UNUM Festival Announces Phase 1 Lineup for 2026 Following Best Global Festival 2025 Win
Follow UNUM Festival:
UNUM Festival has unveiled the first phase of its 2026 lineup. Fresh from being named Best Global Festival 2025 by the DJ Awards, UNUM returns to Shëngjin, Albania, for its seventh edition and will be expanding its scope while maintaining its signature blend of music, nature and freedom.
Set against the Adriatic coastline, the five-day, five-night event will once again transform Albania’s untouched paradise into a hub of global electronic culture.
The 2026 edition features an impressive mix of international heavyweights and underground innovators. Among the confirmed artists are Ricardo Villalobos, Ben Klock, East End Dubs, Craig Richards, Raresh, Richy Ahmed, DJ Tennis, Dyed Soundorom, Gerd Janson, Margaret Dygas, Francesco Del Garda, Maher Daniel, Priku and Tobi Neumann, as well as next-generation names including Anna Wall, Arapu, Bobby, Cameron Jack, Diosa, Fell Reis and Harry McCanna.
UNUM’s coastal setting is framed by pine forests, mountains and sea and has become a defining feature of the festival. Across three main stages, each offering a distinct atmosphere, music runs continuously for five days and nights. The Pine Stage is the 24-hour heartbeat of UNUM. The Beach Stage is for seamless sunrise-to-sunset sessions beside the sea and the Main Stage is the festival’s core, where peak-time energy takes over.
The 2026 edition introduces a new panoramic afterparty location overlooking the Adriatic. The limited-capacity event will take place in a modern venue perched above Shëngjin, offering a sunrise experience designed to blur the line between nature and sound.
Says the team, “UNUM Festival is going from strength and building off the incredible work of the team over the last six years, and with the unwavering support of the local and national government we plan on making 2026 even bigger. This line up puts not only UNUM Festival at the forefront of electronic music but also Albania — and it’s exciting to see a small independent festival help define the global electronic music scene.”
Following record early demand, loyalty and early bird tickets have sold out. Phase 1 tickets start at €95, with travel and accommodation packages available from under €300 via unumfestival.com.
