About Spin Nightclub

Spin Nightclub is one of San Diego's longest-running dedicated electronic-music clubs — 10,000 square feet across three levels at 2028 Hancock Street. The building dates to 1991; it has operated under the Spin name since 2007. The venue runs two dance floors with kinetic lighting and laser systems plus an open-air rooftop deck overlooking the city.

In August 2024 the club came under new ownership — long-time manager Brandon Colt and partner Brandon Garva — and the operation has been resetting since. The after-hours license that Spin was historically known for was lost in 2023 and restored in November 2024 at a 4am Saturday close, making Spin one of the few SD clubs with extended-hours licensing in 2026. The new owners have brought in a world-class audio engineer to rebuild the sound system, so any specific sound spec is a moving target.

Programming under the new direction leans more underground than the legacy big-room dubstep era — drum & bass, techno, hip-hop, and house. Recurring nights include Spin Thursdays (techno-leaning), SD Union (drum & bass), and Spindustry (industry monthly). Spin's run also includes hosted appearances over the years from David Guetta, Kaskade, Tiesto, Armin Van Buuren, Paul Oakenfold, MSTRKRFT, and Chris Cox.
