Mmmm I haven't done one in a while so I could check it out but last time I did one they all showed. will report back later with findings.
Did you go immediately when the message came up? If left for long enough all the Ravers will turn into Supa Trolls, then eventually wander off and despawn.

Ravers come out a door and "party" at the location.
The "Supra Trolls" come out a door and move to specific other locations in the zone.

The glowing troll Ravers spawn in and run to the rave location where they congregate and "party" but after a certain amount of time individuals will run to a specific nearby door and come out as Supa Trolls, which then run to other locations in the zone (mainly the Skyway gate and near the Yellow Line).|

To the OP: I was just at a Troll rave yesterday on Protector and it operated normally (it was the West side location).

I've gotten the badge on several characters, both before and after the warnings were added. The glowing Trolls go into the building and then come back out as Supa Trolls, which is why you sometimes won't find anything but the police barracades there if you go late enough. The game still considers the rave to be in progress, but all of the participants have wandered off. If the OP is going late enough, that may be why they're not finding any Trolls, which is what we're trying to determine. If they're going immediately when the message comes up, then yes, the Rave may be broken.

I don't care how many times you've earned the badge. Nothing you said conflicts with what I said. I just didn't say the Ravers eventually go back inside. Big deal. They're still separate enemies. Just because the "story" is written to appear like they go inside and drug-up, doesn't mean it's the same character actually coming back outside. Supra Trolls will come out whether Ravers go in the door or not. |

Either way, ur right, the point is that the event is technically still in progress all night until the Supa Trolls disappear, even though the "site" may not look active. This map shows the paths the Supa Trolls typically make. As Katze meant to point out, they end up around the Yellow Line train and the Hollows Gate (you are already in Skyway silly,
).
Having gotten the badge on several toons as well, I'm aware of the mechanics. 
I've also gotten a response from NCSoft noting that there is a bug report on this now, so something is wonky with the raves. As a little more of a follow up, I've been sitting in Skyway on the Justice server for quite a bit (well over 10 mins), long enough for it to become daylight and the rave is still going on. It may just be that the timer has some how gotten "stuck". On top of that, it's the same spot I noticed earlier in the day when I logged on several times during the day.
Throwing darts at the board to see if something sticks.....
Come show your resolve and fight my brute!

Sounds like it just needs a zone reset then.. unless it's repeatable after the morning maintenance as well... in which case it might be a little harder to find out why the event is "sticking". lol|

I'm gonna keep an eye out on Freedom and see what happens.
You may be quite correct that it may only be a Server reset. I'd checked Skyway again before going on a Kahn TF and the "rave" was still going on in the west location. Came out of the Kahn and it was still going on, same location. 21+ minutes later, still going on, same location. Justice Server.

Was working fine for me today on Pinnacle. my poor kin/elec body is covered with the bootprints of trolls running over me as i jumped down into the middle of them, thinking i might actually be able to do something.. 
This was BEFORE morning maintenance, FWIW.

Looks like things are back to normal for the raves on Justice. Probably morning maintenance fixed it.

Not sure if it's been mentioned here or not, but it seems the Troll Rave is broken. Been to the location twice and the police are there making a stand but no Ravers and no Suppa Trolls. A friend of mine had wanted to work on the badges and had noticed the problem so I'd double checked for her to confirm.
