JACKPOT Festival, the annual electronic music destination from independent event promoter RVLTN Events, is raising the stakes for its fifth anniversary with the announcement of its Phase Two lineup and the debut of THE VAULT, a new stage dedicated to hard techno and heavier underground sounds.
Returning December 26–27, 2026, at The Llama Lot in Downtown Las Vegas, the festival’s fifth edition expands its musical identity with a broader range of electronic sounds and a new setting designed to push the experience further.
Set within an abandoned hotel footprint, THE VAULT will transform an unexpected space into a dedicated home for hard techno, riddim, and heavier underground music. The stage will spotlight a rising wave of artists, including Gothparade, formerly known as Yultron, bringing his bass-driven sound into harder territory.
Joining the lineup is Junkie Kid, the Mexican producer behind the signature Neo-Hard House sound, with releases on Spinnin’ Records and collaborations with Carnage and Sandro Silva. SHOGUN will bring his high-intensity hard dance sound, with tracks “Can You Feel My Heart” and “HARDCORE SOUND” each surpassing two million streams.
The hard techno programming also welcomes CUTDWN, known for his high-intensity, 160-BPM sound and for founding The Hard Haven and Carnage Merchandise Records. On the riddim side, Izzy Vadim brings a gritty, groove-driven style supported by Excision and Subtronics, while Italian producer Automhate adds a heavy bass catalog featuring releases on Disciple, Halcyon, and Never Say Die. STELLAR rounds out the additions, further expanding the stage’s underground programming.
The new artists join an already stacked Phase One lineup featuring GRiZ, Crankdat, Levity, Ganja White Night, ALLEYCVT, Whethan, Richard Finger, TYNAN, and more. Together, the two phases highlight JACKPOT’s continued commitment to bringing a wide spectrum of electronic music to Las Vegas.
With the festival nearly sold out, only a limited number of General Admission and VIP passes remain. JACKPOT is preparing to close out 2026 with two days of music, mayhem, and high-energy performances in Downtown Las Vegas.
“Las Vegas has shown JACKPOT so much love over the last five years, and every year we raise the stakes together. We want this festival to become a year-end tradition this city is proud to call its own,” says Marcel Correa, CEO of RVLTN Events.
As JACKPOT celebrates five years, the introduction of THE VAULT signals an expanded vision for the festival, bringing harder sounds and underground energy into its year-end celebration.
