MUMBAI: Insomniac, the world’s leading live events experience creators, and Colombia’s Páramo Presenta, are proud to announce the launch of Electric Daisy Carnival (EDC) Colombia, arriving in Medellín in October 2026. The festival will take over the iconic Unidad Deportiva Atanasio Girardot, bringing EDC’s signature blend of music, art, and community to one of South America’s most vibrant cities.

EDC Colombia marks a major milestone in Insomniac’s global expansion, following successful editions in Mexico, Brazil, the UK, China, India, South Korea and beyond. Medellín, a city known for its innovation, culture, and breathtaking landscapes, will offer a one-of-a-kind backdrop for the debut of EDC in Colombia.

The festival is being produced in partnership with Páramo Presenta, part of OCESA, one of Latin America’s most influential live entertainment companies and Insomniac’s longtime collaborator on EDC Mexico. Together, the teams will deliver an authentic and elevated experience rooted in local culture and powered by Insomniac’s globally renowned production standards.

“We’re committed to growing this global community and sharing the magic of EDC with the world. Choosing a new location for EDC is never random. It comes down to a few key factors,”  said Pasquale Rotella, Founder and CEO of Insomniac.. “First, we look for a local partner who shares our values, understands the spirit of EDC, and has the vision and dedication to help bring it to life. Páramo Presenta is an incredible team that fits that perfectly. Medellín also offers a venue that can support the scale and creativity EDC is known for, along with the backing we need from the city and local community. Most importantly, EDC must have a purpose. It should bring something meaningful to the area and leave a positive impact. EDC is about more than music - it’s about connection, culture, and creating unforgettable experiences that bring people together.”

"We are very proud to bring to Colombia such a major brand with so much history, and one that has been fundamental to the growth of electronic dance music worldwide, like EDC. Medellín will become the center of the electronic world in October 2026, and we hope to reveal more details soon about this festival that is returning to South America," said Santiago Vélez from Páramo Presenta.

EDC Colombia will feature a massive lineup of world-renowned electronic artists, multiple immersive stage designs, large-scale art installations, carnival rides, and local cultural elements that reflect the heart and soul of Medellín.

Additional details, including lineup, dates, and ticketing information, will be announced in the coming months. Fans can stay up to date by visiting EDCColombia.com.
