A staple of the Bay Area music festival scene, Wobbleland draws a crowd each year of several thousand headbangers like flies to a pulsing neon light. However, unlike those sprawling outdoor EDM festivals of the summer months, Wobbleland crams all those ravers and lasers into a dark room that acts as a canvas for the festival’s unique lighting effects. The festival consists of two stages in one venue, each hosting six to seven bands each day, providing ample opportunities for raving to your favorite DJ with no reminder of the outside world.
The larger of the two stages is the main attraction: a large standing-room pit of EDM heads with a rounded balcony of fans watching from their seats above as a deep bass vibrates the room, giving Wobbleland the feel of a smaller concert with all the fun perks of a large festival. Every EDM festival likes to chest pound about its audiovisuals, but audiovisuals are what Wobbleland is known for. Each hall is decked out with smoke machines, lasers and over-the-top set pieces. One year, the traditional DJ booth was replaced with a colossal animatronic tiki head that took over the entire stage; the DJs, acting as the brains of the operation, performed from inside of it.
This indoor winter rave has occurred in mid-January most years since 2011 and brings in favorites in the industry like dubstep pioneer Cookie Monsta, Brooklyn-based DJ Luca Lush, and many more. Among the mix of artists, dubstep reigns supreme, and you can expect the lineup to lean in the genre’s favor among the other sub-genres of bass music.
