Event Details

Liberté. Égalité. Après-ski.

Bastille Day is hitting Claude Lane and we’re throwing the block party to match. Live DJs, no cover. Come as you are — beret optional.

ON THE DECKS

Gabrielle (@gabattackk) — Straight outta Lyon, Gabrielle brings groovy, sexy European electronic with a darker, hypnotic edge. She’s here for the freedom and connection a good dancefloor creates.

Turbo (Soren) — Sacramento-born, Asia-forged. Hard house, eurodance, and ’90s rave energy that keeps everybody moving. No judgment, just good music — and legendary hair.

Driddle (Daniel) — The “Bouncing Irishman.” Fast, four-on-the-floor EDM and feel-good anthems from a guy who never stands still behind the decks.

Why July 14th Matters

On July 14, 1789, Parisians stormed the Bastille, igniting the French Revolution and the ideals of liberté, égalité, fraternité that still resonate today.

San Francisco’s ties to France run deep — French Gold Rush immigrants shaped the Clay and Bush Streets neighborhood, earning the city the nickname “Paris of the West.” In 1880, San Francisco hosted what’s considered the first Bastille Day celebration in the U.S., and the tradition has run strong ever since.

We’re proud to carry that spirit down Claude Lane. See you July 14th.
