====Recent years (2000s)==== {{See also|List of electronic dance music festivals}} By 2010, raves were becoming the equivalent of large-scale rock music festivals, but many times even bigger and more profitable. The [[Electric Daisy Carnival]] in Las Vegas drew more than 300,000 fans over three days in the summer of 2012, making it the largest EDM music festival in North America. [[Ultra Music Festival]] in Miami drew 150,000 fans over three days in 2012 while other raves like [[Electric Zoo]] in New York, [[Beyond Wonderland]] in LA, [[Detroit Electronic Music Festival|Movement]] in Detroit, [[Electric Forest]] in Michigan, [[Spring Awakening Music Festival]] in Chicago, and dozens more now attract hundreds of thousands of "ravers" every year. These new EDM-based rave events (now simply referred generically to as "[[music festivals]]") sell out. Festival attendance at the Electric Daisy Carnival (EDC) increased by 39.1%, or 90,000 attendees from 2011 to 2012. In 2013, EDC had attendance of approximately 345,000 people, a record for the festival. The average ticket for EDC cost over $300 and the event contributed $278 million to the Clark County economy in 2013.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://w.insomniac.com/newsDetails.php?news=607 |title=EDC Las Vegas 2013 Economic Impact |website=w.insomniac.com |access-date=21 January 2015 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://archive.today/20150121204609/http://w.insomniac.com/newsDetails.php?news=607 |archive-date=21 January 2015}}</ref> This festival takes place at a 1,000-acre complex featuring a half dozen custom built stages, enormous interactive art installations, and hundreds of EDM artists.
