When you step into SideBar in the heart of the Gaslamp Quarter, it isn’t just another night out—it’s a curated, high-voltage experience wrapped in upscale, cutting-edge style. For one week only (Wednesday, November 12 through Saturday, November 15), SideBar invites you to four distinct nights of top-tier talent. We’re talking serious DJ names, serious vibe, and serious nightlife.
Wednesday, 11/12 — ALX CRTZ
Thursday, 11/13 — Eric DLux • Skratchy • Kaos • Julz (22-Year Anniversary)
Thursday onwards turns into a full-blown anniversary celebration. The marquee name, Eric DLux—Grammy-nominated songwriter and veteran radio DJ from Power 106 FM—brings major cred: early in his career he wrote/co-wrote tracks like “Shots” for LMFAO. Joining him: Skratchy, an open-format veteran who’s dropped sets at high-profile celebrity events and who keeps the crowd moving across multiple genres. Kaos brings local roots and national chops—San Diego native, long-time professional, nationwide touring and SiriusXM radio presence. Julz marks his 22-year anniversary in nightlife—and there’s no better place than SideBar to celebrate. Together, they deliver a layered Thursday: think VIP ambiance, milestone energy, and a mix of house, hip-hop, Top 40, and crowd-pleasers. It’s upscale but unrestrained.
Friday, 11/14 — J.Espinosa
Friday night shifts the focus to groove and finesse with J.Espinosa, whose aesthetic leans into R&B-flavored gems, ’90s & ’00s throwbacks, vinyl sets and deep-cut transitions. From San Francisco Bay Area beginnings, he honed his craft early—and today he commands sets with serious feel and authenticity. At SideBar expect a grown-up, stylish Friday where the beat feels tight, the crowd knows the cues, and the luxury vibe stays intact while the energy builds.
Saturday, 11/15 — DJ Spider
Saturday is the weekend’s apex: DJ Spider takes the booth and pushes it. With a career spanning continents, high-profile corporate and entertainment events (Netflix, HBO, Golden Globes, Super Bowl) and major wins on the production side (including Soca collaboration awards) he brings global impact to local nightlife. Versatility is his hallmark: Hip hop, dancehall, soca, house—whatever elevates the moment. At SideBar on Saturday you’re in for a full-throttle ride through sound, lights, and crowd momentum.
Each night at SideBar is steeped in that twin identity: premium luxury and raw nightlife edge. From reserved VIP tables and bottle service to a dance floor that demands movement, this week’s lineup captures the best of San Diego’s club scene.
Ready your crew, book your early entry if you want to skip lines, bring your style—and slide into something sharp but comfortable. Because this week, SideBar isn’t just playing DJs. They’re orchestrating nights. You won’t want to miss.
