After years of throwing successful events in Florida, and decades of events across the country, Insomniac has announced their latest expansion in the Sunshine State. This New Year’s Eve, the industry leading company will be duplicating its famed Countdown NYE festival and bringing it to the East Coast in partnership with Okeechobee Experience. Called Countdown Campout, the 2-day festival will teleport campers to an alien-themed, extraterrestrial universe in Okeechobee, FL.
Countdown Campout Festival
On December 31st and January 1st, dozens of chart-topping acts and emerging artists will come together across three stages to ring in the New Year at Countdown Campout. In fact, Insomniac informs in a press release that at midnight there will be a “moment of epic proportions, showcasing the stunning stage production and intricacies of each costumed Alien performer, as they descend from their mothership UFO at exactly midnight for the festival’s collective and shared experience across each stage.”
In true Insomniac fashion, everyone’s a headliner, especially the festival attendees. Despite the undeniable talent of every act on this bill, there are a handful of artists and special performances worth highlighting.
Some discernible tastemakers celebrating NYE at Countdown Campout include ZHU, SLANDER, Adventure Club, Deorro, Wax Motif, and many more. You can also catch rare DJ sets from Gryffin and Madeon. Moreover, the SoFlo festival features a slew of lady DJs including Daizy, Stellar, Jessica Auddifred, Lizzy Jane, Qrion, Camea, Honey Luv, and COM3T.

While the solo acts are incredibly exciting, the real life-changing moments are bound to happen at the many b2b sets ringing in the New Year. An absolute must-experience is the Flosstradamus b2b Nitti Gritti b2b Valentino Khan set. Additionally, you won’t want to miss out on the deadmau5 b2b Testpilot set, the EDM mogul’s techno alias. Likewise, other b2b sets to check out include Dre Mendez b2b Caleb Dent and Funtcase b2b Doctor P.
