Full list of prices at Las Vegas dance festival where it costs $1,000 for a vodka
The full, and incredibly eye-watering, price list at a boujie Las Vegas dance festival where it costs $1,000 for vodka has been revealed.
Now I know what you're thinking, festivals and pricey bottles of alcohol seem like an odd match. But this is Las Vegas, the city of lights and excess, after all.
Festivals in Sin City are therefore jaw-dropping events themselves, with the ongoing Electric Daisy Carnival (EDC) featuring LED sculptures and light shows which rival the glamour of the strip itself.

But with fancy festivals comes inflated prices, and a viral drinks list menu from the festival show that customers will be forking out thousands of dollars for just one bottle of premium spirit.
Macro Edge shared a photo of the event's drinks menu on social media, revealing the jaw-dropping prices EDC was charging for alcohol.
The prices included forking out up to $63,000 for a single bottle of Methuselah (which is a 6L bottle of Champagne - no, I didn't know that either) or $140 for a six-pack of Bud Light. Eh?!
No longer interested in getting yourself an alcoholic drink? Don't worry, as there's also bottles of Smart Water or Prime priced at a much more reasonable $90.
Check out the full menu below:
"For $90 you think they’d at least offer a better water than smart water," one person replied, while a second commented: "Some of those are over 50x markup. Insane."
"Actually decent for Vegas," a third person joked.
Another reply featured an EDC menu from 2018, where a pack of smart water was $75 and Bud Light was $80. "Here’s pricing from 2018 for inflation purposes," they added.
But why are the prices so high, you ask? Turns out it has a lot to do with the concept of bottle service.
Explaining the inflated prices, Casino.org explained that this particular menu is for the 'elevated viewing decks' where bottles come with a table allowing for 'prime stage view' and a VIP access wristband.
Billed as the 'most exclusive experience' at EDC, purchasing a bottle of alcohol at that price also comes with a golf cart ride to your table - which also allows the buyer to let everyone around them know how much money they've spent.
For anyone looking to go to a more traditional 'walk-up' bar, expect to still pay premium prices for your drink, however this is around $25 for alcohol, meaning that you won't need to remortgage your house or sell a kidney in order to enjoy your night.
