The Ultimate 70s Party @ Utopia Bar & Lounge

Disco balls, platform shoes and a whole lot of soul are landing on Pico Boulevard when Utopia Bar & Lounge throws The Ultimate 70s Party on Saturday, October 3. It is one of those things to do in Los Angeles this weekend that skips the velvet-rope pretension and just asks you to show up ready to dance. The night doubles as a joint birthday celebration for a crew of regulars, but tickets are open to anyone who wants in on the celebration.

What to expect

Dee Jay Paradise takes the booth for the whole night, working through funk, soul and disco cuts built for a packed floor. Expect deep cuts alongside the obvious classics: the kind of set where the DJ reads the room and keeps it moving rather than sticking to a rigid playlist. Doors open at 8 PM and the party runs until 2 AM, so there is plenty of time to grab a drink at the bar, catch up with friends, and still be out on the floor before the night winds down.

Costumes are encouraged but not required. Bell-bottoms, platform shoes, and anything with fringe will fit right in, though plenty of guests show up in regular going-out clothes and have just as much fun. If you have been scrolling through things happening in Los Angeles looking for something that is not another generic club night, a themed party with a real DJ and a specific sound is a solid bet.

Where and when

When: Saturday, October 3, 2026, 8 PM to 2 AM Where: Utopia Bar and Lounge, 5047 W Pico Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90019 Price: $10 general admission Tickets: Via AllEvents.in

Getting there and practical info

Utopia Bar and Lounge sits on West Pico Boulevard, an easy drive from Mid-City, Koreatown or the Fairfax district. Street parking along Pico can be tight on weekend nights, so budget a few extra minutes to find a spot or plan for a rideshare, especially since the party runs past midnight. For anyone building out a full evening of LA events this weekend, this one pairs well with a dinner stop nearby before the DJ set gets going around 9 or 10 PM, once the floor starts to fill in.

Tickets are $10 general admission and available in advance through AllEvents.in; arriving early is the safer bet if you want to skip a potential line closer to 9 or 10 PM. As with most bar events, bring a valid ID.

Why go

Themed nights like this one do not stick around on the calendar for long, and a birthday crowd throwing a party open to the public usually means a warmer room than your average Saturday out. If disco and funk are your speed, or you just want an excuse to dust off a good 70s look, The Ultimate 70s Party is a solid pick among upcoming events Los Angeles has going this week.
