EDC Orlando packing list

• Clear bag. Empty bottle. Photo ID.
• Will call is not the venue.
• Lake Lorna Doone Park. W Church St and Rio Grande.

Bring these

• A bag inside the limits above. Hydration packs go in empty.
• An empty reusable water bottle. A ticket includes free water refill stations.
• An unscanned ticket and a valid photo ID. Entry is 18+. Alcohol and VIP are 21+. The hours page does not list a guardian exception.
• Your phone, and a portable charger or external battery.
• Earplugs, sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat. Powder makeup only. Sealed deodorant, gum, lip balm, lip gloss, or lipstick, tampons or pads, and wet wipes. Unsealed tampons or pads stay outside.
• Prescriptions for the weekend only, in the original container with your name on it, matching your photo ID. Show them to a safety officer. The medical team at the entrance clears them. Over-the-counter medication is prohibited.
• Sealed intranasal naloxone. It is on the acceptable list. That is not instructions, and it does not change the zero-tolerance rule.
• An empty misting fan, bottle 1.5 L or smaller. A rain poncho. An umbrella shorter than 10 inches when collapsed.
• Sealed cigarettes and a lighter. An open pack is not allowed in. A vape needs an empty chamber plus one sealed bottle of e-liquid, or one sealed Juul pod.

• Also cleared: glowsticks, hoops, LED whips, poi, orbitals.
• Small camera. Fixed lens, action cam, or Polaroid.
• Totems up to 10 feet. Light, not solid metal.
• Full yes list on the hours and info page (opens in a new tab).
• LED whips are allowed. The weapons line also names whips. Staff decides.
• Not on their list: fanny pack, loose cable, one-gallon freezer bag.
• Non-clear bag they allowed is the 6″ × 9″ clutch.

• Outside food or drinks, including alcohol and candy. The same items are prohibited on official shuttles.
• Glass, cans, coolers, aerosol cans, markers, spray paint, chairs, tents, blankets, and large umbrellas.
• Weapons, including pocket knives, pepper spray, and fireworks, plus toy guns and water guns.
• Drones, laser pointers, air horns, gas masks, and massagers.
• Drugs, drug paraphernalia, and illegal substances. Pacifiers and stuffed animals.
• Eye drops and over-the-counter medication. They sell both inside.
• Liquid makeup, LED gloves, light-show microlights, spiked jewelry, and costumes that look like police, fire, security, or medical staff.
• Pets. Service animals follow the accessibility page, not the no-pets line.
• Professional cameras, and any bag over 12″×12″.

The hours page (opens in a new tab) has the rest.

Getting in

• Hours are 1 PM–12 AM every day. Last entry is an hour before close, if the ticket has not been scanned. No re-entry that day.
• Will call is at Lake Lorna Doone Park, not at 287 S Tampa Ave. Thursday, November 5: 12 PM–8 PM. Friday, November 6: 10 AM–11 PM. Saturday and Sunday: 12 PM–11 PM.
• A 3-day pass is one scan per day. Buy only through Front Gate. On November 5, 3-day GA was marked sold out. A scalped ticket can get you turned away.
• You agree to a TSA-style search, and staff can refuse entry. A government photo ID or passport works. A school ID or a digital ID does not. Edge cases are on the hours page.
• Inside is cashless. Card and phone pay work. Cash can be swapped for a prepaid card. No fee is published.

The ride there and back

• Official shuttles reach the gate. 1-day or 3-day, one line. Buy on the shuttle page (opens in a new tab).
• Third-party shuttles do not get onto the grounds.
• Hotel EDC shuttle goes to Margaritaville for the parties. That page does not say it drops you at Tinker Field.

• Shuttles leave the hotel stops from 12 PM to 8 PM. The drop-off is about a 15 minute walk to the main entrance. Returns start at 9 PM and end 60 minutes after the music ends at Kinetic Field. They did not publish a clock time for that last bus.
• Prices checked November 5, 2026. A 3-day pass was $123.59 (Tier 1) or $133.59 (Tier 2), fees included. A 1-day pass was $52.88 (Tier 1) or $57.88 (Tier 2). Non-refundable. They expect most passes to be sold out by the event.
• On-site parking is extremely limited. The accessibility page lists general parking at $40. The parking page does not repeat that price. Premier Parking was sold out on November 5, and no Premier price was published.
• Downtown garages are first come, first served. Rates are not listed. The free LYNX ride is the LYMMO Grapefruit Line on show days. Lyft is the official rideshare partner. Stops are on the parking page.
• Do not sleep in the car. Anything still in the lot past 2 AM can be towed. The published tow number is Johnson’s Wrecker Services, (407) 293-2540.

• No re-entry. Outside food stays outside.
• Ride home before you are tired.

• Eat before you arrive. Outbound shuttles stop at 8 PM, so do not count on leaving for food.
• Empty the bottle at the gate, then keep refilling. The health page says the water is filtered and may not be icy, and to wear light clothes and comfortable sneakers. Sandals can leave you with sore feet. They did not publish a forecast.
• Tell your people a meeting spot if you split up. A locker is the one Insomniac suggests. The rental price is not published.
• Tomorrow is sleep, a meal, water, and a check-in with the people who were with you. The longer landing is the festival recovery guide. That is weekend sense, not medical care.

• Zero tolerance for drug use and possession. RaveAura will not help you get around that.
• Medical help will not get you in trouble. Care on site is free.
• Alcohol poisoning: coffee, a cold shower, sleep, or walking it off will not help.
• In danger: staff, Ground Control in the purple shirts, a first aid tent, or local emergency services.
• Safety Hub is free, needs no account, and still opens on a weak signal. Educational, not medical care.
