Benny Benassi at Time Nightclub, Costa Mesa

Benny Benassi, the Italian producer who put "Satisfaction" on dance floors in the early 2000s, takes over Time Nightclub in Costa Mesa on Saturday, October 24. GRLSKOUT is on the bill too. It sits a little south of the city, but if you are mapping out EDM in Los Angeles and Orange County this month, this is a headline night worth the drive.

When: Saturday, October 24, 2026, doors at 10:00 PM, running until about 2:00 AM Where: Time Nightclub, 1875 Newport Blvd, Costa Mesa, CA 92627 Ages: 21+ Tickets: Through TicketWeb, linked below (price not listed on the venue page)

What to expect

Benassi built his name on electro house: big, distorted bass lines, tight drum programming and hooks that stay in your head for days. His early hits crossed over into the mainstream, and his sets tend to lean on that history while mixing in newer club material. Expect a peak-hour set that rewards arriving before midnight.

GRLSKOUT is billed as support, so the early part of the night should build toward the headliner rather than sit empty. The venue lists the event as a late-night club show, with doors at 10 PM, so plan on a full evening on the floor.

Getting there

Time Nightclub is on Newport Boulevard in Costa Mesa, close to the 55 freeway. From most of LA it is a drive of an hour or more depending on traffic, and Saturday night traffic on the 405 and 5 can stretch that. Rideshare is the easy answer for a night out, and it keeps you off the road after a 2 AM finish. Bring a valid ID, since the night is strictly 21 and over.

If you are comparing options for LA events this weekend, this show is one of the few with a headliner of this size playing a mid-sized room instead of a festival field. Check the ticket page for current availability, because club nights with a name like this often move from advance tiers to higher pricing as the date gets closer.

Plan your night

• Buy through the official TicketWeb link rather than a resale listing.
• Arrive close to doors if you want room near the front.
• Confirm set times with the venue closer to the date, since they were not published at the time of writing.
