Legendary electronic trio Swedish House Mafia, the Grammy-nominated group widely credited with helping bring stadium-scale dance music into the global mainstream, make Portola one of their only two currently announced US appearances in 2026.
Portola’s 2026 lineup also traces the many ways underground sounds have moved into wider cultural focus across generations. This year, that spirit comes into focus through an appearance from Four Tet, one of electronic music’s most revered architects. Another one of the scene’s pioneering figures, Tiësto, will put his larger than life anthemic festival productions on full display in can’t be missed set in the Warehouse. Tove Lo completes the Swedish holy trinity of dance-pop icons on the 2026 lineup, with her signature blend of vulnerability and late-night hedonism, while legacy Belgian electronic group Soulwax bring their innovative and forward-thinking rock meets electronic productions into the fold.
