FNGRS CRSSD has announced the phase one lineup for PROPER NYE, its two-day, multi-stage event returning to San Diego’s Petco Park this December 31 and January 1.
PROPER has quickly become SoCal’s New Year’s Eve destination, bringing world-class talent from around the world to Petco Park in San Diego’s city center. The festival follows its sold out debut last year and the sold out Fall edition of FNGRS CRSSD’s iconic festival, CRSSD Festival, this September.
With a final lineup that will boast over 50 names, the phase one lineup kicks off with Black Book Records label boss Chris Lake and the pioneering TESTPILOT alter-ego of deadmau5 alongside Grammy-nominated electronic producer and singer ZHU, Higher Ground and Mad Decent superproducer Diplo, triple-platinum UK duo CamelPhat, and the masked German project Claptone. Attendees can also look forward to performances from chart topping North London duo Gorgon City, Aussie favorite Sonny Fodera, Late Checkout icon Chris Lorenzo, the hit making English export Duke Dumont, and beloved UK duo Eli & Fur.
PROPER will take place at Petco Park, one of Southern California’s most iconic venues, offering electronic music fans unobstructed views of downtown San Diego in the heart of the city. It’s the ideal location for a New Year’s Eve gathering soundtracked by the stars of house and techno. PROPER NYE is presented by FNGRS CRSSD, the team behind the flagship CRSSD Festival. The event will cap off successful Spring and Fall editions of CRSSD and the summer debut of the alternative and indie flavored Bleached Fest.
In conjunction with PROPER NYE San Diego, FNGRS CRSSD will also host a PROPER Las Vegas edition, taking place with the same lineup on the previous two days – December 30th + December 31st. PROPER Las Vegas will take place at AREA15, will feature four stages, and will also be 21+.
Alumni presale will begin on Thursday, 8/17 at 12PM PST and is available to all purchasers from CRSSD Spring or CRSSD Fall 2023, PROPER NYE 2022/23, and the FNGRS CRSSD Petco Park 2022/23 shows. SMS Community presale will begin on Friday, 8/18 at 12PM PST and general public on-sale for GA and VIP tickets will begin on Friday, 8/18 at 2PM PST.
