Lightning in a Bottle has announced the 2026 lineup for The Stacks, one of the festival’s six stages and a longtime favorite for high-energy, late-night programming. The stage lineup arrives as part of the build-up to Lightning in a Bottle’s return to Buena Vista Lake in Southern California, taking place May 20–24, 2026 over Memorial Day Weekend.
Known for pushing bass, experimental, and boundary-blurring sounds into the early hours, The Stacks continues its reputation as one of LIB’s most electrifying environments.
TOKiMONSTA to Lead Opening Ceremony
This year’s Stacks programming kicks off with a special Opening Ceremony set from TOKiMONSTA, setting the tone for a weekend rooted in movement, energy, and late-night exploration. Additional highlights include The Glitch Mob, the return of Team Supreme led by Mr. Carmack, along with standout names like Mary Droppinz, Reaper, SAKA, Pangea Sound, A Hundred Drums, Lumasi, and Nikita, The Wicked.
The Stacks lineup blends bass-heavy power, experimental club sounds, and underground energy, offering a sharp contrast to LIB’s more melodic and eclectic daytime programming.
Also featured are special takeovers including Team Supreme featuring Project Paradis (Mr. Carmack B2B Promnite), Great Dane, and Dot, as well as an ALL:LO takeover with Alex Unger, Parkbreezy, Pheel., TF Marz, and Thought Process. As always, surprise guests are expected each night.

Returning once again to Buena Vista Lake, Lightning in a Bottle remains one of Do LaB’s flagship events, celebrated for its immersive environments, genre-spanning music programming, and community-driven experience that extends far beyond the dancefloor.
