EVPN creates a virtual layer 2 domain, aka a vlan, that can span the
internet or be used on a plain old layer 2 switch. It uses vxlan or mpls
tunnels and BGP to coordinate. EVPN has support for multiple active/active
exits, something almost like lacp. There can be load balancing using layer
3 headers as key, which might be exactly what OP is looking for.

EVPN elimates layer 2 flooding by keeping a database of MAC addresses in
BGP. Otherwise it behaves exactly like a vlan with extra features.
