One year ago, Congress defunded public media. Now that we're 100% community funded, please become a sustaining member or increase your existing membership today.

For the dance ready who aren't looking to haul their cookies all the way to the OC for Pacific Festival, or for those who simply prefer an urban park in which to boogie, this Saturday, dublab presents…HEATING UP: A TROPICAL DANCE PARTY at Levitt Pavilion in MacArthur Park from 6:30- 8:30 p.m.

"An evening of sweaty dance rhythms and soulful sabor from some of dublab’s favorite super shakers," boasts their summer schedule. A Hoseh DJ set kicks off at 6:30 p.m., followed by El-Haru Kuroi live at 7:00 p.m. and Mochilla DJ set with a live special guest at 7:45 p.m. The show is free and all ages.

One year ago, Congress voted to defund public media, eliminating a critical $1.7 million from our budget every year going forward. But they couldn’t silence us, and we’re not going anywhere. LAist is now 100% community funded and that means we’re taking our future into our own hands and turning to you to keep local reporting strong.
