Level 8 DTLA is a contemporary nightlife destination located in the heart of downtown Los Angeles, United States, merging the excitement and allure of a vibrant club scene with distinctive elements of art, entertainment, and upscale hospitality. Situated atop the historic Moxy & AC Hotel tower—a dual-branded Marriot property—Level 8 opened its doors in 2023, quickly establishing itself as both a nightlife hotspot and a culinary haven in the revitalized downtown district. The venue was conceived as an experiential multi-venue complex by hospitality veterans Mark and Jonnie Houston (the Houston Brothers), known for celebrated LA nightlife staples such as Break Room 86 and No Vacancy.

Level 8 not only embraces club music and dance, but also houses nine different high-concept bars, restaurants, and lounges. The building's 30,000 square feet feature everything from a sultry rooftop poolside bar with panoramic city views to a Latin-inspired disco and even an immersive omakase experience, all interconnected via a single, kinetic setting. This hybrid model reflects the evolving tastes of Angelenos and international guests, who gravitate toward spaces that offer a fusion of world-class music, inventive cuisine, and architectural novelty.

Level 8 has rapidly garnered a reputation for innovation in the city's nightlife ecosystem, helping to elevate DTLA’s cultural profile and drawing a diverse, fashion-forward crowd. While the project is relatively new and has not undergone significant changes in location or structure since opening, its conglomerate design allows for frequent thematic updates and guest experiences. The venue’s openness to creative collaboration has made it a favorite among promoters, artists, and event curators.

Notable artists who have performed or held pop-up shows at Level 8 DTLA include globally recognized DJs like Diplo, Sofi Tukker, and Purple Disco Machine, as well as beloved local collectives such as the Brownies & Lemonade crew and DJ Honey Luv, among others. The club’s versatile atmosphere has attracted both international guests and local talents, contributing to its growing prestige as a must-visit LA nightlife landmark.
