From August 7–9, Brunch Electronik Festival returns to Parc del Fòrum for its fourth edition, bringing its signature blend of world-class electronic music, community, and culture back to Barcelona’s waterfront. Following the success of the past two editions, which welcomed more than 70,000 attendees, the festival is set to deliver its most ambitious event yet, featuring over 100 artists across three days while continuing its residency at Parc del Fòrum through 2028.

Remaining true to the city that helped shape its identity, the 2026 edition pairs globally renowned headliners with rising talent and local artists, all supported by redesigned stages, enhanced production, expanded attendee amenities, and an ongoing commitment to sustainability. The result is the largest Brunch Electronik Festival to date while preserving the community-driven atmosphere that has defined the brand since its inception.

The festival’s lineup showcases the full spectrum of contemporary electronic music across multiple stages. Friday is headlined by Kaytranada, Jeff Mills, Miss Monique, and Paul Kalkbrenner, while Saturday welcomes Eric Prydz, Luciano, Floating Points (Live), and a rare back-to-back set from BASHKKA and Sally C. The festival concludes on Sunday with a closing DJ set from The Blaze, capping off a weekend that celebrates electronic music without boundaries.

Techno takes center stage with pioneers and innovators including Jeff Mills, Rødhåd, Marrøn, I Hate Models, SNTS, and 999999999, while melodic sounds come from artists such as Eric Prydz, CamelPhat, Kevin de Vries, Massano, and Miss Monique. House and tech-house fans can expect standout performances from Jamie Jones, Luciano, Seth Troxler, and Wade, alongside underground favorites Shanti Celeste, Chaos in the CBD, PARAMIDA, and Yu Su.

Several performances will be exclusive to Brunch Electronik Festival. Kaytranada will deliver his only Iberian Peninsula performance of 2026, while Cassius (Live) and Acid Arab (Live) are set to make their only live appearances in Spain this year. Exclusive collaborations including Âme b2b Trikk, Amémé b2b LP Giobbi, and BASHKKA b2b Sally C further reinforce the festival’s reputation for curating one-of-a-kind performances.

The festival also continues to spotlight Barcelona’s thriving electronic music community. Artists including Paula GM, Brieela, INEXXSTABLE, NHYMPH, Mercè, B1N0, Lil Dami, and Flashy Ice Cream represent the city’s next generation of creative talent, highlighting the local scene alongside international stars.

Beyond the lineup, Brunch Electronik Festival is introducing significant upgrades across the festival grounds. GrooviK has been completely reimagined with an industrial-inspired design featuring a dramatic circular roof and two-tier structure that brings audiences closer to performers. IconiK by Yamaha expands into one of the festival’s largest spaces with a bold new architectural concept and immersive visual production.

The Open Stage also returns for its third edition after a complete redesign, continuing its mission of discovering emerging artists. Eight DJs will be selected each day through an open call accepting submissions until July 16, offering aspiring performers the opportunity to play on one of the festival’s official stages.

Returning favorites HarmoniK, EuphoriK by Estrella Damm, and RhythmiK will feature refreshed programming, including the ongoing partnership with Resident Advisor, which continues to champion both established artists and rising talent across the electronic music spectrum.

Listening closely to its community remains a defining part of the Brunch Electronik experience, and the 2026 edition introduces numerous attendee-focused improvements. Festivalgoers can expect upgraded L-Acoustics sound systems throughout the venue, redesigned public areas, improved crowd flow, expanded food offerings, and additional comfort features designed to enhance the overall experience.

Sustainability also remains a core focus. Four complimentary cold-water refill stations return after distributing more than 90,000 liters in 2025, while new shaded rest areas, misting stations, covered gathering spaces, and complimentary fresh fruit help visitors stay comfortable throughout the day.

Transportation has also been optimized with free shuttle buses connecting Parc del Fòrum and Poble Espanyol on Friday and Saturday, providing easy access to the official afterparties while helping reduce transport emissions. The festival’s closing afterparty on Sunday will take place at NACAR.

Accessibility continues to be a major priority through Brunch Electronik Festival’s partnership with the Music For All Foundation, providing adapted viewing areas, specialized assistance, and dedicated resources for guests with hearing, visual, and mobility disabilities.

What began in 2012 as a series of open-air Sunday gatherings has evolved into one of Europe’s most influential electronic music brands. Today, Brunch Electronik hosts events throughout Barcelona and across the globe, but its annual festival remains the centerpiece of the brand—a three-day celebration of cutting-edge electronic music, community, creativity, and the vibrant culture that continues to define both Brunch Electronik and Barcelona.
