John Summit Unveils Finalized Lineup for 2026 Experts Only Festival in New York

The highly anticipated Experts Only Festival 2026, spearheaded by superstar house producer John Summit, has officially revealed its complete, star-studded roster.
Expanding on an already massive initial announcement, the final wave introduces powerhouse pairings and underground favorites. West Coast producer Max Styler will join forces with Tel Aviv’s own Adam Ten for an exclusive back-to-back performance. They are joined by English house stalwart Will Clarke, Southern California talent Broken Hill, and Munich-based producer Innellea collaborating b2b with Ukrainian sensation Korolova. New York’s local favorite No Static and Virginia-born artist rSun round out the latest additions to the bill.
These stellar acts complete a lineup anchored by Summit himself, who is scheduled to deliver a high-energy solo set alongside a collaborative performance with Subtronics under their joint moniker, Subjohnics. Other major highlights include British phenom Prospa, bass architect LYNY, experimental soundscape artist Rohaan, garage heavyweight Nulight, label staple Devault, peak-time selector Dreya V, Israeli artist OMRI., Australia’s boundary-pushing Partiboi69, rising star Jackie Hollander, Los Angeles techno-fusion visionary Airrica, Brazilian indie-dance maestro Gabss, and emerging talents MADI, Soraya, and Korolova.
The two-day immersive experience returns to New York City’s Randall’s Island Park on September 19–20, reclaiming the scenic grounds that hosted its triumphant debut. Tickets are available for purchase now, with production helmed by industry leaders Medium Rare, Relentless Beats, and EMW.
Organizers anticipate welcoming roughly 50,000 electronic music enthusiasts across three distinct stages. Attendees can explore the main stage, the visually captivating Mirror Field—surrounded by monumental art installations and interactive programming—and the exclusive Pwemium Lounge. Inspired by Summit’s viral comedic meme, the Pwemium Lounge promises an intimate, meticulously designed indie-dance sanctuary unlike anything else on the festival footprint.
