Doors open at 12 PM, allowing the crowd to settle into the waterfront atmosphere before the programme builds toward its evening peaks.

CRSSD’s appeal lies in its balance of internationally recognized artists and adventurous underground selections, creating a more intimate alternative to massive EDM festivals. The 2025 edition featured Empire of the Sun, John Summit, Jamie Jones, Elderbrook, Cassian, Purple Disco Machine, Caribou, Ben Böhmer, Boys Noize and DARKSIDE, continuing the festival’s tradition of blending electronic heavyweights with genre-defying live acts. With three distinct stages, panoramic bay views, curated food and drinks, and a vibrant after-dark programme around San Diego, CRSSD Festival Fall 2026 is set to deliver a stylish weekend where contemporary club culture meets the city’s unmistakable coastal character.
