Los Angeles’ premier event collective Stranger Than; has announced its debut season at its newly converted venue ‘The SUPERMRKT, offering a new home for dance music in the city.
Repurposed from a former grocery store, the space will now be the epicenter for an array of eclectic shows ranging in capacity from 1200 to 3200+ attendees this fall.
Celebrated for hosting one-off electronic music events in unconventional and found locations across LA, Stranger Than’s innovative programming now finds a home base at The SUPERMRKT.
Once a bustling grocery store, the expansive space boasts stunning architectural features that combine uniquely with Stranger Than’s top-tier production. A high, arching wooden ceiling complete with strategically placed skylights create a sense of grandeur and openness while color-paneled windows along the walls contrast beautifully with the rustic wooden elements.
The space was successfully soft-launched this past May when the brand hosted 3,000 attendees at a 14-hour long Gordo show, which started at 6 a.m. and ended at 8 p.m.. Stranger Than; plans to continue hosting marathon shows with extended hours that are unique to LA’s party scene. These daytime events will leverage The SUPERMRKT’s stunning natural lighting and cater to a broader audience, ensuring that everyone from early risers to night owls can enjoy the unparalleled atmosphere.
The SUPERMRKT exemplifies Stranger Than;’s reputation for producing events in never-before-used locales. Led by founder Tal Ohana, Stranger Than; is responsible for debuting numerous urban venues throughout Los Angeles, such as Grand Park on the steps of City Hall, El Pueblo in front of Union Station, Ace Mission Studios at the foot of DTLA’s 4th street bridge, Petersen Automotive Museum, and Cabrillo Beach, which saw the event collective host one of LA’s only electronic parties to take place beachfront.
