# Extreme Thing

Das Extreme Thing (kompletter Name: Extreme Thing Sports and Music Festival) ist ein Sport- und Musikfestival, dass seit 2001 jährlich im Desert Breeze Park bei Las Vegas, Nevada ausgerichtet wird. Es gibt zwei Hauptbühnen, auf denen jeweils 7 weltweit bekannte Bands spielen und zwei Seitenbühnen, auf denen sieben bekanntere Newcomer-Gruppen auftreten. Auch gibt es eine Bühne auf dem mehrere Dubstep-DJs auflegen. Zudem sind sportliche Nebenveranstaltungen organisiert, zum Beispiel BMX und Wrestling.
Auf der „International Academy of Design & Technology Stage“ haben die sieben Contest-Gewinner die Möglichkeit auf dem Festival zu spielen. Die Auftritte aller Bands auf dieser Bühne werden von Studenten der International Academy of Design & Technology aufgenommen und zu Musik-DVDs produziert, sodass die Gruppen diese später vertreiben können.
2011 besuchten knapp 25,000 Menschen das Festival.
