Brunch Electronik Festival Returns for a 3-Day Celebration
From 7–9 August, Brunch Electronik Festival returns to Parc del Fòrum for its fourth edition, bringing Barcelona’s ‘worst kept secret’ back to the city’s waterfront for its biggest and most ambitious festival yet. After welcoming more than 70,000 attendees across its last two editions — and securing its home at Parc del Fòrum through to 2028 — the festival returns with more than 100 artists across three days, reaffirming its place as Barcelona’s premier electronic music festival. Bringing together global headliners, local talent, and the next generation of electronic music alongside redesigned stages, upgraded production, and a continued commitment to sustainability, the 2026 edition is Brunch at its biggest while remaining unmistakably true to the city and community that built it.
A Diverse Musical Landscape
Across three days, the festival brings together more than 100 artists spanning every corner of contemporary electronic music. Global icons sit alongside emerging talent and Barcelona’s thriving local scene, with each stage offering its own distinct musical identity. Friday is led by Kaytranada, Jeff Mills, Miss Monique, and Paul Kalkbrenner, while Saturday brings Eric Prydz, Luciano, Floating Points (Live), and a rare BASHKKA b2b Sally C collaboration. The Blaze (DJ Set) closes the festival on Sunday as part of a programme that reflects the breadth and diversity of electronic music today.
From techno originators such as Jeff Mills, innovators including Rødhåd and Marrøn, to the uncompromising intensity of I Hate Models, SNTS, and 999999999, the weekend covers the full spectrum. More melodic sounds come courtesy of Eric Prydz, CamelPhat, Kevin de Vries, Massano, and Miss Monique, while Jamie Jones, Luciano, Seth Troxler, and Wade lead the house and tech-house offering alongside underground favourites Shanti Celeste, Chaos in the CBD, PARAMIDA, and Yu Su.
Exclusive Performances and Local Talent
Several performances will be exclusive to the event. Kaytranada will play his only peninsular show of 2026, while Cassius (Live) and Acid Arab (Live) will perform their only Spanish live dates of the year. Elsewhere, special b2b collaborations including Âme b2b Trikk, Amémé b2b LP Giobbi, and BASHKKA b2b Sally C underline the festival’s commitment to presenting rare performances. Barcelona’s local scene also plays an important role throughout the weekend, with Paula GM, Brieela, INEXXSTABLE, NHYMPH, Mercè, B1N0, Lil Dami, and Flashy Ice Cream showcasing the city’s current wave of creative talent.
Reimagined Stages and Enhanced Experience
Brunch Electronik Festival has always believed the experience extends well beyond the music. For 2026, several of the festival’s key stages have been completely reimagined. GrooviK receives an industrial-inspired redesign featuring a striking circular roof, while IconiK by Yamaha expands into one of the festival’s landmark spaces. The Open Stage also returns for its third edition, continuing its mission of platforming emerging talent, with 8 DJs per day selected from an open call.
Visitors can expect upgraded L-Acoustic sound across the site, redesigned public spaces, and improved crowd flow. Sustainability remains a priority, with four cold-water refill stations available throughout the venue, alongside new shaded rest areas and misting systems. In partnership with the Music For All Foundation, the festival continues to provide adapted spaces and specialist assistance for visitors with hearing, visual, and mobility disabilities.
