Copa del Rave is bringing its successful World Cup Residency to a close with its biggest event yet, taking over LA State Historic Park on July 19 for a massive World Cup Final celebration featuring an all-star lineup of DJs, live performances, and soccer-inspired festivities.
Headlining the finale is Pangea Sound, joined by DINA, Awsumo Ronald, special guests from BOLO’s Vibraza Records, Gasolina, and Reggaeton Rave, delivering a soundtrack that blends electronic music with the global energy of football’s biggest championship match.
Since launching during the tournament, the Copa del Rave Residency has transformed match days into cultural celebrations, bringing together internationally inspired music, community, and sport. Throughout the competition, the residency hosted performances from acclaimed artists including BOLO, 8OnTheBeat, Claude VonStroke, Foreigner, DJ Minx, Justin Jay, Todd Edwards, Juos, Mikey Lion, and DINA, alongside live mariachi, vallenato, and tamborazo performances that reflected the diversity of the participating nations.
After spending the summer at Academy LA and Exchange LA, the residency now moves outdoors for its largest event to date at LA State Historic Park. Fans in Southern California will also have another option to catch the championship action, with Copa del Rave hosting a separate World Cup Final viewing party at NOVA San Diego.
Coinciding with the championship weekend, Copa del Rave will also launch its newly established Copa del Rave Records with the release of CDR Anthem 26, a soccer-inspired club anthem from Southern California producer and longtime Copa del Rave favorite Papa Lu.
The organization continues its commitment to giving back by supporting Common Goal, the residency’s official charity partner. The nonprofit works to expand access to soccer for children around the world and leads the World Football Giving Day initiative. Proceeds and awareness generated throughout the residency have helped support the organization’s mission.
The festivities begin even before the championship match, with a community pop-up soccer tournament taking place on July 17 from 6:30 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. at Evolve Soccer in Frogtown, where teams will compete for the coveted Copa del Rave trophy.
Founded in 2019, Copa del Rave began as a charity soccer tournament for the music industry in Los Angeles and has since raised more than $75,000 for charitable causes. Over the years, the event has attracted participation from leading names across electronic music while welcoming special appearances from artists including Diplo, The Chainsmokers, Chris Lorenzo, Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs (TEED), Kah-Lo, Karaba, and many others.
With its combination of world-class electronic music, global football culture, and community-driven philanthropy, the World Cup Final celebration marks the culmination of one of Los Angeles’ most unique crossover events of the summer.
