About TIME Nightclub

TIME Nightclub is a club in The Triangle, the shopping and entertainment complex in downtown Costa Mesa, Orange County, on Newport Boulevard near the end of the Costa Mesa (55) Freeway. It opened in September 2016 in the former Niketown space under a dome, replacing the nearby club Sutra, and is run by the Newport Beach company Identity Management Group, which launched it with a soft opening featuring Markus Schulz.

The venue covers about 14,000 square feet, with a spacious dancefloor surrounded by tiered booth seating, full-service bars and an immersive lighting system; when it opened, a custom chandelier with more than 5,000 programmable orbs hung above the dancefloor. It opens on Friday and Saturday nights, from 22:00 to 02:00, and books mainly EDM and dance acts, with guests in autumn 2026 including Timmy Trumpet, TOKiMONSTA, Eli and Fur, Benny Benassi, Cosmic Gate and Danny Avila. Past headliners include Tiësto, Steve Aoki and Paul van Dyk.
