Torino’s Parco Dora is about to become the beating heart of electronic music once again. From July 3–5, 2026, Kappa FuturFestival returns for another three-day odyssey in Parco Dora in Torinao, Italy through sound, design, and culture, and the Phase One lineup they’ve just dropped makes one thing crystal clear: this isn’t just another festival. It’s where Italy’s creative soul collides with the cutting edge of global electronic music.
The first wave of artists reads like a love letter to electronic music in all its forms. Michael Bibi, the Solid Grooves co-founder who’s become synonymous with infectious grooves, will share the billing with Charlotte de Witte, whose KNTXT label has become a techno institution in its own right. German legend Sven Väth brings decades of genre-defining experience, while Sebastian Ingrosso of Swedish House Mafia fame represents the Grammy-nominated royalty of dance music. Then there’s Amelie Lens, the EXHALE founder whose relentless energy behind the decks has made her one of techno’s most commanding forces.
But it’s not just about the headliners. Brazil’s Mochakk has gone from viral sensation to essential booking, and Italy’s own Enrico Sangiuliano continues to prove why he’s one of techno’s most technically gifted artists. The real magic, though, might come from the collaborations. Ben Klock going back-to-back with Marcel Dettmann is the kind of Berlin techno dream pairing that fans circle in red on their calendars. Paco Osuna teaming up with Nicole Moudaber promises a masterclass in driving, hypnotic techno, while STOOR Live brings together Colin Benders, Lady Starlight, and Speedy J for what’s sure to be an unpredictable live experience.
Dig deeper into the lineup and you’ll find UK favorites Skream and Fleur Shore joining forces, alongside genre-bending artist Avalon Emerson, whose sets refuse to be boxed into any single sound. Chicago pioneer DJ Rush represents the roots of the music, while Romania’s Rhadoo brings that distinctive minimal touch that’s captivated underground purists for years. If you’re craving something harder, Dyen and Shlømo‘s collaboration will deliver the kind of industrial-strength grooves that rattle your chest.
The Italian scene gets its flowers too, with vinyl aficionados Adiel and Quest bringing their crate-digging expertise to the decks. Berlin’s Clara Cuvé will electrify with her distinctive energy, while UK underground champion Jane Fitz and Spanish groove specialist Wade each represent different corners of the house and techno spectrum. And for something truly eclectic, Erol Alkan teaming up with Confidence Man as DJs is the kind of left-field pairing that reminds you why Kappa Futur consistently surprises.
The roster continues with Anxhela, Basswell, Dawn Patrol, Greg Willen going back-to-back with Sizing, the legendary Mala, Nikolina, Objekt, Onlynumbers, Prunk joining forces with YOUniverse, and Serafina teaming with Serafina And this is just phase one—more names are still to come.
What makes Kappa Futur special isn’t just who’s playing, but where they’re playing. The festival sprawls across six stages nestled within Parco Dora’s industrial relics and green spaces, a location that perfectly captures Italy’s journey from industrial past to creative present. Techno purists, house heads, and experimental sound seekers all find their home here, with the festival’s production turning every corner of the park into its own sonic universe.
For those wanting to dive even deeper, the Art + Techno Experience returns in 2026, transforming the festival into a four-day luxury immersion. Think curated gallery tours, fine dining, and upscale accommodations that position electronic music not just as entertainment, but as a full lifestyle and cultural experience. It’s the kind of elevated approach that recognizes dance music has grown far beyond warehouse raves.
The numbers tell their own story. DJ Mag ranked Kappa FuturFestival as the 6th Best Festival in the World in 2025. The event draws passionate fans from over 150 countries, all converging on Torino for this annual pilgrimage. And it’s not just culture—the festival pumps more than €30 million into the local economy each year, proving that creativity and commerce can dance together quite beautifully.
As Kappa Futur gears up for 2026, it’s clear this festival has evolved into something more than a summer weekend. It’s become a defining pillar of Italian culture, a global destination where the past and future of electronic music meet on equal footing, and a reminder that when you bring the right artists to the right place, magic happens.
