LAS VEGAS, Nevada (KVVU) — A woman who was pregnant and not due for weeks had her Electric Daisy Carnival experience cut short. She went into labor at the music festival.

”Yeah she decided to come out this weekend,” said Cristina Celis.

Celis was enjoying her time at EDC the highlight of her year, she’s gone now for five years. This time it was no different.

“We were there for the whole weekend Friday, Saturday. Friday felt fine, Saturday felt completely fine, then just vibing to the music,” she said.

At 32 weeks pregnant she was taking it easy, but it was during artist Zedd’s performance, something felt odd.

“Out of nowhere on Saturday night I started to get some weird pains, it’s my first baby so I wasn’t sure what I was feeling,” Celis said.

After a quick trip to the medic at the rave, she said she was in an ambulance on her way to University Medical Center.

“Within not even an hour of everything they transferred me within 30 mins to this hospital and within 15 minutes she was here,” said Celis.

Six weeks early, little Izzabella Daisy Garcia was born.
