Beyond Wonderland Socal 2021 Lineup Revealed

As the shortened festival season continues to shape up for the summer and fall, promoters across the country are driving forward with some truly massive lineup announcements. The latest to join in on the news spree is Insomniac Events as they’ve delivered the details on who will be playing their forthcoming edition of Beyond Wonderland SoCal that is now scheduled to take place on August 27-28 after being moved from its original dates in June.

Announced during Pasquale Rotella’s State Of Insomniac update late this evening, Beyond Wonderland SoCal will feature some of the scene’s top talent and rising stars who will descend upon the expanded version of the NOS Events Center for a weekend of fun. Immediate standouts on the lineup include Dillon Francis, Laidback Luke, Alison Wonderland, Markus Schulz, Tiesto, Deorro, and Diplo, but that’s just the tip of the iceberg.

There’s just about every major genre within the vast dance music scene represented on the lineup for Beyond SoCal this year. Bass lovers will be stoked to catch sets from Subtronics, Flosstradamus, Wooli, and Space Laces. Trance family members will be stoked to see that Craig Connelly, Andrew Bayer, Kristina Sky, Genix, Infected Mushroom, and Jerome Isma-ae have found a home on the bill as well. And yes, even the harder styles will be receiving some love with sets courtesy of Lil Texas, Darksiderz, and Code Black among others.

The big winner on the lineup this year goes to house and techno though, as the lineup is teeming with talent there. House heads will be shuffling away to the beats from artists including Lee Foss, DJ Dan, Born Dirty, VNSSA, Christian Martin, and Walker & Royce. And techno lovers should have no fear with artists like Nicole Moudaber, UMEK, Dubfire, Ilario Alicante, Layton Giordani, Anfisa Letyago, and Carl Craig set to spin.

Per their previous announcement about the shift in dates to August, those who had purchased passes can either attend this edition, transfer them to 2022, or request a refund. Those not planning to attend must act quickly, though as the window to make that change will close on May 11, 2021 at 11:59pm PT.

Beyond Wonderland at the Gorge 2021 Lineup


The dance music scene in the Pacific Northwest might’ve had some ups and downs over the past few years, but Insomniac Events is looking to help reignite the community. Last year, they set their sights on one of the world’s most picturesque venues, The Gorge, for the latest edition of their beloved festival, Beyond Wonderland. But while the debut edition was unfortunately forced to postpone due to the pandemic, greener pastures in 2021 have led to it now being announced for the fall.

Now set to take place on October 1-2, Beyond Wonderland at The Gorge will bring over 65 artists from a diverse range of genres with immediate standouts on the lineup being major names such as Alan Walker, Benny Benassi, Feed Me, Kayzo, Claptone, Alison Wonderland, REZZ, and Tiesto. And there’s a heavy helping of rising stars in the scene including everyone from John Summit and Capozzi to Moore Kismet and Nostalgix who will be throwing down epic sets over the course of the weekend.

Beyond Wonderland at The Gorge will also feature plenty more beyond the music as well. True to form, Insomniac will bring their signature production to the beloved venue to add an extra layer of immersion. While the three stages (Fractal Valley, Cheshire Woods, and Caterpillar’s Garden) will be booming with beats, there’s even more in store as the storybook adventure with art installations and interactive experiences. And unlike other editions of the festival, camping will be available for those looking to stay on site and party until the early hours of the morning at the silent disco.

The LIB team have also done a lot to reinvest back into their community and culture, managing to build up a dedicated following year after year.

Hard Summer (San Bernadino) – August

In its formative years HARD Summer became a peak summer draw for any electronic music fan. From the biggest headliners to attention-grabbing undercards, curation and branding have been consistent strong suits.

Hard Summer is a unbelievablly fun festival that is a must attend for any EDM fan.

Beyond Wonderland (San Bernadino) – March

Insomniac festivals are all about community, atmosphere and providing their guests with the best soundsystem money can buy. Beyond Wonderland is argued to be the best of the best of EDM festivals in Cali. The fantasy theme of the festival is widely embraced by its patrons creating a setting that keeps attendees savoring every moment. The experience is unrivaled and with the success of Nocturnal Wonderland, Beyond Wonderland became a sister-brand that would bring the focus back toward the fantastical environments that brought Insomniac its fame.

Countdown NYE (San Bernadino) – New Years Eve

California is truly fortunate to have multiple New Year’s festivals to choose from. In particular, we should give Countdown NYE a special look. The extraterrestrial-themed festival does not hesitate to bring the heavy hitters. The festival attracts the biggest names in EDM and hosts one of the best New Years Eve parties in the state. When looking to celebrate the new year, Countdown in San Bernardino has you covered.

Dreamstate Socal (San Bernadino) – November

Insomniac’s Dreamstate SoCal calls to trance fans from all over the world – and there are a lot of them. From uplifting to psytrance, many forget that trance music is an umbrella that includes numerous different subcultures. Dreamstate puts the spotlight on these trance subgenres and explores them from the unique perspectives of popular DJs that are not often seen elsewhere. The festival is world reknowned and celebrated by die-hard EDM fans.

Hard Day of the Dead (San Bernadino) – November

For festival goers seeking something in between Halloween and the holiday season, HARD Day of the Dead is perhaps your best bet. This one day event brings huge EDM artists and upwards of 70,000 fans together to celebrate “Dia de los Muertos.” The EDM played has no focus, which is fantastic for those looking to diversify their experience.

Groove Island (Catalina Island) – October

Unlike Fyre Festival, Whet Travel, the company behind Groove Island, has over a decade of experience organizing some of the most successful dance music cruises and island parties, all 43 of which gone off with hardly a hitch. Rather than attempting to build an entire islands worth of infrastructure and accommodations, Groove Island tapped into the already robust local economy of the city of Avalon. The local community was incredibly warm and welcoming, and the food and accommodations were excellent, to say the least.

“It’s a fully immersive experience on Catalina… We rented the majority of the hotels, A‌i‌r‌b‌n‌b‌s, part of the campground, the [Descanso] Beach Club, the casino, the country club, plus ferries, helicopters, yachts and so forth to get people on the island,” said Jason Beukema, the founder of Groove Island.

As guests arrived on the island by way of the Catalina Ferry, they were greeted with a view of the beautiful Avalon Bay and the city of Avalon – what would become their own personal paradise for the next three days. A popular tourist destination for well over a century, Avalon is home to a top-notch assortment of restaurants, beaches, spas, land and ocean adventures, as well as a whole slew of awesome recreational activities. Some of the most exciting opportunities (aside from the music, of course) included an escape room with Sam Feldt, soccer with Mark Knight, a zipline course with Dillon Nathaniel, and an ocean snorkeling adventure with Chus & Ceballos.

CRSSD (San Diego) – March, September

CRSSD is a 2-Day Festival in downtown San Diego, and happens TWICE a year! They’ve always got a star-studded line-up across three stages, in a beautiful venue, and dozens of after-hours events to choose from after the festival ends. I’ve been once myself, and had an unbelievably fun time! It’s one of the best music festivals in San Diego, and shouldn’t be missed if you’re heading to southern-California when it’s going down!

Splash House (Palm Springs) – June & August (2 weekends)

Splash House is what you get when you mix up fun-loving people, with some rocking LA pool parties, and an escape to sunny Palm Springs, California. It’s a little slice of paradise where friendships are forged as people dance to the best in house, disco, and electronica.

Splash House takes place across three hotel resorts in both June and August. Buy a ticket and you get admission to all three, plus shuttles running between all weekend. Buy a hotel package and you can enjoy a room just steps away from the stage in addition to access to all three resorts.

By night, we take flight at the Palm Springs Air Museum for our After Hours program – a pair of open air parties back-dropped by vintage aircraft and a glowing airport tarmac. After Hours admission is sold separately and may be purchased with or without a Splash House ticket.”

Northern Califonia

Outside Lands (San Francisco) August

Outside Lands Music Festival is one of the most popular music festivals featured in San Francisco and is known for being Northern California’s largest music festival. The established late summer attraction draws a diverse mix of EDM talent. Outside Lands feels like a pop-up city with a mission to showcase the best of the Bay Area. In addition to the top-tier music played, Outside Lands has expanded, including a dedicated food and wine area, a comedy and podcast tent as well as much, much more.

The Untz Festival (Brown Valley) October

The Untz festival brings a diverse offering of underground bass music to central California for their very own music festival. The Untz have staked their ground in promoting the exploration of hidden talent. True to their reputation, lineups have helped their calling serving as blueprints for the best in up and coming bass music. If you’re looking for new and upcoming artists/sounds this is the place you want to be.

Snowglobe (Tahoe) – New Year’s Eve

Last but definitely not least on our list is Snowglobe. If you’re looking to escape to California’s colder climate for the holidays, you may want to book those New Year’s plans at the SnowGlobe Music Festival. Winter festivals have been growing quickly in popularity, and SnowGlobe’s focus on Lake Tahoe’s snowboarding and skiing have been a contributing factor to this popular trend. With an average of 10,000 attendees, the event has a cozier feel while simultaneously drawing in the main stage acts consistent with festivals much bigger.
