Hulaween has officially completed its 2026 lineup, unveiling a final wave of artist additions ahead of its return to Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park in Live Oak, Florida, from October 22–25. The latest announcement further strengthens an already expansive roster, reinforcing the festival’s reputation as one of North America’s premier destination events for fans of electronic, jam, indie, funk, and rock music.
Leading the final additions is Irish dance music sensation KETTAMA, whose high-octane blend of house, techno, and rave influences has made him one of electronic music’s fastest-rising stars. Also joining the bill is The Warren Haynes Incident, which will deliver a special Saturday night Shebang celebrating the music of The Grateful Dead and The Allman Brothers Band—a fitting tribute from Haynes, who was a longtime member of the legendary Southern rock group and previously hosted events at Spirit of the Suwannee for decades.
Additional artist announcements include a DJ set from Frost Children, bringing their genre-defying fusion of indie-pop and electronic music, alongside house music breakout Dean Turnley, whose viral hit “Actin’ Tough” has made him one of dance music’s standout new names of 2026.
Hulaween also continues its tradition of exclusive collaborations with a special edition of EOTO & Friends, featuring acclaimed guitarist Scott Metzger (Joe Russo’s Almost Dead, LaMP) and keyboardist Kyle Hollingsworth (The String Cheese Incident). The one-of-a-kind performance promises another Suwannee-exclusive collaboration that bridges multiple musical worlds.
The final additions complete a lineup already stacked with headliners including Pretty Lights, My Morning Jacket, Excision, Geese, Of The Trees, Daily Bread, Green Velvet, Ben Böhmer, STS9, Levity, Crankdat, Hamdi, Unknown Mortal Orchestra, ¥ØU$UK€ ¥UK1MAT$U, and three nights of performances from The String Cheese Incident, whose annual residency remains central to the Hulaween experience.
Curated Experiences Expand Beyond the Main Stages
Beyond its extensive lineup, Hulaween 2026 continues to deepen its immersive programming with a series of artist-curated takeovers. Fans can explore Green Velvet presents LaLaLand, Of The Trees’ Memory Palace, and the Def: Off Limits Stage, each offering distinctive musical programming and creative environments that extend the festival beyond traditional stage performances.
New Fan-First Improvements for 2026
Alongside the musical programming, organizers have introduced several upgrades aimed at improving the overall attendee experience.
In a move welcomed by longtime fans, 4-Day General Admission passes will start at $469, representing a price reduction of more than $75 compared to 2025. The decision reflects the festival’s continued commitment to accessibility while giving back to its dedicated “Hula Fam.”
One of the festival’s most anticipated enhancements is the return of the Spirit Lake 360º Experience, restoring the complete walking path surrounding Hulaween’s iconic immersive art installation after strong community feedback. Long regarded as the heart of the festival, Spirit Lake once again promises an expansive journey through interactive art, projection mapping, sculptures, and performance installations.
VIP attendees will also benefit from several new amenities, including:
- A dedicated entrance connecting Meadow Field camping directly to festival grounds.
- The return of the River Road VIP Lounge entrance.
- Expanded shuttle services designed to reduce transportation wait times.
- Enhanced VIP swag bags featuring practical festival essentials.
- Additional comfort and convenience upgrades throughout the weekend.
For festivalgoers seeking a more effortless camping experience, Hulaween is also introducing new glamping accommodations and preset RV packages, allowing attendees to arrive with lodging already prepared.
A Festival Built Around Community and Discovery
Now entering its 13th year, Hulaween has established itself as one of North America’s most immersive destination festivals. Set among the Spanish moss-covered forests and winding riverbanks of Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park, the festival combines world-class music programming with interactive art, camping, and an atmosphere centered on creativity and community.
Every Halloween weekend, attendees transform the grounds into a vibrant celebration of self-expression through elaborate costumes, themed campsites, late-night performances, and spontaneous collaborations. By day, guests explore forest trails, riverside camps, and large-scale art installations. By night, the park comes alive with immersive production, genre-spanning performances, and unforgettable moments around every corner.
At the center of the experience remains Spirit Lake, one of the country’s most celebrated festival art environments, where interactive installations, live performers, projection mapping, and surreal visual experiences blur the line between festival and immersive art exhibition.
With a lineup that continues to bridge electronic music, jam bands, indie rock, funk, hip-hop, and experimental sounds, Hulaween has become known for creating unexpected musical discoveries while fostering collaboration across genres and generations.
As Hulaween prepares to return this October, its 2026 edition builds on more than a decade of evolution, reaffirming its place as one of the most distinctive and community-driven music festivals in the United States.
