Today, FNGRS CRSSD and Framework have announced the phase one lineup for the debut edition of PROPER Las Vegas, taking place at the iconic AREA15 on December 30th + 31st. This announcement comes on the heels of the brand’s lineup reveal for PROPER NYE/NYD in San Diego, returning to Petco Park on December 31st and January 1st following a sold-out debut.
PROPER has quickly become Southern California’s ultimate New Year’s Eve destination, now set to take over Las Vegas’ most immersive experiential location, AREA15. The event will feature 4 stages, 50+ artists, and endless sensory wonders at the renowned venue, just minutes away from the bustling Las Vegas strip during the most electric time of the year.
PROPER Las Vegas features a powerful lineup billing featuring Black Book Records label boss Chris Lake, Grammy-nominated electronic producer and singer ZHU, chart-topping North London duo Gorgon City, modern UK house sensation Hot Since 82, triple-platinum UK duo CamelPhat, and German FCKNG SERIOUS label head Boris Brejcha.
Attendees can also look forward to performances from Aussie favorite Sonny Fodera, the introspective sounds of Cuban-American artist Maceo Plex, and beloved DJ and production duos Eli & Fur and Giolì & Assia.
Varying styles of modern house are scattered throughout the PROPER lineup, with acts like groove-driven duo Walker & Royce, global sensation Layla Benitez, and tech house standouts Biscits, Kyle Watson, and Eddy M on the bill. Additional highlights include melodic house producer Franky Wah, Chicago’s underground riser Azzecca, and emotive dance producers Sultan + Shepard, Jerro, and Le Youth.
PROPER’s underground and techno curation holds star-studded representation from the likes of progressive house breakout star Miss Monique, Berlin production duo Pan-Pot, and German Afterlife standouts Chris Avantgarde and Innellea. This is further supplemented by breakout rave sensation Rebūke, rising Ukrainian producer 8Kays, and emerging melodic techno act Massano.
AREA15 is known for its immersive offering of live events, experiential entertainment, art installations, unique retail, bars and eateries, and much more. It’s the ideal location to ring in New Year’s Eve in Las Vegas, soundtracked by the present and future stars of electronic music.
PROPER Las Vegas is presented by FNGRS CRSSD, the team behind the flagship CRSSD Fest, alongside one of the West Coast’s most respected underground electronic promoters Framework. Framework’s home base of Sound Nightclub in Hollywood has remained a stronghold for showcasing forward-thinking house and techno for almost a decade, while their large-scale events and curation of Coachella’s Yuma stage and Art of the Wild reign as some of the country’s most talked about experiences.
The recently announced PROPER NYE/NYD in San Diego has also announced its phase two lineup additions. Highlights include Boris Brejcha and FCKNG SERIOUS label favorites Ann Clue and Moritz Hobauer, plus Maceo Plex, Innellea, Giolì & Assia, Miss Monique, Jimi Jules, Tini Gessler, and Enzo Siragusa among others. This adds to a standout phase one including Chris Lake, TESTPILOT, ZHU, Diplo, CamelPhat, Claptone, Gorgon City, Sonny Fodera, Chris Lorenzo, Duke Dumont, Eli & Fur, and more. Tickets are on sale now here.
The event will cap off a strong year from the FNGRS CRSSD brand, who have already delivered a successful Spring edition of CRSSD with the Fall version taking place in September, the summer debut of the alternative and indie festival Bleached, and a slew of other standalone shows in San Diego.
