Time Warp Los Angeles (Los Angeles, CA, United States) 2026

Time Warp Los Angeles 2026 takes place on Friday 27 and Saturday 28 November 2026 at ACE Mission in Los Angeles, with both days running from 14:00 to 02:00. It is the first Time Warp in Los Angeles, the event is 21+, and the full line-up of 40 names has been published on the official website.

What is Time Warp Los Angeles?

Time Warp is the Mannheim techno festival that has run since 1994 and exports its format carefully: New York, Sao Paulo, Madrid, Mexico City and now Los Angeles. The official announcement describes the Los Angeles edition as “the core experience” rather than a spin-off: two days, three floors, and a production built on the lighting and sound standard the German event is known for.

The site is ACE Mission, a campus of warehouses and sound studios east of downtown. Time Warp says it is opening “never-before-used warehouses” there for a raw, industrial setting, which is close to the brand’s own description of what it stands for: focus on the music, the sound and the experience, with no distractions.

Who is playing Time Warp Los Angeles 2026?

The official line-up, listed alphabetically, mixes the Time Warp regulars with house names and a few back-to-backs built for the occasion. Richie Hawtin, Ben Klock, Loco Dice, Rødhåd, Helena Hauff and Blawan carry the techno side. The Martinez Brothers, Dennis Ferrer, Gerd Janson, Luuk van Dijk, East End Dubs and Ahmed Spins cover house. The announced pairings are Blawan b2b Elli Acula, D.Dan b2b Freddy K, Dennis Ferrer b2b Skream, Gerd Janson b2b Julya Karma, Heidi Lawden b2b Masha Mar, Helena Hauff b2b Juliana Huxtable, Quest b2b Ryan Elliott and SPFDJ b2b TOCCORORO.

The rest of the bill: Chlär, Cloudy, Colored Craig, Desiree, Fun2Bjane, Funk Tribu, HAAi, INVT, John Bryars, Novah, ØTTA, ONYVAA, ØNYX, SOSA, southstar and Tiga. Set times and floor allocations had not been published by 8 October 2026.

How much are Time Warp Los Angeles tickets?

Tickets are sold through the official Front Gate Tickets page linked from time-warp.de. In October 2026 the shop listed a 2-Day General Admission ticket and a 2-Day Stage Access ticket, both 21+ only; prices are shown at checkout and change by sales phase, so check the official page. The German edition, Time Warp Germany 2027, follows on 3 April 2027 in Mannheim.

When and where does it happen?

Friday 27 November and Saturday 28 November 2026, 14:00 to 02:00 each day, at ACE Mission in Los Angeles. The venue sits on the east side of the city; the organisers had not published travel or parking details on the event page by early October, so expect that information closer to the date. If you are following the Time Warp tour, Time Warp Mexico runs the weekend before (20 and 21 November) and Time Warp New York on the same dates in Brooklyn. Every upcoming date is on our techno festivals calendar.
