CDMX · February
EDC México guide
EDC México is the biggest festival in the country: three days of giant stages at the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez. It means a lot of people and a lot of ground, so it pays to arrive with a plan.
Upcoming dates
What to bring
- A valid photo ID (your passport if you're visiting) and your ticket or wristband. If it's a wristband, activate it before you arrive.
- Sunscreen and sunglasses: the sun is strong during the day.
- A jacket for the night: in February it gets cold in the early hours.
- Comfortable shoes; you'll walk kilometers.
- Earplugs and a power bank.
- Check the official site for the list of banned items.
Getting there
The Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez is on the east side of the city. The easiest way is the Metro: Line 9 has the Ciudad Deportiva and Velódromo stations right next to it.
When the festival ends, ride-hailing apps get overloaded and prices spike. If you're driving, check the official parking lots beforehand.
Where to stay
There are few hotels near the Autódromo. Many people stay in Roma, Condesa or the Centro and come by Metro. If you're traveling from out of town, book as soon as you buy your ticket.
FOMO tips
- Pick an easy meeting point in case you get separated: signal drops inside.
- Build your schedule around the sets you can't miss and leave gaps to eat.
- It's three days: sleep well in between.
