We Belong Here - EDM Festival

Thousands upon thousands of people gathered in New York City to witness some of the world’s most talented DJ’s put on a never before seen show.

The venue was expansively boundless, stretching on with dozens of tents and stands meticulously set up all around the locale. Food, drinks, and lounge areas could be accessed no matter where you turned, reinforcing the hospitality and anticipation of this event.

The excitement emanating from each and every guest was palpable, and the moment they were all let into the venue, the areas in front of the DJ instantly flooded with crowds and masses.

And the sun’s warm rays shining down on the multitude of people only amplified their energy, which pumped into the crystal air of this beautiful day.

The event ran from before six o’clock p.m. all the way through until after ten, but not a single person in a single crowd lost their enthusiasm. All of the DJ’s did a superb job, but when the main stars of the event came out at the very end of the night, the static elation buzzing throughout the swarms of people only multiplied. The stars for this event turned out to be Kaskade and Deadmau5, two well-renowned members of the EDM group Kx5. And the reactionary exhilaration from their music was nothing if not infectious.

The fans united together at this venue loved every minute they spent there, and just when you thought the energy couldn’t elevate any higher, they would surprise you in every way imaginable. This was not just another music festival. We Belong Here was truly a holistic celebration of EDM music.
