Time Warp, the German techno institution born in Mannheim, makes its West Coast debut on November 27 and 28, 2026. Insomniac is co-producing the two-day event at Ace*Mission Studios in Los Angeles, where three warehouse stages will run 2 p.m. to 2 a.m. each day over Thanksgiving weekend.
Time Warp started in 1994 as a local, strictly indoor underground event in Mannheim, Germany. Over three decades it grew into a global brand known for immersive production, heavyweight sound systems and lineups that mix legends with rising names
Three warehouses, 24 hours
Time Warp LA will be the first event ever held in the Ace Warehouses, a previously unused section of Ace*Mission Studios. Insomniac's Skyline used other parts of the property earlier in 2026; these buildings are a blank canvas.
The layout is three distinct stages, each running from 2 p.m. to 2 a.m. on both days. That adds up to 24 hours of programming across the weekend, a nod to the long-form sets Time Warp is known for in Mannheim.

More than 30 house and techno acts between minimal, house, techno and harder sounds ranging from Richie Hawtin, Ben Klock, Loco Dice and The Martinez Brothers lead, with Rødhåd, Tiga, HAAi, SOSA, East End Dubs, DESIREE, Funk Tribu, Luuk Van Dijk, Chlär, Ahmed Spins, Cloudy, Novah and more.
