Alesso Brings ‘The One’ Tour To Los Angeles With A Career-Spanning Performance [Event Review]
Alesso blended progressive house classics, modern festival productions, and fan-favorite anthems throughout his sold-out Los Angeles performance.
As part of his ongoing ‘The One’ tour, dj/producer Alesso returned to Los Angeles on June 13 for a sold-out performance at The Rio Vista Lot at the Historic Sears Building. Following successful stops across North America, the tour has become a celebration of the Swedish artist’s evolution, blending the progressive house records that first made him a global star with the modern sounds that continue to define his performances today.
The evening began with support from Soraya, Sentinel, and SCRIPT, who steadily built momentum throughout the night. SCRIPT delivered a particularly memorable opening set, balancing uplifting melodies and energetic drops that perfectly set the tone for the headlining performance. As fans filled the venue and the Los Angeles sky transitioned from daylight to dusk, anticipation continued to build for Alesso’s arrival.
Located adjacent to the Historic Sears Building, The Rio Vista Lot provided a fitting backdrop for one of dance music’s most recognizable names. The industrial setting offered a unique contrast to the polished production on display, with towering visuals, lasers, pyrotechnics, and fireworks transforming the open-air venue into a festival-like experience. From the moment Alesso stepped on stage, the crowd responded with the energy expected from a sold-out Southern California performance.
Over the course of two hours, Alesso expertly balanced nostalgia with forward-thinking productions. Early in the set, classics such as ‘Under Control’ with Calvin Harris and Hurts reminded fans why his music became synonymous with the peak of the progressive house era. The track’s soaring melodies and euphoric vocals instantly transported the crowd back to the festival moments that helped define a generation of dance music fans.
One of the night’s most emotional moments came during ‘If I Lose Myself,’ his iconic collaboration with OneRepublic. As thousands of fans sang along to every word, the record served as a reminder of Alesso’s ability to create music that transcends the dance floor and remains deeply connected to listeners years after its release. Alongside these beloved anthems, Alesso showcased newer material that highlighted the continued evolution of his sound. ‘Destiny,’ his collaboration with SACHA, generated one of the loudest reactions of the evening, while his remix of Anyma, Argy, and Son Of Son‘s ‘Voices In My Head’ brought a darker, melodic edge to the set. The remix demonstrated how Alesso has successfully incorporated contemporary influences into his performances while maintaining the uplifting energy that has become his signature.
Fans also got a taste of his latest work with ‘In Your Eyes’ alongside OneRepublic, a record that seamlessly fit among both his classics and newer productions. What made the performance particularly effective was the way Alesso structured the journey. Rather than separating old and new material, he wove them together naturally, creating a set that felt both nostalgic and current. Longtime fans were rewarded with some of the records that first introduced them to his music, while newer listeners experienced the direction his sound continues to take in 2026.
To close the night, Alesso delivered a mashup of ‘Never Going Home Tonight’ and ‘Heroes (We Could Be),’ bringing the crowd together for one final singalong. As fireworks illuminated the Los Angeles sky and the final notes rang out across the venue, the moment encapsulated everything that has made Alesso one of dance music’s most enduring headliners. More than a decade after breaking onto the global stage, Alesso continues to prove why he remains a fixture atop festival lineups around the world. His tour stop at The Rio Vista Lot was not simply a showcase of hits, but a reminder of his ability to evolve while staying true to the melodic sound that first captured audiences worldwide.
