Friday, May 16 – Crespo (Miami)
Friday night ignites with DJ Crespo, flying in from Miami to bring the heat. Crespo is a world-class open-format DJ known for genre-blending artistry and nonstop energy.

He rocks 150+ shows a year worldwide and has held residencies at iconic clubs like LIV Miami, Marquee Las Vegas, and Up&Down NYC. He’s even torn up festival stages at EDC and TomorrowWorld, sharing stages with Diplo and Steve Aoki. When Crespo hits SideBar, expect an electric Miami-meets-Cali vibe: one moment you’re singing along to an old-school rap classic, the next you’re losing it to a big-room EDM drop. He’ll serve feel-good vibes all night, sending San Diego’s fashion-forward crowd on a musical thrill ride under SideBar’s neon lights.
