Samuel Moriero LA Debut at 1720 Warehouse

Samuel Moriero plays Los Angeles for the first time on Saturday, October 17, 2026, and he's doing it at 1720, the warehouse on East 16th Street at the south edge of downtown. The promoters behind it are WA$TED and TRINITY, and they've billed him as one of the fastest rising names in the underground. If you keep a running list of LA EDM events worth leaving the house for, a first-ever local set from a headliner is a good reason to add one more.

The lineup

Moriero headlines. Two support acts are on the flyer: ENERG and LOLA. The organizer, Wasted Presents, describes itself as a crew bringing bass music and hard dance to California and Texas, so that's a fair guide to the energy they book for. Debut shows tend to pull the people who've been following an artist online and waiting for a date close to home, and that crowd usually shows up early.

The flyer art sets the tone: Moriero mid-set with an arm in the air, snow coming down over the decks. It's a cold image for a mid-October night in LA, but it fits a room that runs hot.

It's a costume party

This one doubles as a Halloween costume party two weeks before the actual holiday. Costumes are encouraged, and the listed dress code is "costume, casual or festival." You won't get turned away for jeans. You'll just be underdressed next to the people who went all in.

The promoters say lines get long and strongly suggest arriving early. Take that seriously on a costume night, since ID checks slow down when half the line is in masks and face paint. 1720 sits in an industrial pocket east of the Fashion District, and street parking gets scarce as the night fills up. A rideshare drop-off saves you the circling, especially at 2 a.m.

For more EDM Los Angeles nights, the EDM category has the full calendar, and the downtown page collects what's happening in DTLA. If you're hunting for things to do in Los Angeles in mid-October that come with a costume excuse, this is an early one. Bring the ID, and bring a costume that can survive a warehouse floor for five hours.
