2025/09/20 Portola, San Francisco DJ Set

But the further I think about it, Goldenvoice/Portola probably have a contract that restricts an after show unless it's promoted by them.

Oh they absolutely do, but they always host a series of pre/post parties leading up to and during Portola weekend, including some acts on the Portola lineup, so it's not out of the question.

They call it "Portola Week". 

Some are literal afterparties on the nights of the festival, others are in the days leading up to Portola weekend, occasionally one or two after. Some feature acts on the lineup, others are acts that would fit the bill but not playing the festival.

A handful of shows will be announced independently. Then there's an announcement of the full roster, including some that were already announced, but mostly first time announcements.

Last year that announcement happened Aug 19th.

tl/dr: watch out for Goldenvoice show announcements
