sale Dec. 1 at 12 p.m., though no performers have yet been announced. General admission passes start at $329, while VIP passes start at $699.

Performers at the 2014 Electric Daisy Carnival Las Vegas included Avicii, Tiësto, Calvin Harris, Diplo, Steve Aoki, Chromeo, Zeds Dead, Bassnectar, Afrojack, Paul Oakenfold and more. Other than Las Vegas, Electric Daisy Carnival has also been held in New York, Orlando, Puerto Rico, London, Mexico City and Chicago.

Like far too many music festivals in recent years, Electric Daisy Carnival Las Vegas came under fire this past summer when three of its attendees died. Montgomery Tsang, 24, Anthony Anaya, 25, and Joey Saychack, 21, were the festival's three fatalities, while nearly 800 others received medical treatment, largely due to drug use and dehydration.

In response to the alarmingly high number of fatalities at EDM festivals, New York's Electric Zoo famously forced its attendees to watch an anti-drug PSA before they were allowed entry. It is not yet clear if Electric Daisy Carnival Las Vegas will require its attendees to do the same.

You can check out the Electric Zoo anti-drug PSA — titled The Molly — here, which was written and produced by Dexter creator James Manos:
