Kx5, Above & Beyond, and Eli Brown to Headline Next We Belong Here Brooklyn Event

The acclaimed New York City festival series We Belong Here has officially unveiled its roster for the upcoming June 19-21 event. This year, the festivities will migrate to a new, scenic location: the Brooklyn Army Terminal, situated along the waterfront in the Sunset Park neighborhood.

Making its debut at this historic site, the festival boasts an impressive selection of electronic music heavyweights. The lineup is headlined by Kx5—the powerhouse collaboration between icons Kaskade and deadmau5—alongside trance titans Above & Beyond. Joining them are UK techno standout Eli Brown, melodic house favorite Lane 8, Sultan + Shepard, and Oliver Heldens, among others.

Fans can secure their spots during the pre-sale on March 19, with general ticket sales opening the following day, March 20. This expansion follows the brand’s successful 2025 run, which featured sold-out, intimate editions in Greenpoint and Central Park’s Wollman Rink during the previous autumn.

“The response to last year’s Brooklyn and Central Park events showed us how hungry this city is for a festival experience built on community, intentional design, and music discovery,” co-founder Charles Hochfelder stated. “The vast footprint of the Brooklyn Army Terminal allows us to bring that vision to life across multiple stages, pairing global headliners with the local collectives that define the city’s underground pulse.”

Beyond the primary stages, We Belong Here Brooklyn will place a spotlight on the city’s homegrown talent. A dedicated stage will feature New York-based artists and brands, including Aqutie’s Pele Pele, the Bushwick-based collective Raw Cuts, the Dance Here Now party series, and the legendary Nervous Records. Enhancing the atmosphere, New York’s iconic open-air food market, Smorgasburg, has signed on as the official culinary partner.
