Shambhala Music Festival drops stacked 2026 lineup

Shambhala Music Festival returns July 24–27, 2026 with a massive lineup featuring Excision, CloZee, Seven Lions, and more.

One of electronic music’s most beloved gatherings is officially gearing up for another summer back on the farm. Shambhala Music Festival has unveiled the first wave of its 2026 lineup to reunite the Shambhala family on Salmo River Ranch dancefloor July 24-27.

Revealing a stacked list of more than 150+ artists seems like a lot, but there are another 150+ acts still to come as each of the festival’s six iconic stages drops its own curated lineup in the coming weeks.

The lineup so far confirms bass legends Excision, Ganja White Night, and Liquid Stranger will appear alongside CloZee, Seven Lions, Boris Brejcha, Chromeo, Louis The Child, and Tycho. Tech-house lovers will also be pleased to see Cloonee, Matroda, and Solardo are making their way to British Columbia. Beyond the headliners, for those looking to dive deeper and discover new sounds, the lineup also highlights rising artists like MNTRA, Uncle Waffles, TCHILT, and Shiny Things.

“We set a deliberate standard when it comes to talent at Shambhala,” said CEO Neil MacLeod in a statement. “Our Stage Directors have curated with intention — balancing emerging momentum with established impact.”

Since Shambhala’s humble beginnings in 1998 on founder Jimmy Bundschuh’s family farm, Shambhala has grown into one of the most iconic independent festivals in electronic music and still preserves its ethos and community-first mission. The festival sets itself apart in many ways, including enforcing a strict no-alcohol policy and operating without any corporate sponsorship. Shambhala also gives back to the community with industry-leading harm reduction programs.

In addition to the first wave lineup release, Shambhala has also teased the next major reveal on Instagram, writing: “Starting Monday, March 9th, we’re announcing 150+ more artists for Shambhala 2026.” Fans were also encouraged to join the festival’s broadcast channel to receive the full stage lineup announcement schedule. 2026 passes are already sold out, so stay tuned for additional lineup announcements and updates by visiting Shambhala Music Festival’s official website.

Hi, I’m Lily! I’m an LA-based concert & festival diehard! My life was forever changed after my first festival, Coachella 2019, and then fully spiraled (in the best way) after my first EDC in 2023. I have attended over 140+ shows… I am the ultimate stage hopper and will always make it to the barricade. I love dubstep, house, trance, techno, bass, you name it.

If I’m not at a show, I’m working as a social media manager & photographer, or probably listening to music, learning how to DJ, planning my next festival, or watching a Gordon Ramsay cooking show with my cat.

I am so excited to be writing for Exron and sharing my love for music. If you’re reading this, thanks for being here and reading my stuff!
