Kaskade and Insomniac have officially announced the return of Sun Soaked Festival, bringing the beachside event back to Huntington State Beach on Saturday, September 12, 2026. Presale opens Friday, June 26 at 10:00AM PT, with the public on-sale following at 12:00PM PT — tickets are available at sunsoaked.insomniac.com.

The 2026 edition follows a sold-out run in 2025, continuing what has become one of Southern California’s more distinctive one-day dance music events. Set directly on the sands of Huntington Beach with the Pacific as a backdrop, Sun Soaked has built its reputation on pairing a relatively intimate atmosphere with a world-class lineup.

This year’s bill includes Kaskade, Cassian, Matroda, BUNT., D.O.D, Me N Ü, Lavern, Bobby Harvey, and Esse. Kaskade will perform two sets on the day — a solo headline performance and a back-to-back with BUNT., marking a rare live collaboration between the two artists. The b2b follows the release of their joint single ‘Comes Back Around,’ which Kaskade debuted at Coachella earlier this year as part of his ORIGIN // live concept.

The announcement comes during a busy stretch for Kaskade. In April, he closed the Sahara Stage at Coachella, unveiling ORIGIN // — a reimagined live concept tied to a forthcoming album he announced live on stage. Since then, he’s released ‘Meet Again,’ the official EDC Las Vegas 2026 anthem alongside Layton Giordani and Natalie Jane, and has been touring globally through EDC Las Vegas, Electric Forest, and Tomorrowland.

For Kaskade, Sun Soaked carries a personal significance that goes beyond a standard festival booking. The event, which he co-created with Insomniac and originally launched in 2017, grew from a boutique beach gathering into a destination event drawing fans from across the country.

“Sun Soaked has always been about bringing people together somewhere that feels different,” said Kaskade. “There’s something about standing on the beach with the ocean behind you, surrounded by people who love music, that changes the energy completely. Every year it evolves a little bit, but the feeling stays the same. That’s what keeps bringing me back.”

Now in its next chapter as an annual staple on the Southern California calendar, Sun Soaked 2026 is shaping up to be the most event-dense edition yet. Register for presale access at sunsoaked.insomniac.com.
