TONIGHT

🧽 THE SPONGES and Friends

The Sponges are bringing their funky, bass-heavy chaos to start your weekend, and they’re not coming alone. XO, Dub Era, and Shepard are on deck to keep the energy high and the grooves filthy. If you like your beats thick and your dance floors wild, you know what to do. PS. tix are only $15!

🏒 San Diego Gulls vs. Colorado Eagles

Tonight @ Pechanga Arena (7PM)

🥁 Los Amigos Invisibles

Tonight @ Music Box (9PM)

Los Amigos Invisibles are rolling in tonight with grooves so tight they should come with a dance floor warning. Funk, disco, and Latin rhythms collide in a set that refuses to let you stand still. If you’re not sweating by the encore, you’re doing it wrong.

🔥 Bad Bunny Dance Night

The beats are loud, the energy’s wild, and the only rule is perreo hasta el suelo. Bad Bunny Dance Night is a reggaeton takeover, spinning Bad Bunny, J Balvin, Karol G, Rosalía, Rauw Alejandro, and more. Can you handle all this heat?

🏀 San Diego Clippers Community Night
