There are festival announcements… and then there is this.
For its 25th anniversary, C2C Festival in Turin has just unveiled the first names of its 2026 line-up and, honestly, there’s no doubt why this festival is considered one of the best in Europe. Headlining this first wave: Robyn, Oklou, Arca, Kelela, Chanel Beads, Joanne Robertson, underscores, Yung Lean & Bladee, BADBADNOTGOOD, Theo Parrish, Crystallmess, KMRU, Chuquimamani-Condori… and this is only the beginning.
We were in Turin last year for the festival, and we can say it without hesitation: this is probably the best place for avant-pop and future-leaning indie music. The curation is on another level. The crowd is international, curious, and deeply tuned in. And the music selection really fits those brutalist, industrial venues.
From October 29 to November 1, 2026, during Turin’s Contemporary Art Week, the C2C Festival will once again turn the city into a global capital of next-gen sound. The full programme is still to come. The Super Early Bird tickets are already sold out, but a new wave of Early Bird passes (limited quantity) will go on sale Wednesday, Feb 4 at 12:00 via DICE.
