Subtract on the Pier returns for its 11th—and final—season.

Sunday, May 31st, 2026 | Subtract on the Pier x WORK

Eleven years on this pier has taught us one thing: the bookings that matter most are the ones that don’t usually happen. DVS1 playing a house set, day into night, by the ocean is one of those. A unicorn moment, perfect for our final season.

DVS1 is one of the most respected figures in underground dance music. A Berghain regular, founder of HUSH, and a name that carries real weight in techno circles worldwide. But long before any of that, he was a sound guy running his own venue in Minneapolis, and that part has never left him. The way he plays, the rooms he chooses, and the no-phones policy he’s carried with him for years all come from the same place. The dance floor is the point, and everything else is in service of it.

Those who know DVS1 know he has a long history with and strong appreciation for proper house music, he even started his own Into The Deep event series as a homage and celebration for a genre he loves so much.

Subtract x WORK is a collaboration rooted in the same shared values. Sound, curation, and respect for the people on the floor. This one lives up to both names.

From the warehouse onto the pier for a rare house set: this is the kind of booking we’ve been building toward for eleven years. Trust us, you don’t want to miss this one, it will sell out.

Dance floor is a phone-free zone. Be Here Now..
