Our venue started as a music recording studio. We still have several studios that operate Monday through Friday. The event business was born out of people coming into the recording studios and asking if they could throw a party in our space and one thing led to another. We love hosting all different kinds of events from weddings, to parties, fundraisers, film shoots, and even the occasional small concert.

We finally had our wedding at Playa Studios in Aug 2021, postponed from Aug 2020 by the pandemic. It's a fantastic space with high ceilings and an industrial modern feel, plus a touch of whimsy via the art work. The main event space is basically a black box and you can create any theme/layout you'd like, but it's also nice enough to use as-is if you want to keep things simple (we kept things simple). This is an indoor only space, but we were ok with that. They do have some outdoor space at the entry, but it's minimal. We loved that it wasn't a traditional wedding-type venue (think hotel ballroom), and that they host a variety of other events as well. We also appreciated the flexibility to bring in our own caterer. The venue has an extensive kitchen space included in the rental. Highly recommend you see the space for yourselves. The photos don't do it justice. It was the last on our list before we started looking, yet nothing could compare once we had our visit.

We couldn’t have dreamed of a better place to celebrate our wedding than SmogShoppe! This venue is pure magic—it's gorgeous, intimate, and SO unique. The industrial chic vibe mixed with all the lush greenery made for the most beautiful backdrop to our special day. Dana and the whole team were absolutely amazing—friendly, responsive, and SUPER detail-oriented. They took care of all the complicated details and helped us design a seamless ceremony and reception that was tailored to our specific desires. We can’t recommend SmogShoppe enough!
