ARC Music Festival is bringing house music home to Chicago again this summer. In preparation for the three-day event’s return to Union Park from August 30 to September 1, organizers have just dropped off a belter of a 2024 lineup.
Headlining acts slated to perform at the house and techno festival’s fourth edition include Grammy-nominated duo Disclosure, UK grime rapper-turned-house DJ Skepta, Chicago icon Honey Dijon, fan-favorite hitmaker Dom Dolla, and a historic back-to-back set from Carl Cox and Green Velvet.
ARC’s top billing also features techno, with sets from Cocoon Recordings architect Sven Väth and KNTXT label queen Charlotte de Witte.
Unique back-to-back sets will be a hallmark of ARC’s 2024 programming, with some of the world’s most in-demand selectors teaming up to deliver elusive performances, including Hot Since 82 B2B Chris Stussy, Sonny Fodera B2B Eats Everything, DJ Heartsting B2B Partiboi69, and PAWSA and Dennis Cruz‘s revered GOLFOS project.
The B2B madness continues with Detroit Love (Carl Craig B2B Moodymann) and Chicago house pioneers like Derrick Carter B2B Mark Farina, Hiroko Yamura B2B DJ Hyperactive and Marshall Jefferson B2B Gene Farris.
Passing the torch from one generation to the next, these trailblazers will be joined by even more of modern house music’s biggest global stars, including MEDUZA, Gorgon City, The Martinez Brothers, Purple Disco Machine and Chicago’s own Kaskade, performing one of his famous Redux sets.
ARC has also invited hard techno heavy hitters like Klangkuenstler, Reinier Zonneveld (Live) and Sara Landry as the genre’s worldwide popularity continues to surge.
Check out the complete lineup below.
Beyond the four-stage house and techno paradise on festival grounds, organizers have confirmed the return of ARC’s extensive ARC After Dark afterparty series. Running from Thursday to Monday, these events—available only for ARC ticket holders—will span over 13 venues, 30 parties and 80 artists.
