Electric Zoo recently announced it would be returning to New York City. The fate of the festival had been uncertain after festival organizers had to cancel the third day of last year's event due to two attendees dying from drug overdoses and another being sexually assaulted.
They've made some changes to this year's event to increase safety and health measures, including drug sniffing dogs and undercover narcotics officers. Today, they announced the first round of artists for its sixth edition.
Topping the bill this year are David Guetta, Armin Van Buuren and Kaskade along with Dada Life, Nicky Romero, Dmitri Vegas & Like Mike, Zedd, Knife Party, Laidback Luke, Alesso, Jack U, and Dash Berlin.
Other notable acts include Wolfgang Gartner, Zeds Dead, Datsik, Jamie xx, Benny Benassi, and more.
The lineup was expected to be released after Kaskade tweeted about his excitement for headlining the festival. Electric Zoo takes place on Randall's Island in New York City over Labor Day weekend (August 29-31).
