LIGHTS ALL NIGHT was undeniably the place to be on New Year's Eve. After six years of success in Dallas, Texas' largest NYE festival took its vibrant spectacle to El Paso for a double-header of epic proportions. Between the two cities, over 40,000 fans attended LIGHTS ALL NIGHT as it rang in its seventh year of celebration.

Joining fans to bring in 2017 in Dallas on December 30 and 31 were more than five times the amount of artists and performers from any past LIGHTS ALL NIGHT's. Headliners included major U.K. act Above & Beyond, "Starving" ft Hailee Steinfeld hitmaker ZEDD, internationally renowned electronic artist deadmau5 in support of his new studio album W:/2016ALBUM/, NERO (DJ Set), Tchami and RL Grime plus special guest A$AP Ferg among many more electronic and DJ talents. Event organizers Highland Concerts worked tirelessly this year to enhance every detail. Boasting a new stage layout, the event featured two large outdoor areas with bars and food from some of Dallas' most popular food trucks including The Butcher's Son and Gandolfo's, free water stations, top of the line production, dancers and much more.

For its first turn in El Paso on December 31, performers also included artists that appeared in Dallas such as deadmau5 and RL Grime (who played back-to-back sets in both cities), Felix Cartal, Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs (DJ Set), as well as Excision, No Mana and Bijou. Like Dallas, El Paso was treated to a top-tier NYE experience with high-end production and ample amenities.
