about

ELA is a Lisbon-based collective organizing late night parties and underground gatherings in different parts of Portugal since 2016.

The collective is inspired by the 90’s London and Berlin East movement, contributing to a new identity in Lisbon’s Electronic scene. Location and line-up are not announced publicly, and there are no social media pages.

From abandoned warehouses to the middle of the woods and completely new unknown spots around town – having an unique and mind-bending location is key.

Besides music in the shape of DJ Sets and Live Acts, expect other forms of art and collabs with local artists/crews. Eco-social causes in tune with our values will receive our support. We host alternative culture, safe environments, inclusivity and, above all, diversity. 

Since the very start, ELA has strived for inclusiveness, togetherness and safety in our parties. Everybody is welcome as long as they get the vibe and fully understand and respect our crowd and community.

Musicwise, ELA is deep inside the 90’s electronic music, joining House, UK Garage, Acid House, Breaks, Jungle, Electro and more — the only rule is to keep it groovy, energizing and underground.
Underground culture with an intimate atmosphere, deep vibes and a truthful approach to the scene.
