Welcome one and all to an immersive '70s experience like nothing else on earth. Some call it a music festival. Others call it a costume party. Many call it a family and anyone who's ever been calls it the best day of the year. Truth be told, Stache Bash is all those things and more.
It's a community of like minded, funky spirits who gather, dripping in disco, to turn up and get down. Together, we unleash our funky auras and time-travel back to the era when love was free and soul reigned supreme. Bell-bottomed booties shake beneath glimmering disco balls. Mustaches glow in the golden sun. Disco-dosed dance moves break free and we boogie. We bust out. We Bash.

For 17 years The Mustache Bash has been funkin' up Southern California with a heroic disco party that gets bigger and better every year. Now, for the second time around, The Bash is running it back in The Bay! A long time in the making, we're excited to introduce the return of the San Francisco Mustache Bash – an immersive, authentic '70s shindig where queens dress mean, Joes rock mo's, and together, we time-travel back to that bygone era when funk reigned supreme, and boogie down and beam on to Planet Disco.
In 2023, The Bash brought so much heat to The Phoenix, we damn near evaporated the pool. This Fall, we're doubling down for another two day, '70s-style boutique funk festival at the city's sexiest vintage hotel with poolside sets.
It began with no venue, no stages, no artists or investors; just a group of best buds with a funky vision and a backyard. That vision became a house party where five dollars at the door bought you a bottomless cup, an iPod pumped throwbacks through a makeshift speaker, the living room lit up with disco dance moves, and a family of funky, '70s souls came to fruition. Mustaches were mandatory back then. Dudes and dames alike came clad in show-stopping '70s outfits. And by the time the cops arrived to shut us down, a legendary holiday was born.
16 years later, The Mustache Bash has grown into SoCal's definitive funk-fest, a special day each year when friends get together to set their dancin' spirits asail and fly their funk flags undeniably high.
Whether you're a first-timer or veteran, black, white, red or brown, he, she, it or they—whoever and whatever you are—step into the Bash, and you're joining a family. Every beating heart in the building is part of it, and the more different you are, the more you fit in. An eccentric family is the driving force behind the Bash, and every Basher is key to its success. Go ahead and bump rumps with your new best friends. You might be strange, but damn sho aren't strangers!
The Bash is all about breathing new life into decades-old genres with futuristic flare. Alumni range from legendary funkmasters like Lee Fields and Greyboy Allstars to modern day funk and disco mavens like Yung Bae, Yuksek and The Floozies, plus a dream team of homegrown talent. Whether you're grooving to remastered classic hits from The Mustache Bash Family Band, boogying down to remixed disco slappers from our crew of family DJs, or discovering new favorites from '70s-inspired touring acts, the Bash is your sonic sanctuary.
