Framework Announces 2026 Summer Series Across Los Angeles with 13 outdoor shows at Exposition Park, Gin Ling Way, California Plaza and more

Framework, one of the world’s leading independent producers of underground music experiences, today announces its 2026 Summer Series, a thirteen-show run of outdoor events across Los Angeles featuring a mix of globally recognized talent and emerging artists. The series brings Framework back into open-air settings across Los Angeles County, with shows planned at culturally significant locations including Gin Ling Way, Exposition Park, California Plaza, and Reframe Studios Outdoors. The run has already started with two sold-out events, including Disco Lines at Exposition Park and &ME at Cabrillo Beach, giving the announcement early traction before the rest of the season continues through September. With names such as Chris Lake, Gorgon City, SG Lewis, Carlita, SOSA, Ben Sterling, Francis Mercier, and Shimza attached to the series, Framework’s 2026 Summer Series continues the company’s wider push into large-scale outdoor dance music events across Los Angeles.

Framework’s Summer Series Expands Across Outdoor LA Venues

The 2026 Summer Series continues on May 30 with Gorgon City at Reframe Studios Outdoors, Framework’s open-air extension of its Atwater Village venue. From there, Framework brings the run into several parts of Los Angeles, including Gin Ling Way in Chinatown, LA State Historic Park, Exposition Lawn, and California Plaza. The venue choices are central to the announcement because the series is not limited to one stage or one neighborhood. It places underground dance music across different outdoor settings in Los Angeles, from historic public spaces to downtown plazas and larger open-air sites.

Deep House Bible takes over Gin Ling Way on June 6 with Ahmed Spins, Darco, DDD, and Erez, followed by Chris Lake’s sold-out two-day run at LA State Historic Park on June 19 and 20 with AYYBO, Ragie Ban, Hot Since 82, and Club De Combat. The later dates continue with SG Lewis and Carlita at Gin Ling Way, SOSA, Max Dean B2B Luke Dean, and Rossi at Exposition Lawn, then Planet X with Ben Sterling at California Plaza. The series closes on September 19 with Francis Mercier and Shimza at Reframe Studios Outdoors, bringing the schedule back to Framework’s own open-air setting after a summer spread across Los Angeles.

Framework Links The Summer Series To LA’s Dance Music Growth

For Framework founder Kobi Danan, the summer run is closely tied to the role Los Angeles plays in global dance music. “Los Angeles deserves live experiences that feel exciting and unique to the city,” he said. “For us, this summer is about bringing people together in great locations, sharing great music, and continuing to show why Los Angeles plays such an important role in global dance music today.” The quote fits the structure of the series, which uses recognizable Los Angeles locations while keeping the focus on house, underground dance music, and artists with strong followings across international club circuits.

The announcement also follows a busy period for Framework outside its regular nightlife events. During Coachella season, Framework In The Desert returned to Thermal, California for its fifth anniversary, selling out a three-night run with more than 10,000 attendees. Framework has also expanded its outdoor work in Los Angeles through major Hollywood Boulevard takeovers for FISHER and Chris Lake, Mochakk, and Adam Port of Keinemusik. That recent history gives the 2026 Summer Series more weight because it continues the same direction across parks, beaches, plazas, and open-air venues in Los Angeles County.

Re:frame Adds Another Layer To Framework’s Outdoor Growth

Framework’s outdoor expansion also connects back to re:frame, its Atwater Village venue concept that has become one of the company’s most in-demand Los Angeles nightlife spaces. The response to re:frame has helped push Framework further into open-air events, with Reframe Studios Outdoors now acting as a bridge between the company’s venue identity and its larger citywide productions. That connection is visible in the summer schedule, with Gorgon City opening the next phase of the series at Reframe Studios Outdoors and Francis Mercier and Shimza closing the run there in September.

The wider direction follows how Framework has positioned itself across Los Angeles over the past few years, using beaches, parks, streets, plazas, and studio-adjacent outdoor spaces for large-scale dance music events. Instead of separating its club identity from its outdoor shows, Framework is using re:frame and Reframe Studios Outdoors as part of the same growth path, where venue design, production, and location choice all matter to the experience. For the 2026 Summer Series, that approach gives the schedule more structure than a standard run of outdoor shows, with Framework placing underground music in settings tied closely to Los Angeles while still keeping the focus on the artists and the crowd in front of them.

Framework Summer 2026 Series Tickets And Closing Dates

Framework’s 2026 Summer Series continues through September, with upcoming shows still set for Reframe Studios Outdoors, Gin Ling Way, LA State Historic Park, Exposition Lawn, and California Plaza. After opening with sold-out events from Disco Lines at Exposition Park and &ME at Cabrillo Beach, the run continues with Gorgon City, Deep House Bible, Chris Lake, SG Lewis, SOSA, Max Dean B2B Luke Dean, Carlita, Rossi, Planet X with Ben Sterling, Francis Mercier, and Shimza across the rest of the summer. The final show is set for September 19 at Reframe Studios Outdoors, where Francis Mercier will close the series with special guest Shimza.

Tickets and RSVP information for Framework’s 2026 Summer Series are available through Framework’s official channels. With multiple dates already sold out, including SG Lewis at Gin Ling Way and the two-day Chris Lake run at LA State Historic Park, the remaining shows continue a summer schedule that has already pulled strong demand across Los Angeles.
