I am going to be going to Lost lands in a couple of weeks here, and I want to add fentanyl test strips and potentially narcan to some of the trinkets that I hand out to people this year.

I know a lot of people like in party favors in general so I always like to hand those out with whatever other trinkets I have!

Has anyone had success buying tickets from sellers on the street by the festival? I’ve done it a few times for Lolla and had no issues but curious about Arc. Looking to go Saturday.

Long time EDM fan but never been to a live show. Going to see Eric Prydz at radius in December and have some questions. Are there opening Dj’s? Is there a usual time the headliner goes on? Any info would be helpful. Thanks in advance

Hey guys! Does anyone know if he will have an after party after north coast festival in Chicago this Sunday? I really want to see him but none of my friends want to go to the festival. Thank you!!

Not seeing any openers… will the play all night?

Hey everyone!

I (26M) moved to Chicago last August, still looking to meet new friends! A lot of my friends are going to Northcoast I only know a handful of people going to Arc. Would love to meet new people this weekend at Arc!

Dm me if you’re also looking to meet new people, we can also dm on IG if you want!

Goin to LSR and am wondering where to stay, anyone have recs?

I can't attend the festival but there's some DJs that I'm dying to see but all the sites are asking me for a code. Are these tickets not available for anyone without an Arc ticket? Do I have to wait for the day of the show before they're available for the general public?

I just gotta see 999999999, any information will be appreciated.

Hey guys! Going to my first ever house/edm and was deciding between 2 but I’m newbie so I don’t much. What would you guys recommend. I’ll also being alone if that helps.

I’m not sure if I’m thinking too much about this and would like an outside opinion.

Earlier this week I made a post asking about Chicago EDM in the techno, trance, hyperpop space so many of you came and offered great advice which I appreciated so much!

After hearing about some places to search on Instagram, I came across a LGBTQIA+ organizer group that had an event on a date that worked perfectly for me! I was so happy.

I went to go buy a ticket but it said to reach out to them on Instagram to get the passcode. So I did.

They asked if I ever attended their events and if I was a fan of dance music. I let them know that no, I haven’t been to their events since I’m not local to Chicago but I wanted to make friends while I was out there and I’m a huge fan of EDM music, letting them know some clubs and venues I frequent here in NYC that are also safe spaces. I also let them know that I’m genderqueer and pansexual.

And then I think they just ghosted me? Idk part of me is really bothered because I wish I would’ve just gotten a rejection rather than no answer at all. It feels weird to me and I was wondering if anyone had a similar experience or am I doing something wrong?

😫

two amazing free parties saturday and sunday in humboldt park! hundreds of years experience dj, legends of the underground and old people underground :D

Back in town for the night, where should I be going? Dubstep, d & b, techno, house, experimental. I like most of it. Just don't send me to the beyond bollyland.

Anyone going to north coast from the lakeview/lp area? First time going and I’m wondering what the best way is to get to and from the festival.

I’m going with 3 other people so it’d be ~$400 dollars total for us to get shuttle passes, I was thinking it’d be cheaper to CTA as close as possible then uber and vice versa.

Open to all and any suggestions, TIA

This is for ARC ⚡️❤️‍🔥

Who else is excited ?!

I tried to buy 2 Mersiv tickets off someone and they totally ripped me off. I never had bought tickets from anyone off Reddit and thought I'd give it a shot. I sent $65 and they claimed to not get it, asking for it to be sent again. Please watch out for this person

date just got leaked by the opener!!!
