Preparing for Skyline Festival, Los Angeles

The 2026 addition of Skyline Festival, produced by Insomniac’s Factory 93, will take place from February 28th to March 1st at the Ace*Mission Studios in Los Angeles. This is the festival’s fifth anniversary, welcoming world-class electronic music talent and local innovators in the heart of the city.

In addition to the three stages we’ve seen last year (West Side, East Side, Arts District stage), the organisers are adding a new, Downtown stage. The new stage will be hosted in partnership with Resident Advisor, creating a warehouse stage environment. This new stage allows Skyline to expand its full experience to over ten hours of music per day, welcoming over sixty artists, marking this its most ambitious sonic offering yet.

The Resident Advisor stage will welcome techno’s pioneering and influential figures, Richie Hawtin, Ben UFO, genre-defying DJ and producer Avalon Emerson, the raw energy of MCR-T, global clubland favourite SPFDJ, and the experimental productions of Nick León and Verraco. Here, attendees will also find back-to-back sets including Danny Daze B2B Ryan Elliott and Jyoty B2B Zack Fox, Germany’s tINI, plus a range of emerging names.

On the East Side stage lineup this year are Spanish standout Dennis Cruz, Up The Stuss label head and tastemaker Chris Stussy, Brazilian fire starter Beltran, the LA-born-and-bred Hank, and dynamic back-to-backs bridging rave-ready sounds and groove-driven house from The Blessed Madonna B2B HAAi and Toman B2B Miguelle & Tons.

The West Side stage will be host to the hard techno duo 999999999, longstanding dance music globe trotter Joseph Capriati, Polish techno vanguardist VTSS, versatile selector Quest, among others. Added highlights include the emotionally charged stylings of DJ Seinfeld, genre fluid architect Ahmed Spins, Tunnel Worldwide founder OZA, and rising acts fumi, ChaseWest, Dee Diggs, and Wakyin.
