Portola Festival: San Francisco’s Most Electric Weekend

September 20–21, 2025 marks the return of Portola Music Festival, the city's most pulse-pounding celebration of electronic music, art, and culture. Held at the industrial-chic Pier 80 waterfront venue, this two-day experience brings together a global lineup of DJs, producers, and genre-bending performers in a spectacular setting you won’t forget.

Portola is where the underground meets the mainstream — from soaring synths and house legends to experimental beats and immersive visuals. Whether you're a die-hard raver or just there for the vibe, it's a festival that lives up to the hype.

What to Expect

• Back-to-back sets from world-class electronic artists
• Sweeping city and bay views as your festival backdrop
• Food, drinks, and chill-out zones when you need a breather
• Easy access via Muni, BART, or rideshare from SoMa House

The crowd? Eclectic, stylish, and buzzing with energy. The music? Loud, layered, and unforgettable. The location? Just a quick ride from your hotel door.
