CRSSD returns to Waterfront Park with its fall 2026 lineup

CRSSD has revealed its fall 2026 lineup, returning to Waterfront Park in downtown San Diego on Sept. 26 and 27.

Run by FNGRS CRSSD since 2015, the festival has built its name on daytime house and techno along the bayfront, drawing a 21-and-over crowd twice a year.

Up top are English house producer Chris Lake and Disclosure, who linked in the studio on 2024’s “in2minds” and now take that partnership b2b. They’re joined by Brazilian producer Mochakk, the long-running British duo Groove Armada, and grime star Skepta, who plays house under his Más Tiempo alias.

The lineup also features more raw, driving house and techno performances, with Hamburg’s Helena Hauff, the hardware techno of Venice duo 999999999, and the high-speed sets of Polish DJ VTSS.

Crossover acts, combining electronic music production with live elements, are a fixture of CRSSD’s lineup, and this year that means Big Wild’s live instrumentation, the soulful dance-pop of Chicago’s DRAMA, and the art-pop of French musician Sébastien Tellier.

Waterfront Park is a 12-acre stretch between the bay and the downtown skyline, with open lawns and large walk-in fountains for cooling off in the midday sun. The weekend splits across three stages: Ocean View, The Palms, and City Steps. The CRSSD Lab gives over a space to vinyl and new artists.

Finally if you cant get enough music during the festival, CRSSD After Dark takes over clubs around town, with those lineups due closer to the date. Limited single day tickets available soon at crssdfest.com
