Zamna and Primer unveil phase 1 lineup for Athens festival at iconic Olympic venue

Zamna and Primer have revealed the first phase of artists for their massive 2026 Athens festival at the Olympic Athletic Center.

Zamna and Primer Music Festival have officially dropped the phase one lineup for their huge 2026 festival in Athens, Greece. The two-day event is set to take over the Olympic Athletic Center on September 4th and 5th, bringing together some of the biggest names in house, techno, and melodic dance music.

The first wave of artists includes Axwell, MRAK, Adam Ten, Armand Van Helden, Bedouin, OMIKI, and Stephan Bodzin live, with more names still to be announced. Even with just phase one revealed, the lineup is already shaping up to be one of the strongest electronic music bills in Europe this year.

For anyone unfamiliar, Zamna has become one of the most recognizable brands in dance music over the last few years. Originally launched in Tulum, the brand is known for its immersive jungle-inspired stages, massive visuals, and carefully curated melodic house and techno lineups that now travel around the world.

Primer, on the other hand, has quickly grown into Greece’s biggest electronic music festival. The Athens-based event has built a reputation for huge productions, stacked lineups, and blending modern dance culture with the city’s historic atmosphere and mythology-inspired visuals.

The collaboration between Zamna and Primer feels like a natural fit, especially with Athens continuing to emerge as a major destination for dance music events. Hosting the festival at the city’s iconic Olympic venue only adds to the scale, with thousands of fans expected to travel in from across Europe and beyond.

With more artists still waiting to be announced, anticipation around Zamna x Primer is only getting bigger. Between the setting, production, and lineup already revealed, the festival is easily shaping up to be one of the must-hit electronic events of summer 2026.

Hey everyone, I’m Neil! I first joined the dance community back in 2019 when my friend dragged me to Moonrise, my first-ever music festival, and I became hooked ever since. I like to dabble in most genres with my favorites being tech house and melodic techno. When it comes to studio output, Camelphat is part of my daily listening rotation and for a live performance, I’ll never miss a Solomun set. You can likely catch me on the dance floor somewhere in Brooklyn!
