Day Trip NorCal Unveils Debut Lineup For 2026

Day Trip NorCal

Day Trip is heading North.

For the first time, Day Trip Festival lands in Northern California on October 17-18. Taking over San Jose’s Discovery Meadow in partnership with NPU Live, the expansion brings the Insomniac brand’s signature house and techno focus into Downtown San Jose.

Day Trip NorCal’s Saturday lineup is anchored by a B2B from Gordo and Vintage Culture, with Eli Brown stepping into a sunset slot. Wax Motif joins alongside SCRIPT, JLittle, and Lefty. The next night offers even more groove with a roster led by Cloonee, as well as Matroda and San Pacho’s special “After Midnight” set. Fallon, Eve Lauren, and Sage round things out, with one more artist still to be revealed. Check out the full lineup below.

After making its way to the Pacific Northwest with Day Trip Seattle, Day Trip’s NorCal debut marks the festival’s continued expansion beyond Los Angeles, where it began as a laid-back club gathering in 2018.

Tickets for Day Trip NorCal 2026 go on sale this Friday, May 8, at 12PM PT.
