Skyline Festival 2026: Los Angeles Sets the Tone for the Season With a Powerful Initial Lineup

Los Angeles is gearing up to launch the festival season with one of its most influential electronic gatherings: Skyline Festival, Factory 93’s flagship celebration of house and techno on the West Coast. For its fifth edition, the festival is taking a major leap by relocating to Ace*Mission Studios, where it will take place from February 28 to March 1, 2026.

Alongside the venue reveal, organizers have dropped the first wave of the lineup, hinting at a weekend that will play a defining role in the region’s electronic landscape.

A Renewed Format With Four Stages and a Dynamic Curatorial Vision

Skyline’s move to a new location doesn’t change its core structure. The classic stages — East Side, West Side, and Arts District — are all returning with their signature sonic identities. Joining them for the first time is Downtown, a brand-new stage designed to broaden the scope of the 2026 edition.

East Side: A Hub for Leading Voices in House & Techno

This stage brings together artists who continually shape global club culture:

• Chris Stussy

• Marco Carola

• I Hate Models

• Eli Brown

• KI/KI

• Beltran

• Dennis Cruz

• The Blessed Madonna b2b HAAi

A well-balanced combination of hypnotic techno, energetic house, and forward-thinking rave patterns.

West Side: High-Voltage Techno and Modern Electronic Expression

The West Side lineup leans toward intense, driving, and experimental selections:

• 999999999

• Joseph Capriati

• VTSS

• Wakyin

• ChaseWest

• DJ Seinfeld

• Dee Diggs

Perfect for festivalgoers looking for bold rhythms, relentless momentum, and boundary-pushing sets.

A space designed for discovery, precision, and deep musical exploration.
