Electronic Music Events in Los Angeles: What's On in November 2026
Updated 4 min read Elias Iliopoulos
Electronic music events in Los Angeles for November 2026 run from one-off club takeovers at Exchange LA to after-hours parties that only reveal a venue once tickets sell. In Mood's data, 426 house and techno events are confirmed across the city this month, with house outnumbering techno roughly two and a half to one, at 307 against 119 tagged listings (a number of nights carry both tags at once). Mood tracks the full circuit in one place, from superclub one-nighters to the secret-location floors that never make a printed flyer.
The secret-location floor and after-hours circuit
LA's after-hours scene runs close to nightly without ever printing an address. In Mood's data, 178 of this month's 426 house and techno bookings - 42% - list no public venue at all until ticket holders get the location shortly before the date, under recurring names like Uncle Ollie's Penthouse and Perry's Beach. Techno runs even more hidden than house: 71 of November's 119 techno bookings carry no public venue, against 107 of 307 for house.
The Lexington Bar is the closest thing to a fixed home for the circuit that does stay public, running its Nightshift After Hours residency on close to every night in November; Mood rates it 0.8 on undergroundness, among the highest score of any recurring booking tracked in this month's cluster. El Cid and Melody Bar & Grill each carry 8 house bookings this month, and Sound Nightclub and Jungle Hollywood each carry 6 - a tier below the secret-location floor on visibility but well above the superclub circuit, built for a regular crowd rather than a one-off flyer drop.
The club-night tier
Exchange LA carries the sharpest run of one-off dates this month: Electrik Seoul's K-Pop x EDM 360 crossover night on the 7th rates 0.9 on both danceability and energy in Mood's data - the highest of any booking in this cluster, ahead of the room's more straightforward bass and techno dates the same month. Desert Hearts & Justin Martin All Night Long runs Academy LA on the 14th, in the same house-leaning lane as the room's other November dates.
For a harder-edged contrast, Ellen Allien, Laure Croft and Lindsey Herbert play a Beatport-branded date on the 4th that Mood rates 0.8 on undergroundness - double the 0.2 to 0.4 range of Exchange LA's club nights the same month, despite all of them sitting under the same "house" or "techno" tag on a generic listings search.
Smaller rooms and the crossover with the rest of the calendar
Below the club-night tier, a long tail of smaller rooms carries a steadier, more local circuit: Sound Nightclub, Jungle Hollywood, Wonzimer and The Spotlight each run a handful of house or techno dates this month at a smaller capacity and with a more regular, scene-specific crowd than Exchange LA or Academy LA. This overlap is part of why a genre-only search on a generic listings site misses a meaningful share of the month's actual floor-time - plenty of these nights run under event names that don't mention "house" or "techno" at all.
Finding the sound you want
For anyone chasing a specific sound rather than a specific room, Mood's house genre browse for Los Angeles lists the month's confirmed dates in one place, updated as promoters keep announcing through November - useful as much for the secret-location nights, which surface there once an address is attached, as for the club dates booked weeks out.
Frequently Asked Questions
What electronic music events are happening in Los Angeles this month?
November 2026 runs Electrik Seoul's K-Pop x EDM 360 night at Exchange LA on the 7th, Desert Hearts & Justin Martin at Academy LA on the 14th, and a near-nightly Nightshift After Hours residency at The Lexington Bar throughout the month.

Is LA's electronic scene more house or techno?
House-leaning. In Mood's data, house accounts for 307 November listings against 119 for techno, roughly a two-and-a-half-to-one split that points to a groove-led scene rather than one built around the harder four-four end.
How do I find secret-location parties in LA?
Secret-location electronic nights list no public venue until close to the date, when the promoter releases the address to ticket holders. Mood tracks 178 of these listings for November - 42% of the city's house and techno calendar - which is the most reliable way to see that a night exists even before the location drops.
Where can I find underground techno in Los Angeles?
The Lexington Bar's near-nightly Nightshift After Hours residency rates 0.8 on undergroundness in Mood's data, among the highest of any recurring booking this month. Techno also runs more hidden than house overall: 71 of November's 119 techno bookings carry no public venue at all.
