Tiësto (NL)

|
Long separated from his Trance days, it was a pure EDM set with a lot of his newer hits. |
I’ve seen many crowds over the years here at the EDC main stage (including forTiësto) but this was as packed as I’ve ever seen it! |
Another view from the Jumbotron inside Camping World Stadium.
While Tiesto was busy on the Kinetic Field stage, the Corona Electric Beach hosted a party with Manny Mak: And then it was time for the opening ceremony at Kinetic Field. |
After Tiësto there was a fireworks show and then DJ Kayzo (USA) and he went a bit more Hardstyle on us. |

But a few minutes into his set it became noticeable that a fire was underway in the left fireworks pod! |
And it became pretty large! |
Very proud of the Orlando Fire Department though as they arrived within 5 minutes and had the fire out within another 5 minutes! |
The two views above taken off the stadium’s Jumbotron. Great work OFD! |
Until the fire was out they asked everyone to vacate kineticFIELD so the other music areas got really crowded! |
More Heavy Bass from DJ G-Buck at Corona Beach.![]() Corona Electric Beach also hosted Kayzo due to the situation with the fire at Kinetic Field. ![]() ![]() Nitti Gritti also performed at the beach. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
At the boombox, DJ Jessica Audiffred (MEX). |
Her Dubstep / Bass set had the crowd in a frenzy! |
When it was time to chill, there was the lake shore. |
Grassy fields. |
Cuddle huddles in the hammock. |
Or just wander around in your tighty whiteys! |
You could dress up. |
Or dress down!
Meanwhile in the Neon Garden tent, Tiga was working his magic on the crowd. |
Then it was time for The Martinez Brothers (USA). |
First time ever seeing them live! |
The lasers were flying! |
And their Tech House drops had everyone bouncing! Neon Garden Tent photo by Troy Acevedo ![]() The Martinez Brothers photo by Troy Acevedo ![]() |
