Surrounded by towering skyscrapers on all sides, Los Angeles' Skyline Festival lived up to its name by engulfing the streets of downtown with the hard-hitting beats of techno and house music.

The Insomniac Events production absorbed three city blocks for two days of dance music utopia. Using the elegant city hall tower as its anchor, the festival went with a more minimalistic approach in design in 2025, utilizing all of the amenities Grand Park offered.

The three stages within the festival grounds all followed through with that modest method, each revealing monolithic industrial aesthetics paired with dark lighting packages. This allowed for a more underground feel to the event, immersing attendees in the true gritty nature of electronica.

Speaking of which, the artists who helped produce the soundtrack of the weekend included a blend of local up-and-comers to highly regarded artists within the industry. Check out these select photos from some of the performances found at this year's Skyline Festival.
