Club Darc: A New Dance Music Experience on the San Francisco Waterfront
Goldenvoice is set to launch a new dance music concept on the San Francisco waterfront with the introduction of Club Darc, a seasonal club experience. The event will take place on select weekends from Friday, Feb. 27, through Saturday, May 16, at Pier 48, near Oracle Park, home of the San Francisco Giants. These electronic events will be held at Pier 48’s Shed A warehouse, marking the first of its kind at this venue.
The lineup for Club Darc includes renowned house and techno artists such as Chris Stussy, Peggy Gou, Michael Bibi, Mau P, The Martinez Brothers, Armand Van Helden, and more. Each night will feature four artists on the bill, promising an exciting and diverse musical experience. Tickets for Club Darc shows will be available for purchase starting on Jan. 28 at 10 a.m. PT.
Goldenvoice, known for producing Coachella, has been actively involved in the San Francisco music scene since 2022 when they launched Portola on Pier 80. The success of this festival has led to the creation of new events, including standalone shows by popular artists like Skrillex, Four Tet, John Summit, and Swedish House Mafia at Pier 80’s warehouse space over New Year’s Eve.
Club Darc's founder, Danny Bell, expressed his excitement about bringing a new dance music experience to the Bay Area, highlighting Shed A at Pier 48 as the ideal venue for this venture. Working in collaboration with the SF Giants, the goal is to establish San Francisco as a global hub for electronic music. The lineup for the first season of Club Darc promises an unforgettable experience for music enthusiasts.
Sara Grauf, the senior vice president of the San Francisco Giants, shared her pride in seeing Pier 48’s Shed A transform into a vibrant music destination on the city's waterfront. Club Darc represents an exciting opportunity to activate Pier 48 with diverse and engaging programming, further enhancing the cultural landscape of San Francisco.
