Kaskade and Insomniac Announce Sun Soaked Festival Return

Festival Returns After Sold-Out 2025 Edition

Kaskade and Insomniac have confirmed the return of Sun Soaked Festival to Huntington State Beach on Saturday, September 12, 2026. The beachside event, which sold out in 2025, will feature a lineup including Cassian, Matroda, BUNT., D.O.D, Me N Ü, Lavern, Bobby Harvey, and Esse. Presale opens Friday, June 26 at 10:00 AM PT, with public on-sale following at 12:00 PM PT.

Kaskade to Perform Two Sets, Including Rare B2B

Kaskade will perform twice during the day—a solo headline set and a back-to-back with BUNT., marking a rare live collaboration between the two artists. The b2b follows the release of their joint single "Comes Back Around," which Kaskade debuted at Coachella earlier this year as part of his ORIGIN // live concept.

Event Carries Personal Significance for Kaskade

Sun Soaked, which Kaskade co-created with Insomniac and originally launched in 2017, has grown from a boutique beach gathering into a destination event. The festival is set directly on the sands of Huntington Beach with the Pacific Ocean as a backdrop.

"Sun Soaked has always been about bringing people together somewhere that feels different," said Kaskade. "There's something about standing on the beach with the ocean behind you, surrounded by people who love music, that changes the energy completely. Every year it evolves a little bit, but the feeling stays the same. That's what keeps bringing me back."

The announcement comes during a busy period for Kaskade, who closed the Sahara Stage at Coachella in April, unveiled his ORIGIN // live concept, and released "Meet Again," the official EDC Las Vegas 2026 anthem alongside Layton Giordani and Natalie Jane.
