Decadence Arizona 2024 Recap

The tenth annual event Decadence Arizona presented by Relentless Beats took place for the third year at the Phoenix raceway to ring in the new year! This venue was a great place to place memories for the final weekend of 2024.

Thousands of people not just from Arizona but from all around the world came to ring in the new year at the raceway here in Phoenix! Talking to people throughout the two-day festival you would find out where they came from and who their favorite artists they traveled to come see.

This year’s lineup included multiple longitudes of artists ranging from house, trance, and everyones favorite out in Arizona Dubstep. Headliners included ZEDS DEAD, Excision, Eptic B2B space laces, and to close out the year for the ball drop of 2024 John summit!  Also, many more that helped make the NYE experience one not to forget!

Venue and production

Walking into the venue you were greeted by two huge covered stages that made everyone excited to get inside not knowing what is yet to be seen. These being the only 2 stages seen when walking in, you were greeted by many more walking throughout the festival. No matter where you find yourself throughout the festival grounds there are plenty of places to get food, water, merchandise and alcoholic beverages!

The main stage being called the Grand Palace was the main attraction for the biggest headliners. Headliners such as Excision, Dom Dolla, Deadmau5, Tchami X Malaa presenting (No Redemption) , Sidepiece!, and another amazing B2B Crankdat X Riot ten presenting ( DOG EAT DOG). With those being the main headliners, you could also see many more that were not ones to miss.

The stage just across the way was named the Royal Ballroom which was just as big as the grand palace!

Having these two stages very close together it was very easy to walk back and forth to see your favorite artists without walking too far.

One of the smallest stages named the boathouse playhouse was located outside both main stages! This stage mainly included local artists who are up-and-coming and very well-known artists in the rave scene in Arizona. Can’t forget the silent disco, which was also located outside both main stages, this small stage also included 3 stations to listen from, all also including Arizona local DJs!

All stages included amazing sound systems that made everyone’s festival experience more memorable, for those who have been and those who have not. Relentless beats never fail to disappoint!
