Electric Forest 2026 lineup includes GRiZ, Illenium, Passion Pit, and even Shaq - Detroit Metro Times

GRiZ Brings Electric Forest 2026 Lineup to Michigan, Featuring Illenium, Passion Pit and a Surprise Appearance by Shaq.

Michigan's favorite sax-playing-DJ, GRiZ, is set to have an incredible 2026 with his name on the bill for the Electric Forest festival. The event, which takes place from June 25-28 in its longtime home in Rothbury, has announced over 100 artists, including electronic dance music (EDM) and jam band acts.

In addition to GRiZ's headlining performance, fans can look forward to sets by Illenium, Kaskade, Disco Lines, the String Cheese Incident, Channel Tres, and NBA legend Shaquille O'Neal. However, what makes Shaq's appearance truly unique is his collaboration with rapper T-Pain under the name DJ Diesel.

The festival will also feature a diverse range of artists, from electronic music stalwarts like GRiZ, Illenium, and Kaskade to lesser-known acts like AlleyCVT and Effin. The lineup reflects the festival's commitment to showcasing both established and emerging talent in the world of EDM and jam bands.

Tickets for Electric Forest 2026 will go on sale at noon on Friday, December 12, and can be purchased online through the official website. Fans are encouraged to mark their calendars for this momentous occasion and get ready to experience a weekend of music, art, and community in Michigan's scenic countryside.

The full lineup for Electric Forest 2026 has not been fully announced yet, but fans can expect an exciting mix of electronic and live acts that will push the boundaries of what the festival has to offer.
 
OMG, I'm so hyped for Electric Forest 2026 🤩! GRiZ is going to bring the house down with his sick sax playing and Illenium's epic beats are always a winner 😎. And can you believe Shaq is making a surprise appearance? 🤯 DJ Diesel and T-Pain, that's a crazy collab! I'm also stoked for all the other talented artists like Passion Pit and Channel Tres. The fact that there's a mix of old-school EDM legends and new talent is what makes this festival so exciting 🎉. Tickets are gonna fly off the shelves, so mark your calendars for December 12th and get ready to rave with me! 💃
 
Omg, I'm super stoked for Electric Forest 2026! The lineup is looking epic 🤩 with some big names like Illenium, Passion Pit, and even Shaq 🦸‍♂️! I mean, who wouldn't want to see the Big Diesel drop some beats on stage? It's gonna be a wild weekend in Michigan and I'm low-key hoping to score some sick tickets 🎟️. The diversity of acts is what I love about EF - it's not just about the EDM scene, there's always room for jam bands and other vibes. Can't wait to see what GRiZ has in store for us this year!
 
Just got the scoop on Electric Forest 2026! 🤩🎶 I'm stoked to see Illenium and Passion Pit on the lineup - those guys always bring the energy! But, gotta say, Shaq as a DJ? 🤯 That's a new one for me. Never thought we'd see NBA legend turn up at a festival spin set with T-Pain as DJ Diesel. I'm hyped to see how that collab goes down! And GRiZ is always a highlight - his sax skills are on point. The vibe of Electric Forest just keeps getting bigger and better, can't wait for the weekend in June 🌳💃
 
omg u gotta check this out lol 🤯! So GRiZ is bringing his Electric Forest 2026 lineup to Michigan and it's gonna be EPIC!!! 🎉 I'm so stoked for Illenium, Passion Pit, and Shaq (yes, SHAQ!)!!! 😂 who knew the big man could DJ?!? DJ Diesel collab with T-Pain is lit 🔥! I know some people might be worried about the tickets but let's be real, it's Electric Forest, it's gonna sell out quick 🤯. Make sure to set those alarms for Dec 12 at noon when tickets go on sale 🕰️. Can't wait to see all the amazing artists and have an epic time in Michigan!
 
OMG, can you even imagine Shaq getting down on the dance floor with T-Pain as DJ Diesel? 🤣🔥 It's gonna be a wild ride at Electric Forest 2026! I'm low-key super hyped for GRiZ and Illenium's sets - they're always bringing that energy. And, of course, Kaskade is always on point. But what I'm really stoked about is the diversity of acts this year - it's gonna be so cool to see some new faces alongside familiar names. I'm also curious to see how Shaq's surprise appearance is received... will he even bust out his signature move, the "Shaq-fu"? 😂🎉
 
🤔 I'm not buying it... Shaq is a basketball legend, not a DJ! How did he end up on the Electric Forest lineup? 🏀🎶 I need some proof or an explanation from GRiZ himself before I start getting hyped about this surprise appearance. Where's the video of him practicing his DJing skills or something? 😂 And what's with T-Pain teaming up with Shaq too? Sounds like a marketing stunt to me 🤑. I'll wait for some credible sources before starting my Electric Forest 2026 countdown 🎉
