Eliana Iwasa Brings Brazil’s Sonic Pulse to San Diego with Global Tour Stop at Wicked West
Eliana Iwasa, one of Brazil’s most iconic DJs and cultural trailblazers, is returning to the United States for a leg of her 2025 world tour - and San Diego is on the map. On June 14, she’ll take the stage at Warung Tour, a prestigious Brazilian-led electronic event hosted at Wicked West.

This performance follows her upcoming feature on Beats in Space, the revered New York podcast helmed by Tim Sweeney, and marks a continuation of Iwasa’s decades-spanning influence on dance music across three continents.
With roots in São Paulo’s DIY club scene and a synopsis stacked with appearances at festivals like Lollapalooza Brazil, Rock in Rio, and Tomorrowland, Iwasa is no stranger to the spotlight. But it’s her commitment to curating unforgettable spaces and fostering a global dance music community that has solidified her reputation both as a selector and a scene-shaper.
Her 2025 tour began in May with a lush set at La Brisa in Bali and has since swept through Mexico, with highlights in Puerto Vallarta, Guadalajara, and Tulum. Each set has been met with enthusiasm for her signature blend of hypnotic, emotionally intelligent techno and house, delivered with a fluid connection to the dancefloor.
The upcoming Warung Tour date in San Diego is more than just another show, it’s part of a broader mission to connect Latin American electronic culture with global audiences. Eli will be joined by a stacked lineup including Eduardo Schwartz, Julean, Mario Lui, Mama, Pepofit, and Victor Souz, with doors opening at 3 PM. Tickets are available now on Eventbrite, starting at $50.
Beyond the decks, Iwasa is a multi-hyphenate force: co-founder of iconic venues like Club 88 and CAOS, a judge at Amsterdam Dance Event alongside legends like Dave Clarke and Todd Terry, and a featured artist at institutions like Hï Ibiza and Time Warp NY. Her impact spans sound, space, and spirit.
