LONG BEACH, CA – Serving as a consistent mainstay in SoCal’’s electronic music space, Day Trip Festival celebrated its SOLD OUT third edition at the Queen Mary Waterfront this last weekend, its fourth annual festival in SoCal. The weekend-long, sunshine-filled production of pulsating house and techno music served as the first festival of the summer season, and welcomed thousands of enthusiastic music fans.
The 2024 edition of the festival boasted mind-melting performances from both local LA talent and global electronic music powerhouses. Featured artists include famed house music producer Kaskade, techno-punk wonderboy Boys Noize, Amsterdam-based superstar DJ Mau P, fresh off his viral, weekend closing set last month Insomniac’s Camp EDC, genre-bending visionary Patrick Topping + many more. Adding to the excitement, the first night of Day Trip concluded with a surprise back-to-back set by Cloonee and Green Velvet. This unprecedented collaboration left fans in awe, delivering an intense and rare performance.
In addition, fans were able to completely immerse themselves in a weekend-long rhythmic experience, as hotel rooms aboard the historic Queen Mary ship, just steps away from the festival entrance, were sold-out at full occupancy. And for those who wished to keep the party going, the open-air afterparties on the roof deck of the ocean liner, featuring electrifying sets from Solardo, Ben Sterling, Hannah Watts, and more, kept the spirits grooving until 4 A.M. all weekend-long.
Furthermore, Day Trip 2024 implemented a number of new venue enhancements for attendees, including new cutting-edge stage production to bring the biggest stage designs the festival has featured yet. This year’s edition also introduced more shade structures and a 25% increase in restroom facilities to improve attendee comfort.
Day Trip Festival continues to deliver and influence the SoCal electronic music orbit with best-in-class production value and multi-faceted performances from internationally renowned artists in a summertime celebration of house and techno music.
