Portola Festival 2026 Lineup: Robyn and Swedish House Mafia

Goldenvoice unveils the programming for Pier 80

The promoter Goldenvoice has made public the official lineup for the 2026 edition of Portola Festival. The event will take place on September 26 and 27 at its usual location at Pier 80, in San Francisco. This year's programming is characterized by the inclusion of high-profile figures within electronic music and alternative pop, structuring its two days around exclusive performances and highly anticipated returns to the North American circuit.

Headliners: DOG BLOOD, Swedish House Mafia, and Robyn

Saturday's lineup will be headlined by the Swedish artist Robyn and by DOG BLOOD, the joint project formed by Skrillex and Boys Noize, which is resuming its joint activity on stage. For its part, Sunday's closing will be in charge of the Swedish trio Swedish House Mafia. This selection of headliners underscores a strategy aimed at combining stadium acts with niche collaborative projects.

The rest of the lineup presents an extensive list of artists covering multiple subgenres of electronic music. Among the confirmed names, the following stand out:

• Soulwax and Fatboy Slim bringing experience to the opening day.
• DJ Shadow, who will present a special set celebrating the 30th anniversary of his historic album 'Endtroducing.....'.
• Four Tet, Tiësto, and Overmono reinforcing Sunday's programming.
• The Despacio space, designed by James Murphy and 2ManyDJs, which will operate throughout the weekend with its characteristic McIntosh sound system.

Positioning in the fall season

With its fifth edition, Portola Festival consolidates itself as a key meeting point on the west coast of the United States, competing directly with other major events in the last quarter of the year. The general sale of passes, both in General Admission format and in the different VIP packages, will officially activate next Tuesday, June 2, through Goldenvoice's institutional sales channels.
