The Momentary has revealed the day-by-day lineup for Momentous 2026, returning November 6–7 for its fourth annual celebration of electronic music, art, and culture. Bringing internationally acclaimed artists together with emerging talent from Arkansas and beyond, the two-day festival is expanding its sonic palette this year with a broader mix of electronic artists and bands. Single-day tickets are now on sale.
The festival begins Friday, November 6, with The Momentary itself becoming the setting for an immersive night of music. Performances will unfold inside the state-of-the-art RØDE House, while the museum’s galleries are transformed into unconventional dance floors, blurring the boundaries between contemporary art and nightlife.
Friday’s lineup is led by The Faint, Hiroko Yamamura, Cut Copy with a DJ set, J.Worra, and VNSSA. The bill also spotlights local talent including St. Bends, Starflyer, Messy Sparkles, Anoc, and KSoul, giving the opening night a distinctly regional character alongside its international programming.
On Saturday, November 7, Momentous moves outdoors to The Momentary’s iconic Green, expanding the festival footprint with an open-air stage. Grammy-nominated electronic duo SOFI TUKKER will headline the evening, joined by Channel Tres with a DJ set, Sextile, X-Coast, Annie-Claude Deschênes, Carlitos, and Trustory.
The night continues after the main performances with an after-party featuring Lucino and ANTIMATTER. Premium ticketholders will also receive access to an exclusive after-party with Channel Tres, extending the Saturday experience beyond the main stage.
This year’s programming was curated in partnership with Arkansas-based promoters On the Map and Solsets, helping further connect Momentous to the state’s growing electronic music community while bringing a broader range of international sounds to Bentonville.
Now quickly becoming one of Arkansas’s most distinctive music festivals, Momentous has built its identity around the intersection of bass, house, techno, art, and local culture. Its immersive approach transforms Bentonville into a weekend destination for underground music, while the 2026 edition pushes further into live instrumentation and electronic crossover.
The inclusion of bands incorporating electronic elements marks a notable expansion for the festival, creating what The Momentary describes as its most dynamic and diverse lineup to date. The shift reflects how increasingly fluid the boundaries have become between electronic music, alternative sounds, live performance, and club culture.
Momentous also forms part of The Momentary’s broader investment in electronic music programming. Its 2026 outdoor music series includes performances from Chris Lake and Zedd, continuing a legacy that has previously brought major EDM names including deadmau5 and Kaskade to the venue.
For those attending individual days, Friday single-day tickets are priced at $60 for the public and $48 for Momentary members, while Saturday tickets are $95 for the public and $76 for members.
Two-day general admission passes are $150 for the public, $132 for Momentary members, and $100 for students. Premium two-day passes are available for $250 and include general admission amenities plus access to the Tower Bar VIP Lounge on Friday and Saturday, front-row pit access on Saturday, the exclusive Channel Tres premium after-party, and priority festival entry lines.
With its fourth edition expanding beyond traditional electronic festival boundaries, Momentous 2026 is positioning itself as an increasingly important destination for electronic music and multidisciplinary culture in the region. From museum galleries and intimate indoor spaces to the open-air Green, the festival offers two distinctly different environments while maintaining the same focus: bringing adventurous music and art into the heart of Bentonville.
