![]() Tony Nungaray for Insomniac Eventsīeyond Wonderland is expected to return to Southern California in 2020. This is only because it was so easy to make it to different stages with nothing but a brisk walk. This notion vanished as you quickly realized that the festival was actually just the right size. I say this because its stages were stacked, and set times were rather hard to choose between. There were moments where Beyond Wonderland felt more like EDC. The experience that the team over at Insomniac is able to cultivate is just out of this world. The music is great, the people are lovely, and the vibe is amazing. The festival is amazing in both GA and VIP sections. The overall experience as a headliner is something I think everyone should experience. The Overall ExperienceĪll in all, Beyond Wonderland is definitely a festival I would come back to a second or even third time. ![]() They are family that knows how to make the best experience for their headliners. Insomniac did an amazing job at showing that they are more than just festivals. Nick Ledesma and Adam Auburn, who are resident artists at Insomniac’s notorious nightclub Exchange LA, made an appearance to show Beyond Wonderland headliners what nightlife in LA is all about. Ivan Meneses for Insomniac EventsĪlthough there were many big names at the festival, Insomniac did everything they can to include all types of up and coming artists. I even managed to snag a few moments of a rare tech-house set from Carnage at this stage. This took place at their secret ‘ Rabbit Hole‘ stage. Another is the secret D&B set that Kaskade played at Beyond this year. Hardwell‘s Hip Hop set during EDC ’17 on the Mayan Art Car is the perfect example of this. With Insomniac being known for their art cars, as well as the surprise sets that get played on them it’s no secret that they had something in store for us. Tony Nungaray for Insomniac Events Surprise! Now, fans are anxiously waiting for new music from Ekali but the wait should be over soon. Ekali brought the heat to the festival as he played a massive set to make his come back one to remember. Ivan Meneses for Insomniac Eventsīeyond Wonderland was one of Ekali’s first performances in two months since he has been vigorously working on new tunes for his fans. As the Queen’s Domain lit up with massive energy, the entire crowd shouted the vocals to “First Time” to end Seven Lions performance strong. This weekend, Seven Lions ended his remarkable set with the vocals from his recent collaborative track “First Time” with Slander and Dabin. Seven Lions is notorious for incorporating a variety of styles of dubstep, psytrance, and melodic tracks within his set. If this year’s Beyond Wonderland was the first time you’ve seen Seven Lions then you were in for a special treat. Codes, Bijou, Wax Motif, & Noizu were all performing, and if you’re familiar with them you know that they are some of the best at what they do. Those who found themselves at the stage were in for a treat. Insomniac Records hosted Cheshire Woods on Saturday night. It was Saturday night that Basscon took control of the garden and really turned things up a couple of notches. On Friday night, it was hosted by Dreamstate, enchanting the dancefloor with artists Andrew Rayel, Liquid Soul, and Aly & Fila. Tony Nungaray for Insomniac Events Caterpillars GardenĬaterpillars Garden was a bit crazy when compared to the other stages. Scheduled for the night were YehMe2 (Formally 1/2 of Flosstradamus), ZHU, Said The Sky, and SAYMYNAME, who all brought the heat. Saturday night saw a more diverse lineup for the Castle. This saw the likes of Dubloadz, Ganja White Night, and Rusko take the stage, with the latter putting on one of the best performances I’ve ever seen from the English DJ & Record Producer. ![]() ![]() Mad Hatter’s Castle had a very Bass heavy lineup Friday night, as it was hosted by Bassrush. Alex Varsa for Insomniac Events Mad Hatter’s Castle As expected, they absolutely tore the place apart. Queen’s Domain was this year’s mainstage, which saw everyone from Rezz, to Seven Lions, Salvatore Ganacci, and Deorro grace the stage. These being Queen’s Domain, Mad Hatter’s Castle, Caterpillar’s Garden, and Cheshire Woods. This years event had dedicated VIP dance areas at all four of its stages, leaving those who like their elbow space a spot for them. Ivan Meneses for Insomniac Events The StagesĢ019‘s Beyond Wonderland consisted of four different stages.
