DJ Lag Flies the South African Flag High at EDC Las Vegas with Bridges for Music

This past weekend, DJ Lag lit up the desert with two powerful performances at EDC Las Vegas — one of the world’s most iconic electronic music festivals. With over 500,000 attendees and all passes sold out, this year’s edition was a massive celebration of global dance culture.

Lag performed on the Ubuntu by Bridges for Music stage across two nights, delivering genre-blending sets that showcased his depth as both a producer and DJ. The stage celebrated artists connected to the African continent, making space for bold, future-facing sounds.

He shared the lineup with fellow South African stars Uncle Waffles and Da Capo, alongside international acts like DJ Karaba from Canada and Nigeria’s Sarz—all artists pushing African-rooted electronic music into exciting new territory.

It was a milestone moment for the culture, and DJ Lag brought it home in true style.
