Electronic dance music fans across the Bay Area received unexpected news this week as Swedish House Mafia announced their exclusive New Year’s Eve 2025 warehouse rave at San Francisco’s Pier 80.
Though contrary to circulating rumors, Skrillex and Four Tet will not be joining the legendary trio for the celebration.
Despite widespread speculation, Skrillex and Four Tet have no plans to appear alongside Swedish House Mafia at the NYE warehouse event.
The Swedish supergroup, comprised of Axwell, Steve Angello, and Sebastian Ingrosso, will transform the massive 200,000-square-foot industrial space into an electronic music haven as fans welcome 2026.
The Pier 80 Warehouse, located at 401 Cesar Chavez Street along San Francisco Bay, has established itself as a premier venue for large-scale electronic music events in recent years. The waterfront location provides a striking backdrop for the New Year’s celebration.
The space previously hosted the Portola Music Festival and performances by electronic heavyweights including The Chemical Brothers, Peggy Gou, and Fred Again, making it an ideal setting for Swedish House Mafia’s signature production style and visual spectacle.
Tickets for the 21+ event will become available through a two-phase release, with pre-sale registration opening on November 5, 2025, at 10 a.m. PT, followed by general sales beginning November 7 at the same time.
Due to high anticipated demand, fans are strongly encouraged to pre-register for tickets to increase their chances of securing admission to this exclusive event.
Industry analysts expect rapid sellout given the group’s devoted following and their status as the first electronic act to sell out Madison Square Garden.
The trio, which formed in 2008 and helped pioneer modern electronic dance music, will likely perform their catalog of hits including “Don’t You Worry Child” and “One,” alongside selections from their 2022 album “Paradise Again,” which featured collaborations with artists ranging from The Weeknd to A$AP Rocky.
While Skrillex and Four Tet have individually performed in San Francisco on numerous occasions, reports of their participation in this specific New Year’s Eve event appear unfounded based on current information.
Both artists maintain separate touring schedules with no confirmed appearances alongside Swedish House Mafia at Pier 80.
For fans unable to attend in person, the event is expected to be streamed across multiple music platforms where electronic artists typically share exclusive performances.
The group has launched a comprehensive social media campaign featuring eye-catching visualizers and exclusive content to build anticipation for the New Year’s Eve spectacle.
The celebration promises to deliver the group’s renowned audiovisual experience against the backdrop of San Francisco Bay, offering fans an immersive way to ring in 2026 within the industrial aesthetic of one of the city’s most distinctive music venues.
