GRiZ, ILLENIUM, Excision Lead Massive Electric Forest 2026 Lineup

Electric Forest will return to Rothbury, Michigan, June 25–28, 2026, with a powerful initial lineup of 100 artists, marking one of the festival’s most expansive billings to date. Long known for its immersive, community-driven atmosphere, Electric Forest continues to blend electronic music, jam, indie, and genre-defying performances into a uniquely transformative experience.

Headliners for 2026 include GRiZ — appearing twice with a standard set plus his fan-favorite Chasing The Golden Hour performance — alongside ILLENIUM, Chris Lake, Excision, KASKADE, and multi-night hosts The String Cheese Incident. Other top draws include Disco Lines, ISOxo, Levity, Sammy Virji, and a special bass-heavy collaboration: DJ Diesel B2B T-Pain, marking a first-of-its-kind performance for the festival.

The bill spans the breadth of electronic and crossover sounds, featuring Purple Disco Machine, Ganja White Night, LSDream, Madeon, ALLEYCVT, Channel Tres, Passion Pit, Bob Moses (Club Set), SBTRKT (DJ Set), SIDEPIECE, Whethan, and Wooli. Fans will also see drum & bass heavyweights Andy C and Ivy Lab, genre-blurring sets from Sullivan King and Wilkinson, and rising names including Ravenscoon, Mary Droppinz, Odd Mob, Oppidan, and Nitepunk.

Forest organizers leaned into their tradition of fan-driven speculation by seeding lineup clues across social platforms, riddles, and EF Radio, building anticipation through a multi-day scavenger hunt before revealing the full roster.

Loyalty presales open December 9 at 12 p.m. ET, with the general public on sale beginning December 12 at 12 p.m. ET. Festival passes, camping options — including the new GA Preferred Car Camping tier — and add-on experiences are available at ElectricForest.com.

The full 2026 lineup, listed A–Z, features artists across electronic, indie, jam, pop, hyperpop, hip-hop, and global sounds, including Jean Dawson, INIKO, Frost Children, Daniel Donato’s Cosmic Country, Shpongle (Simon Posford Live), Tourist, Underscores, Couch, Bipolar Sunshine, Dixon’s Violin, Night Tapes, and dozens more.

Electric Forest is set once again to bring its devoted Forest Family into a world where music, art, and nature converge — promising an unforgettable four-day experience in the Michigan woods.
