In 2016 West Coast Weekender established itself as more than just a set of day-to-night parties. As a full-fledged conference, attendees and artists came together at San Diego’s Four Points Sheraton Downtown for provocative discussions on beat making and community-specific topics before heading to the day’s festivities. From panels about social activism to limited-seating workshops on Ableton Live, there are educational opportunities for everyone.
