Trade — Powerhouse
About the event
TRADE is a monthly dance party at Powerhouse produced by Mark Weston and Mike Castro, bringing together underground house music, late-night energy, and a crowd that’s always ready to move. Built around connection, community, and a packed dance floor, TRADE has quickly become a staple for those looking for an elevated nightlife experience with a little edge.
At the heart of TRADE is resident DJ Will Vitagliano, whose signature sound blends deep melodic house, driving rhythms, and hypnotic grooves. His sets create the perfect journey—from warm, emotional builds to peak-time moments that keep the floor moving well into the night.
Each month, TRADE welcomes a rotating lineup of local favorites and guest talent, creating a unique experience while staying true to its roots: great music, great people, and an atmosphere where everyone can let go, connect, and lose themselves in the moment.
Whether you’re a regular or joining us for the first time, TRADE is where house music, community, and nightlife come together on one unforgettable dance floor.
