Kappa FuturFestival 2026 will take place from July 3 to 5 in Parco Dora, Turin, Italy. Now in its 13th edition, the festival will be held over three days.
Kappa FuturFestival began in 2009 under the name FuturFestival, created to celebrate the centenary of Futurism, before evolving into its current name in 2012 as one of Italy’s leading electronic music festivals. Since then, it has consistently been recognized as one of Europe’s key summer festivals.
The festival takes place at Parco Dora, a post-industrial park in Turin developed from a former steel industrial site. The area combines industrial heritage with green spaces, art, sports, and cultural functions as part of an urban regeneration project. Parts of the original steel structures and concrete facilities have been preserved. Kappa FuturFestival has been held there since 2012 and has grown together with the site.
Six stages define the festival, each offering different musical directions across techno, house, EDM, and underground electronic music. The Futur Stage serves as the central platform hosting global artists, while the Solar Stage focuses on high-energy techno sounds. The Voyager Stage combines visual arts with immersive experiences, and the Kosmo Stage is presented as an experimental space where art and technology merge. The Nova Stage reflects the evolution of club culture, while the Lab Stage is dedicated to improvisation and experimentation. The Kosmo Stage will also feature an installation project by artist Marinella Senatore, creating a space where music, art, and technology intersect.
The 2026 lineup includes internationally recognized artists such as Armin van Buuren, Charlotte de Witte, Amelie Lens, Peggy Gou, Solomun, Sven Väth, Richie Hawtin, Four Tet, Skrillex, Diplo, Jamie Jones, and Joseph Capriati. Notable highlights include B2B performances such as Four Tet with Skrillex, as well as collaborative sets featuring Jamie Jones, Joseph Capriati, and Seth Troxler.
The festival also continues to develop sustainability initiatives. Since 2019, it has eliminated plastic straws and gradually introduced eco-friendly materials for its official fans. It has also implemented a cigarette butt recycling program and is progressively transitioning water bottles to rPET material, with a target of full adoption by 2026. Additional initiatives include a visitor recycling reward system, the “Vintage for Futur” clothing program, and recycling-based art projects.
