Help me form my travel list for top massives/parties around the world

I’m totally sick of the whole massive scene in the Los Angeles area (EDC, TAO, MM, Nocturnal,etc. are mostly ruined thanks to Dave Guetta cross-over effect). So I’m looking to venture out of town with my crew (luckily I know some of the few EDM people with disposable income). If any of you have been to a really good massive/party event and can comment, please advise so I can put together a good list.

Just so you know, musically I like Trance, esp. German and UK with heavy baseline and high energy (not so much the dreamy, slower bpm, overly melodic, with 5 minute breakdown (minus all bass) style of the dutch). That being said, the main focus is to party and have a good time, and I do like other genres such as tech house, electro house, progressive. Any thoughts would be helpful - esp. youtube video examples of the party. Especially interested in things which are cheaper and off the radar screen a bit. Here’s kinda what I was thinking…

WMC/Ultra (Miami) - on the list for pure debauchery. my bad for not going yet.

Sensation White (Eastern Europe ideally) – I’m kinda torn between the original and checking out the eastern european scene which prolly has hotter women and they’re more into harder trance I think.

Trance Energy (Netherlands ) – this seems like a must go since i love trance.

Nature One (Germany) – I know it’s more techno oriented, but I feel like I must go somewhere in Germany

Creamfields (England) – also open to anything else in UK.

Dance Valley (Netherlands) - just looks like crazy fun; don’t know much.

Bal En Blanc (Montreal) – heard it was fun and my friend knows some peeps there. Might be too small, inconsequential to attend? Anyone been?

Full Moon Rave (Ko Pha Ngan, Thailand) – just wanna party on the beach – which one is the best?

Mexico city has some kind of sensation white type event in stadium – anyone been to that or any south American type event?

Steer clear of the Roman empire - they plain just don't like you. Balkans will be a cakewalk, you could that twice, actually. Then there's France, towards Orl�ans.

Although if I were I would work on spelling my own name, Attila.

bal en blanc is really fun if you have horrible taste in music.

i don't care if the party gets 15000 to 20000 people per year, it still doesn't make me able to listen to offer nissim.

it used to be an awesome party though.

haha. i love it when ta's get pissy! it's like foodies who get upset if you say you like in and out burger. I didn't really describe which Dj's I like (just genres), so I don't know why you think I'd like offer nissim (definitely not my style). I like your countryman Giuseppe Ottaviani (but not ur more famous countryman Benny Benassi). I like PVD, alex morph, simon patterson, john o'bir, john o'callaghan, tom colontonio, svd, digweed, sasha, etc. generally anything upbeat with heavy bass in terms of a festival type massive event.

If you like trance, last year's Bal en Blanc's headliners were Sander Van Doorn, Ferry Corsten, Markus Schulz and Sied Van Riel.
