Substance Tickets
Substance Tickets
Substance is a curatorial, indoor music festival celebrating the darker corners of post-punk, darkwave, industrial, synth-pop, and experimental music. Staged across multiple rooms and levels with immersive art installations and thoughtful crowd flow, it delivers club energy with festival-scale production and crisp, body-moving sound. Recent editions have taken over The Belasco in downtown Los Angeles, with select nights in San Francisco at the Great American Music Hall. Expect stacked lineups that move from legacy innovators to underground breakouts, all under one roof.
