Countdown NYE’s 2025 Lineup Lands in Downtown Los Angeles
LOS ANGELES, CA – Today, Insomniac has revealed the lineup for its intergalactic celebration, Countdown NYE. Returning for its 11th edition, Countdown makes first contact with a brand new home in Downtown Los Angeles for its most ambitious edition yet, The Los Angeles Convention Center will transform into a sprawling cosmic playground featuring four stages, the return of the renowned Red Light District, and a star-studded lineup leading an all-night odyssey from 7PM until 5AM.
Countdown’s 2025 lineup is spearheaded by meteoric house music superstar John Summit, the transcendent melodies of Grammy-nominated act Above & Beyond, and the legendary progressive soundscapes of the inimitable Pryda alias of Eric Prydz. Madeon (DJ Set) also brings his cinematic sounds to the decks, while SLANDER delivers their emotionally charged blend of bass and melody. Drum & bass powerhouse Sub Focus promises high-velocity energy, complemented by the explosive sonics of Crankdat, and genre-fusing expertise of Wuki.
Additional standouts include LA club disruptor AK SPORTS, viral tech house duo Ship Wrek, and high BPM selector MPH. Hard hitting sounds will prevail with relentless performances from underground techno and hard dance heavyweights Kobosil, Berlin R-Label boss Cera Khin, Tunisian selector Clara Cuvé, German force Kevin de Vries, and fan favorite techno titan Shlømo. This comes alongside quick risers like southstar, Starjunk 95, Gravagerz, Close Friends Only, Marie Nyx, AR/CO and OdyMel.
This year, Countdown moves to the heart of Los Angeles, making The Los Angeles Convention Center its immersive playground. Insomniac invites its fans to wander amongst towering art installations and mysterious extraterrestrial civilizations, raising a glass of bubbly champagne as they welcome the new cosmic cycle. This year, in addition to the four immersive stages, the provocative Red Light District returns, bringing its risque environment back to the heart of the celebration.
