Excision, Subtronics, Above & Beyond, Chris Lake, I Hate Models, Hedex, Ivy Lab, Chris Lake, Zingara, and more are set to play Elements Festival this year.
Tucked away in the Poconos mountains, Elements Music and Arts Festival has welcomed ravers into its musical oasis each summer for an immersive weekend of music, art, and community. It has become a beloved fixture of the East Coast’s camping festival scene, and this year, Elements is returning to its home at the Poconos Raceway in Long Pond, Pennsylvania, from August 7-9.
Elements Festival always has something for everyone’s tastes, and this year is no different. Some standouts on the lineup are Excision, Level Up, SVDDEN DEATH, Subtronics, and Crankdat for the heavy dubstep crowd, DnB heavyweight Sub Focus and jump-up aficionado Hedex, and a Porter Robinson DJ set. Attendees more interested in catching the wobblier side of bass music can catch sets from Zingara, WonkyWilla, GorillaT, while artists like Of The Trees, Daily Bread, and Nikita, The Wicked, will bring their mind-melting bass to the Poconos.
The house and techno crowds are in for a treat, too. Artists they won’t want to miss are house phenom Chris Lake and hard techno force I Hate Models, as well as it’s murph, Cloonee, ACRAZE, KETTAMA, and Westend, among others.
Sunsets will be a real vibe at Elements Festival this year, with Louis the Child, Ganja White Knight, and CloZee all soundtracking the shift from golden hour to after dark. Other special highlights include two sets from LSDREAM, one of those being his meditative sound bath project Lightcode earlier in the day. Meanwhile, CloZee will be doing an Odyzey stage takeover featuring OPIUO, ProbCause, and Skysia.
Ivy Lab is also making an appearance at Elements. After a decade of making music, the duo recently announced that the project will come to an end in late 2026, so this may be one of the last opportunities to catch them at a festival. Additionally, San Pacho and Saka b2b Fly will play the Thursday pre-party, while Crankdat will go back-to-back with a surprise artist, to be announced closer to the festival.
Beyond the music, admission to the festival includes access to art installations, vendors, art cars, workshops, wellness activities like yoga and aromatherapy, and the opportunity to book salon appointments at their Unicorn Lounge or spa treatments at their Zen Den Wellness Spa.
Passes are now on sale, starting at $329.99. Head to the official website to make your purchase. This is only the phase one lineup, so be sure to follow Elements on Instagram to find out when the rest of the artists are announced.
