A Rave Labubu offers a salty for the darkest time table

Inside the cave From Catch One Club on Friday last Friday, neon laser beams rotate the dance and bodies in a sacrificial coordination, as Ravers complains from every corner of Los Angeles to make a offer in the Labubu altar.

Everyone is here. Real and really curious believers, Chasers Trend, Purists Night Life, Wannabe, Crasters Party, and those who simply want to be seen.

This is a celebration of Labubu, a collection like Ewok, which appears to have become an intimacy phenomenon in the evening of Tiktok, influencing artificial intelligence and addiction to cheap drugs. About 250 people gathered at the age of 18 and older who have united in their new toy god. Outside, a snake through parking and soft tips from the scent of weed weeds.

There are three things I know about Labubu: either you have one, one you want, or you comment on one. So I’m here to feel it from its sectarian mania.

“This is my dear labobo, baby!” John, a 27 -year -old law student who is with a group of friends at the party, announces. “I just think they are really cute,” he says. From his backpack a limited version of Coca-Cola Labubu kills and delicately holds it as if this is a prize. “I know that part of why they are very popular is consumerism. But they are very beautiful. It’s a process. Everything gets.” (Wired participants refused to share their surname by citing privacy or work concerns.)

Initially imagined in 2015 has been fired on a global scale since the Chinese-Kasing Lung Chinese-Kasing Lung, Labubu, and high demand is being driven with a well-known approval. All of Rihanna, BTS, Kim Kardashian, and Naomi Osaka-who has shown five limited Crystal versions in this year’s US open-ended championships-has read Labubu’s praise. Today, Labubu is sold by Pop Mart Chinese toy maker as part of his “The Monsters” rights. According to the company, in the first six months of 2025, it earned more than $ 670 million, up 668 percent compared to the same period last year.

From one step inside the Catch One, an LED screen as the theater as the theater plays animations of the god of fur, and the DJ summoning its loyalty. He tells the microphone, “All the labobo raises your own.” The hands are thrown into the air. Bass branches of speakers. There is a contagious speed until the moment is not strict. DG shows “late night”, Lily Palmer and MiThadix’s technical earworm, and the crowd is erupted as one person. Labobus fluctuates from the neck, fists to the sky and rotates from the pockets of the vest. Energy is constant.

“This is a good fashion statement,” says Aydin 21. Look. “A manager for a clothing company says that having a labobo has become a taste index. Well you are cool.”
