DGTL Festival Announces Its 14th Edition With First Wave of International Headliners and Next-Gen Talent

After a legendary ADE week in the NDSM Warehouse, DGTL returns to its home base at the NDSM Wharf for the 14th edition of DGTL Festival. From April 3 – 5, 2026, the iconic site will once again transform into a futuristic playground where music, art, community, and sustainability come together as one. Today, DGTL unveils the first names for the upcoming edition: a line-up filled with international headliners, groundbreaking live acts, and next-generation talent shaping the future of electronic music. The full program, including Friday’s electrifying opening night, will be revealed in the coming months.

 

Saturday, April 4
DGTL’s Saturday promises a day full of high-energy sounds, offering a diverse mix of house, techno, and live performances. British duo CamelPhat bring tension and euphoric build-ups to the dance floor, their signature sound  an effortless blend of emotional depth and club-ready energy, progressive house and melodic techno. Interplanetary Criminal adds the raw energy of UK garage, filled with sharp breaks and rhythms straight from Manchester’s bristling underground.

 

On the Modular Stage, Gotu Jim presents a live set that brings his signature fusion of dark, emotional hip hop, house, and trap with elements of hyper pop and emo house. His music captures the euphoric and introspective feelings of nightlife with emotional yet infectious tracks and is definitely one not to be missed. DGTL favourite Jayda G is back to  delight crowds with her irresistible mix of disco, house, and funk. Sunny, playful, and with an off-stage message that fits perfectly with DGTL, including her documentary Blue Carbon, which showcases how music and science come together to raise awareness about nature and climate.

 

Kamma & Yu Su share the turntables at DGTL for the first time with a B2B set that combines soulful grooves and cosmic house; an encounter between Amsterdam flow and the dreamy, textured soundscape with subtle references to Chinese folk traditions. Also noteworthy this year is horsegiirL, the already-iconic artist who redefines the boundary between performance and rave with her new audiovisual live show. An irreverent, surreal mix of vocals, visuals, and hyperactive club energy, her show promises to be one for the DGTL books.



Sunday, April 5
DGTL’s Sunday closes the weekend with a lineup that celebrates the full breadth of electronic music — from intimate melodies all the way through to raw rave energy. After his explosive performance during ADE, and still buzzing after his unexpected pop-up rave at Amsterdam Central Station, DJ Benwal from Groningen returns for DGTL 2026. Fans should strap in for a set that brings together hard trance, rave, and house with modern influences and an indomitable energy that has made him one of the fastest rising home stars of the Dutch electronic scene.

 

Grammy nominee Dom Dolla brings his rousing house sound to the NDSM shipyard, groovy, powerful, and made for mass euphoria. I Hate Models takes the audience on an emotional journey full of intensity, his sets navigating between melancholic synthwave, trance, and industrial techno, with a raw aesthetic that seamlessly intertwines dance floor and emotion.

 

With his eclectic mix of house, techno, trance, and eurodance, Odymel is one of the most striking new names on the scene. Since his breakthrough in 2023, he has been touching audiences with melodies that feel both nostalgic and groundbreaking. DJ Gigola shows why she is considered one of the most exciting acts from Berlin. Her sets mix techno, rap, and hyperpop into a unique, playful form of rave that is as intense as it is infectious.

 

From Amsterdam’s nightlife scene, Luuk van Dijk brings his recognizable groove, warm, swinging house with a punch that keeps the dance floor moving. Weval (live) adds their distinctive, cinematic sound, which in their latest work has taken on a more dancefloor-oriented and clubby direction, still rich in emotion, but with extra energy and groove.

 

About DGTL
Since its first edition in 2013, DGTL has distinguished itself as a unique festival with a focus on music, art, sustainability, and social safety. With this, DGTL has conquered its position in the global festival landscape. The DGTL team strives for inclusivity for all genders, backgrounds, sexual orientations, identities, and ages. In 2022, DGTL began its journey of exploring the concepts of safe spaces and festival ethics with the DGTL Safe(r) Project. For the 2026 edition, DGTL will continue to build on that journey. In 2022, DGTL reached an important milestone and became the first circular dance festival in the world. The Amsterdam festival has now gone far beyond the country’s borders with editions in Santiago, Bengaluru, Mumbai, and Lima.
