Sun Soaked has become an annual tradition at Huntington Beach in California. This year was no different as Kaskade brings the special weekend back to the OC with a handful of his friends to make it an even more memorable weekend.
Sun Soaked 2026 brought what is likely their greatest lineup to date with 2 special performances from the man himself, Kaskade. Opening the night was performances from rising talents, Esse, Lavern and ME N U. The crowd started piling in throughout the first few hours to take part in all the festivities that were taking place throughout the venue grounds. This year’s Sun Soaked also featured their first ever volleyball tournament where even Kaskade took part in some of the fun. After ME N U took the stage, the rest of the night was stacked with star-studded roster of talent. D.O.D took the stage to warm up the ambiance for the evening sets. Soon after D.O.D, BUNT. took the stage for a debut B2B performance with Kaskade in a 360 set that took place right in the middle of the crowd. The signature BUNT. performance style created immersive experience for all those in attendance but this was just the start of the night.
The duo of BUNT. and Kaskade played a captivating mixture of music between the 2 artists and of course dropped their collaboration together ‘Comes Back Around‘. Following their set, Matroda took the mainstage for an entertaining performance warming up the room for Kaskade to take the stage once again for his second set of the event. The legendary DJ took the stage for another hour and half performance filled with classic unforgettable tunes but also snuck in some new music from his upcoming album ‘ORIGIN //’. To close out the night, Cassian took the stage for the final hour of Sun Soaked.
Sun Soaked has become one of the staple events of the OC and it just continues to get better and better by the year. There is no better way to close out the summer than with a full day outing at the beach jamming out to Kaskade’s undeniable vibes. Make sure to check out Kaskade’s upcoming album this Friday ‘ORIGIN //’.
