The annual Stellar Spark New Year's Eve bash at the Rave is going extra big for its 20th anniversary.

Even one of the headliners is 7 feet tall.

NBA legend and Giannis super fan Shaquille O'Neal will headline the Milwaukee EDM party, behind his stage name DJ Diesel, on Dec. 30.

But that's just night one. For its 20th anniversary, Stellar Spark is expanding to two nights, with rising dubstep star Svdden Death headlining on Dec. 31. The second night will once again take over multiple stages inside the Rave, including a Latin music-inspired dance party operated by local group Lucky 7 Promo.

A limited number of two-day passes will be available for $79 beginning at 11 a.m. Thursday at therave.com, available with the presale code "Stellar." Two-day passes go on sale to the general public at 11 a.m. Monday; prices have yet to be announced.

Billing itself as the longest-running EDM-oriented New Year's Eve party in the country, Stellar Spark has hosted some of the country's biggest DJs over the years, including Skrillex, Excision, Griz and Dillon Francis.
