Steve Aoki

Electro‑house pioneer Steve Aoki has built a reputation for high‑energy, bass‑driven tracks that blend festival‑ready drops with pop‑sized hooks, a sound that has defined the EDM scene since the late 2000s. Renowned for marathon DJ sets that feature surprise guest appearances, elaborate stage production, and a signature cake‑throwing tradition, Aoki’s live shows are celebrated for their relentless momentum and audience interaction, making him a staple of major dance festivals worldwide. Aoki’s 2026 North American run will open at Bill Graham Civic Auditorium in San Francisco on Sep 19, 2026, followed by dates in Miami, Las Vegas, Austin, New York, Los Angeles, Houston, Philadelphia and a series of festival appearances at Austin City Limits and EDC Orlando later in the fall.
