Hey everyone! I was wondering if there’s any fun edm events or spots to hit on Sundays? Preferably during the day or early night? Any edm like techno, house etc. I wanted to do something today (04/19) but idk if there’s anything going on. Thank you!

And dont tell me 19hz lol. That site just have a list of tons of parties. There's no way for me to tell which one of them will be good.

Seems like the raves parties are either overpriced insomniac events that are rapidly costing 200+ per day or shady wharehouse in el centro.

I miss the good old days of mid tier party at the Hudson or the shrine. What are some good plur parties that doesnt end up costing hundreds?

Anyone from LA traveling to Tomorrowland Weekend 2? Would be great to connect when there. We’re camping in Montague so will be there starting Thursday night.

Anyone know if there’s good shi happening this Saturday around LA? I have friends from out of town I wanna show them a good time!!! Thanks!!

What are some good small raves?? I went to countdown LA this past year and I was overstimulated with how many people there was so I left. I want a rave that may be like a club size amount of people nothing too crazy

I’ve been going to raves every weekend for the past two months and techno and hardstyle is all they play. I’m craving some gabber or hard house. Do yall know abt any events tn?

I’m from the Bay Area, now in LA for school, and I’ve been looking for the underground raves similar to the Bay Area, but for some reason, I’ve been completely unable to. Every big rave venue (like Code Red, etc) is really boring, and there’s rarely any alternative people- so I stick out like a sore thumb. Similarly, I haven’t been able to find any punk venues/ anything like that in LA- everything I see is in San Diego 🥲🥲 

If there are any venues/pages you’d recommend, please feel free to comment or message me :) 

What should a out of towner know about the rave scene in LA. I'll be there throughout the first week of May, and I've never been before. I'm from the northeast where we hippies and wooks rave in big warehouses and the woods and love dubstep, melodic hardstyles, camping, community, and we're huge on PLUR (peace love unity respect). I'm used to a friendly, safe, loving community where everyone you know makes music and super nice. The rave wear is eccentric, weird, colorful, handmade, and everyone wears kandi and hands out kandi. What is LA like? I'm thinking of buying tickets to CORE LA. Where else should I go? What else is happening? Where are the afters? How to stay safe as a female solo raver in LA

Im (31M) planning to go solo. New in town. Any tips for the venue? Im planning to get there before 11 for the free entry thing. Good idea? Bad? All i want is to let loose and break my neck to some bangers.

Hello,

Do you know if any of the stores are doing in-store DJ sets or hosting London-style parties? I remember Phonica in London always had a great one, just wondering if there’s something like that in LA.

and any recs for taco trucks after in that area?
