Insomniac has officially announced the return of its premier New Year’s Eve celebration, Countdown, to the NOS Events Center in San Bernardino, California. In a significant move for the brand, the 2016 edition will expand into a comprehensive two-night engagement, scheduled for Friday, December 30, and Saturday, December 31.
A Two-Day Celebration at NOS Events Center
The expansion to a multi-day format reflects the growing demand for high-caliber year-end events in the Southern California region. Attendees are invited to ring in 2017 amidst a meticulously designed environment featuring scenic décor and three massive stages. Each stage is set to host a diverse array of world-renowned dance music artists, ensuring a broad spectrum of electronic subgenres is represented.
Immersive Production and Enhanced VIP Offerings
Insomniac is recognized globally for its commitment to high-level production value. For Countdown 2016, the promoter promises state-of-the-art audiovisual installations and an atmosphere that prioritizes attendee immersion. Beyond the music, the event will feature enhanced VIP offerings, catering to those seeking a more curated and comfortable festival experience as they transition into the new year.
Building on a Legacy of Sold-Out Success
The decision to expand follows the success of the previous year's iteration, which saw 30,000 attendees gather for a sold-out event. That edition featured a heavyweight roster including Kaskade, DJ Snake, Flux Pavilion, and Alison Wonderland. While the full lineup for the 2016 expansion remains under wraps, organizers have indicated that details regarding the roster and specific onsite offerings will be unveiled in the coming weeks.
Ticket Information and Social Connectivity
Tickets for this highly anticipated New Year’s Eve event are scheduled to go on sale Friday, October 14, at 12:00 PM Pacific Time. Given the sold-out status of previous years, early acquisition is recommended for those planning to attend. Fans can stay updated through the official Countdown website and social media channels including Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.
