From May 22 to May 24, the iconic BottleRock Napa Valley returns to Northern California with a massive and genre‑crossing 2026 lineup that promises something for almost every music fan. As one of the Bay Area’s premier music, food, and wine festivals, BottleRock has become a Memorial Day weekend staple — and this year’s roster underscores its reputation for eclectic, crowd‑pleasing talent.
Headliners span multiple eras and styles. Foo Fighters will bring their anthemic rock energy back to the Napa Valley expo grounds, while Lorde’s nuanced pop and alternative songwriting offers a modern contrast. Festival organizers also tapped nostalgia with Backstreet Boys and the rising star power of SOMBR, blending generational favorites with new sounds. Adding further genre diversity are performers like Teddy Swims, LCD Soundsystem, Lil Wayne, Zedd, and Ludacris, alongside legendary acts that range from Chaka Khan to Joan Jett and the Blackhearts.
In total, more than 80 artists across rock, pop, hip‑hop, funk, soul, and electronic music are set to take the stages. The lineup also includes Papa Roach, Busta Rhymes, Kool & the Gang, Tash Sultana, Mt. Joy, Natasha Bedingfield, and many others — making the weekend not just a music festival but a broad celebration of contemporary and classic sounds.
Beyond the music, BottleRock continues its tradition of pairing great performances with world‑class culinary experiences, wine tastings, and art installations, giving attendees a fully immersive Napa Valley experience.
Three‑day general admission tickets start at $475 and will be available starting at 10 a.m. PST on January 14, with some higher‑tier ticket options already sold out in earlier presales. For fans chasing a blend of rock‑driven nostalgia and contemporary festival flair, BottleRock Napa Valley 2026 looks poised to shine.
