UNUM Festival 2026 Reveals Full Lineup, Bringing Minimal and Leftfield Techno to Albania

Following a landmark year that saw UNUM crowned Best Global Festival 2025 at the DJ Awards, the festival continues to bridge the worlds of minimal, house, techno, and eclectic club music. The full 2026 roster is now confirmed, and on paper it reads like someone raided the guest list of every club night worth attending in the last decade.

Since launching in 2019, UNUM has evolved into one of Europe's most respected boutique electronic music festivals. Its distinctive format of five days and five nights of uninterrupted music has cultivated a loyal international community of dancers, artists, and tastemakers seeking a deeper connection between sound, environment, and experience. Set along Albania's Adriatic coastline, the festival offers a rare balance of pristine natural surroundings and uncompromising underground programming. This year the event runs June 4-8 at Rana e Hedhun Beach in Shëngjin.

While the foundation was already solid with the likes of Ricardo Villalobos, Ben Klock, Raresh, and Praslea, the final additions shift the energy into even deeper, more eclectic territory. Leading the final wave is Keinemusik founder &ME, whose melodic and emotive sound has become a defining force on global dancefloors. Also joining the 2026 edition are Cinthie, Berlin's house authority and Elevate Records founder, respected minimalist Voigtmann, Swiss innovator Alci, and Amsterdam favourite Reiss. The programming across this bill is genuinely wide: you get the breakbeat euphoria of Prospa, the encyclopedic house selections of Gerd Janson, minimal grooves from Arapu and Franco Cinelli, the leftfield curiosities of DJ Tennis, and the technical precision of Francesco Del Garda, all on the same site. The full performing roster includes Ricardo Villalobos, Ben Klock, Raresh, Craig Richards, Dan Andrei, Dan Ghenacia, DJ Tennis, Dyed Soundorom, East End Dubs, Franco Cinelli, Francesco Del Garda, Gerd Janson, Krystal Klear, Maher Daniel, Margaret Dygas, Praslea, Priku, Prospa, Richy Ahmed, and Tobi Neumann, among others.

The structural addition that has the community talking is the new fourth stage. For 2026, UNUM introduces a fourth, secret stage, designed to push the boundaries of discovery and connection even further. Featuring a series of unannounced sets from headline artists, international talent, and emerging Balkan artists shaping the region's growing electronic scene, this hidden experience will move between multiple locations across the festival site. The Pine Stage remains the non-stop 24/7 heartbeat under the forest canopy, and the Beach Stage serves as the coastal meeting point, with 2026 also introducing a panoramic spot diligently used as an after-party bay. The secret stage sits on top of all that, giving the explorers something to actually chase between sets.

The lineup is designed to evolve organically across the festival's unique 24/7 format, shaped as much by its environment as by the artists themselves, which in practice means the balance between Margaret Dygas's deep, considered selections and Dan Andrei's rolling grooves will shift differently depending on where you are on site and what time the sun is sitting over the Adriatic.

Tickets start at just €95, with full packages including accommodation, travel and five days of festival access available from under €300. Early Bird tickets are already a distant memory, and with the festival seeing its fastest sales to date, the window is slowly thinning out. With demand for the 2026 edition already exceeding previous years, UNUM is set to deliver its most ambitious edition yet. Secure your place at unumfestival.com.
