Fresh off its DJ Awards win as Best Global Festival 2025, UNUM steps confidently into 2026 with a renewed artistic vision and its most ambitious edition so far. The festival returns to Shëngjin, Albania, where mountain, pine, and the Adriatic coastline merge into a setting unmatched in Europe. Over five days and five nights, UNUM once again promises uninterrupted music in one of the continent’s most naturally striking locations.
This year’s Phase 1 announcement reflects the festival’s spirit: a meeting point for legends, innovators, and rising talents. The first wave brings a showcase of underground excellence, setting the tone for what awaits next summer.
Phase 1: A Lineup Built for the Adriatic
Leading the 2026 roster are some of the most respected names in electronic music, including East End Dubs, Ricardo Villalobos, Ben Klock, Raresh, Craig Richards, Richy Ahmed, DJ Tennis, Dyed Soundorom, plus standout appearances from Gerd Janson and Krystal Klear.
They arrive alongside key figures such as Margaret Dygas, Dan Ghenacia, Praslea, Priku, Francesco Del Garda, Maher Daniel, Cap, and Tobi Neumann, each bringing their own imprint to UNUM’s open-air dancefloors.
The announcement also shines a light on the new wave shaping the future of the underground: Anna Wall, Arapu, Bobby, Cameron Jack, Diosa, Fell Reis, Harry McCanna, Jonny n Travis, and more. Together, they introduce the energy and direction that will guide UNUM into its seventh year.
Stages That Define the UNUM Experience
UNUM has built its identity around its natural surroundings, and each stage captures a different part of that landscape:
- The Pine Stage
A nonstop musical core deep within the forest, known for its immersive atmosphere and late-night intensity. - The Beach Stage
Where daytime rhythms blend with sunlight, sea breeze, and the Adriatic horizon. - The Main Stage
Home to the festival’s nighttime power, designed for peak moments and large-scale performances.
Across all three spaces, the festival maintains its commitment to pure underground music, community, and freedom — values that keep drawing fans from around the world.
A New 2026 Highlight: The Panoramic After Party
For 2026, UNUM introduces a signature event that stands apart from anything in its history. The festival will host a special after party at a panoramic hilltop venue overlooking Shëngjin and the Adriatic Sea.
This modern, open structure is designed to welcome the sunrise in a setting that feels almost otherworldly. With space for only 500 people, it is expected to become one of the most anticipated moments of the entire week — a rare chance to experience UNUM from a completely new perspective.

Phase 1 tickets begin at €95, while complete packages — including accommodation, transport options, and festival access — start below €300, keeping UNUM among Europe’s most accessible long-duration music festivals.

Shaping Albania’s International Festival Presence

With its growing global recognition, UNUM has become a cultural landmark for Albania, introducing the country to thousands of international music fans each year.
As preparations for 2026 continue, the festival stands ready to open a new chapter — one defined by connection, artistic depth, and the unmistakable magic of Shëngjin.
