Insomniac Events and the folks at Triad Dragons are gearing up for the the fourth annual Electric Daisy Carnival at the Arapahoe County Fairgrounds. Expect plenty of carnival rides, massive, light-infused art installations, and, of course, scads of beautiful, painted faces supporting the carnival ambiance.

While previous headliners have included the likes of Benny Benassi, Paul Van Dyk and Kaskade, this year's bill boasts Kaskade, Sander Van Doorn and Kraddy, among others. The full lineup -- which is subject to change, according to the folks at EDC -- is posted below. With the date being so close, though, we venture a guess that this is probably about as close to final as it gets, save for some last minute changes and surprise acts.
