Christopher Lawrence at Matriarch LA: Trance Night

Bear Cave Events and Tranceformity are putting a trance and techno night together at Matriarch LA on Friday, December 11, with Christopher Lawrence headlining. Vangar, DJ Ai and Technician are billed in support. If you follow EDM in Los Angeles, this one is aimed squarely at the trance crowd, and it runs late enough to feel like a proper night out.

When: Friday, December 11, 2026, 9:00 PM to 2:00 AM Where: Matriarch Los Angeles, 3680 Wilshire Blvd, Suite 503, Los Angeles, CA 90010 Price: Free with RSVP before 10 PM, otherwise $15 and up Ages: 21+

What to expect

The flyer lists Christopher Lawrence at the top and three support acts underneath: Vangar, DJ Ai and Technician. The listing tags the night as trance and techno, so expect melodic builds and driving, four-on-the-floor sets rather than a bass-heavy bill. The flyer also carries the THT Recordings and epicsounds logos next to the Bear Cave Events and Tranceformity names.

Set times were not published at the time of writing. The night runs five hours, so arriving a little after 9 PM gives you the support sets and the headliner both. Check the Posh page closer to the date in case a schedule goes up.

The venue

Matriarch is a lounge on the fifth floor of a Wilshire Boulevard building in Koreatown, with an outdoor patio. The flyer points to the 5th floor, and the listed address includes Suite 503, so head for the elevators rather than looking for a street-level door. Our Matriarch venue page has more on the room.

Tickets and practical info

The price line on the listing reads free with RSVP before 10 PM, then $15 and up after that. That means getting on the list early is the cheapest way in. Tickets and RSVPs go through Posh. Bring a valid ID, because the night is 21+.

Wilshire Boulevard is busy on a Friday night, so plan your ride in advance and leave extra time for parking or a rideshare drop-off. The night ends at 2 AM, which makes a rideshare home the easy call.

If you collect raves in Los Angeles on your calendar for the holiday season, this is a mid-December date worth holding. For more nights like it, browse the EDM category.
