Framework has announced 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 the independent promoter 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: Disco Lines at Exposition Park and &ME at Cabrillo Beach. With names such as Chris Lake, Gorgon City, SG Lewis, Carlita, SOSA, Ben Sterling, Francis Mercier, and Shimza attached to the series, the summer lineup continues Framework's wider push into large-scale outdoor dance music events across Los Angeles.

Thirteen Shows Across Parks, Plazas, and Beaches

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.

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.

Outdoor Expansion Tied 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 announcement 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.

Re:frame Venue Bridges Club and Outdoor Identity

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 series closes on September 19 at Reframe Studios Outdoors, where Francis Mercier will close the series with special guest Shimza. Tickets and additional information are available through Framework's channels.
