Home Editorials Countdown NYE 2024: Revisiting favorite moments with past artists

As artists gear up to end the year on a high note with massive performances at Countdown NYE, we asked them to reflect on their favorite moments from past editions of the festival.

Insomniac’s Countdown NYE stands out as one of the year’s most anticipated festivals, uniting fans and artists to celebrate the end of one chapter and the beginning of another. The 2024 edition promises an unforgettable experience, with a stacked lineup featuring Alesso, Deorro, Lilly Palmer, Zedd, Chris Lake, Zomboy, and more. Hosted annually at the NOS Events Center in San Bernardino, CA, Countdown transforms New Year’s Eve into an electrifying alien invasion, blending futuristic stage designs with out-of-this-world performances.

As the journey to 2025 kicks off, we invited past performers to share their most treasured memories from previous editions of the festival. From debut sets to unforgettable collaborations, these stories reveal the energy, passion, and magic that make Countdown New Year’s Invasion the ultimate way to welcome the New Year. Check out what they had to say!

“Countdown 2022 was unforgettable. It was my first time playing the festival, and I had an early slot. I went into it with a ‘just happy to be here’ mindset and was blown away by the massive turnout. The energy from the crowd was so humbling and gave me incredible motivation during the early stages of my touring career.”

“We’ve played Countdown a few times, with our last performance in 2018. It’s always an amazing party to celebrate New Year’s Eve. The crowd is so engaging and energetic, and we love spending time backstage with other artists. We can’t wait to ring in 2025 with everyone and create even more unforgettable memories!”

“One of my favorite Countdown memories was performing at the Twilight Zone Stage as we welcomed the New Year. The energy, the vibes, and the crowd were all at an all-time high. I was lucky enough to have friends like Matroda and AC Slater stop by my set so we could celebrate together. It was such a special moment.”
