TL;DR

EDC Thailand has announced the addition of Neon Garden, one of EDC's signature stage concepts, for its December 18–20, 2026 edition at Rhythm Park Phuket. The expansion brings the festival to six stages and introduces a dedicated house and techno platform alongside a lineup featuring Martin Garrix, Tiësto, DJ Snake, Above & Beyond, Charlotte de Witte, Kaskade, Subtronics, and more. The third edition also marks the return of Hotel EDC at Angsana Laguna Phuket.

Six-Stage Expansion Brings House and Techno Focus

EDC Thailand has confirmed the addition of Neon Garden for its December 2026 edition at Rhythm Park Phuket, bringing one of EDC's most recognized stage concepts to the island for the first time. The move expands the festival to six stages and signals a stronger commitment to house and techno programming alongside the progressive, trance, and bass sounds that have defined previous editions. The December 18–20 event marks the third edition of EDC Thailand and the second year of Hotel EDC at Angsana Laguna Phuket, the first Hotel EDC outside the United States.

Lineup Spans Progressive House, Trance, Techno, and Bass

The December 2026 lineup features Martin Garrix, Tiësto, DJ Snake, Above & Beyond, Charlotte de Witte, Kaskade, Subtronics, James Hype, Mau P, Vintage Culture, SOFI TUKKER, and Green Velvet b2b Steve Angello. Trance representation includes Andrew Rayel, Paul van Dyk, Giuseppe Ottaviani, Marlo, Alpha 9, and Daxson, while bass and harder styles are covered by ATLiens, ALLEYCVT, Hamdi, Andy C, Kanine b2b Sota, Lil Texas, Da Tweekaz, Coone, Darren Styles, and a Showtek hardstyle set. Thai and regional artists including Bella Claxton b2b Kyle Starkey, Noise Mafia b2b Afem Syko, RAYRAY, 22Bullets, and Pixzy round out the announcement.

Branded Takeovers and Stage Identity

Branded stage takeovers from Dreamstate Presents, Factory93, Bassrush Experience, and Insomniac Records Takeover will help organize the weekend by genre. Neon Garden, historically tied to Factory 93 at EDC Las Vegas, has featured warehouse-style structures, metal framing, LED panels, and a more enclosed dancefloor aesthetic compared to the festival's main stages. The stage concept is associated with deep house, techno, minimal visuals, and immersive live art, and has hosted branded takeovers from Club Space and Time Warp in past years.

EDC Thailand returns to Rhythm Park Phuket December 18–20, 2026, with the Destination EDC Phuket concept offering hotel packages, pre-parties, and afterparties across the island's resort districts and nightlife venues.
