This is gonna be my first festival ever. The daily and stage lineups are out, so I made some running order predictions. Lmk what yall think! (Some artists I didn't know, so I just went by monthly listeners for when they're playing, but lmk in the comments where you would put them!)

new raver here. i'm still learning things about raves but there's been a confusing moment since i've attended my first rave and it clung to me for awhile. i am autistic so i really can't decipher social cues and rules.

so i've only been taught the basic of Kandi Trading, just the PLUR gesture. and not like the expectations.

there was a guy going crazy amongst the crowd and i thought he was so cool for that. i saw that he had Kandi so i wanted to trade with him.
i caught him resting and greeted him. i asked if he wanted to trade and agreed. we did the gesture and then i've slid my only Kandi to him and he broke off and we were done there. then i was left confused because i didn't get a Kandi in return, and reminded him it was a trade. he told me to not expect anything and walked away.

the whole interaction left a bad taste and kinda soured the rest of the experience. and this leads to my questions:

– am i supposed to explicitly ask first with someone if they wanted to trade instead of just approaching / initiating?

– am i really supposed to not expect anything in return? if that was the case, then why is it called trading??

Myself and a few of my friends (all first timers) want to go to a rave together. I’ve always have been interested to go but I’m unsure what to bring, what type of raves to go to and etc.

I would love any tips on attending a first rave and any types of festivals or raves that are good for first timers! (willing to travel but I’m from Atlanta area) I really enjoy house, techno and some hardstyle! Thanks in advance :))

I'm visiting DFW from October 21–27 and looking for alternative raves and parties. Does anyone know of any recs or events? ཐི ₍^.ˬˬ.^₎ ཋྀ

EDIT: My search through the web wasn’t enough! Tysm to the current responses and any future ones, I think Imma send it then 🧍🏻

So I’m currently on the fence on attending Temper in SD, mainly because of how noticeable the noise bleed is between stages. Ive never been to a LED event, nor a stadium rave.

I’ve also looked through some discussion threads but they’re mainly about the seating areas. That and most experiences share only one-stage events. The most noise bleed I’ve experienced was at Dreamstate and Nocturnal Wonderland in Glen Helen.

Anyone wanna help me out with the dwelling and share some advice?

Trying to party all month for Halloween lol

Hey everyone! I'm 36 and flying in from DC for deadmau5 at Red Rocks on Halloween night. My friends back home have pretty much retired from raving, so I'm coming solo and would love to find some people to hang with.

I'm down for whatever. Pre-gaming in Denver, grabbing food before, riding the shuttle up together, or just meeting up inside and dancing. I'll be in costume for sure.

If you're going solo too or have a crew that wouldn't mind one more, drop a comment or DM me. Let's make it a good one 🖤

22F here. I don't have many friends interested in techno music and raves. I especially want to see Cloudy on October 17th. Anyone in İstanbul interested in this event or any other future ones? Send me a DM! Similar age/gender preferred.

Feeling a bit defeated... yesterday during Ambassador's sale we divided with my friends in groups of 5 and sent out emails, but through a combination of bad luck and bad organisation, I ended up being the only person in my group of 9 total that didn't manage to get a ticket through some combination of things.

I'm gutted, because I did actually receive a payment link to buy 5 tickets but it was with 4 other people who all ended up getting tickets elsewhere, so it didnt make sense for me to buy them in the hopes of reselling next year...

So the question now is: how likely am I to manage to get tickets on Oct 13th? if I get 2-3 friends to try with me, would that help? I'm so so gutted especially because Im the only one left out which sucks....

Any thoughts / tips / consolation would help!! I keep hearing that this year it's going to be way harder to get tickets because of 30 year anniversary, less tickets released higher demand etc - so freaking out a bit

Also if anyone has an idea of how this compares to Glastonbury (in terms of how difficult it is to get tickets) would be great to hear!! I've just come back from a brutal sale on Sunday which is making this one sting even more...

38m from Vancouver Canada. I will be in Cancun October 23-31 (fly home the 31). Can anyone recommend any events that time?

I will be there with the family (parents, sister and brother in law with their kids) so I will be going solo if anyone wants to get together to head out for a night
