Every June, attendees head to a forest in Rothbury, Michigan for a weekend of music and art colliding. This year, the Sherwood Forest is calling to us yet again. Held from June 25-28, EF 2026 is shaping up to be one of the strongest lineups in recent years, with massive EDM headliners and sure to be surprise moments.
At the top of this year’s lineup of heavy hitters, there is Griz (with not only one but two performances!), Illenium, Excision, Kaskade, and a Forest favorite, The String Cheese Incident.
Passion Pit, Madeon, Daily Bread, LSDream, Wooli, and Ganja White Night all add to a lineup that bounces between EDM genres – bass, house, and more. Something fans are really looking forward to: a DJ Diesel b2b T-Pain bass set.
There will surely be additional curated experiences, late night sets, art installations, thematic sets and more surprises to lean into the surreal and immersive experience. It’s all about the random adventures you stumble into at 2am, wandering the Sherwood Forest, catching a set at the Honeycomb stage, dance circles, scavenger hunts, and much more.
In an increasingly crowded festival landscape, Electric Forest continues to offer something much harder to manufacture: good vibes. If you’re headed to the forest this year, our advice is this: make friends with strangers, follow the lights, take the weird path, get lost a time or two, have a hammock nap, trade something at the trading post, and most importantly, dance, dance, dance. The Forest is waiting!
