If you’re looking for things to do on New Year’s Eve in downtown Los Angeles, we got you! Spearheaded by DJ D-Nice, the Walt Disney Concert Hall will kick off 2025 with a party on New Year’s Eve that includes several guests set to take the stage. Primarily known for his integral role as a producer and DJ who cultivated hip-hip during the 80s, few people like D-Nice know how to set the tone right for the new year. The event begins at 10:30pm, but arrive at 9:30pm to enjoy the Hall’s Winter Wonderland New Year’s Eve lounge with a complimentary glass of champagne, photobooth, and music in the air.
Grimy Goods is giving away a pair of tickets, courtesy of our friends at the LA Phil! See all the details below to enter the giveaway.
D-Nice isn’t delivering a simple DJ set you can find at countless venues in and around LA. On top of actress/singer Tisha Campbell hosting the evening, D-Nice has put together a bunch of artists, rappers, and singers who can back up his credibility within hip-hop and R&B including Big Daddy Kane, Kenny Burns, and Estelle, to name a few. The sheer size of the guest list alone is enough to ensure a New Year’s well spent, but the array of music makes it a guaranteed way to go into 2025 on a high note.
There’s no way to undermine D-Nice’s placement in hip-hop history. Growing up in New York City, he was at the epicenter of hip-hop when it gradually became what we know it today, evolving at a rapid pace as more rappers gained traction in the mid-80s. Despite being a teenager at the time, D-Nice honed in on DJing and producing, eventually joining forces with KRS-One as Boogie Down Productions. Soon after, he dropped his debut album, Call Me D-Nice, while consistently collaborating with KRS-One and rap groups like Naughty by Nature.
