Deep Tropics 2026 Lineup: Mochakk, Of The Trees, and More

1 hour ago 2

Deep Tropics is relocating from its longtime home of Bicentennial Park to The Pinnacle at Nashville Yards in 2026.

An increasingly popular Nashville dance music institution is gearing up to return from September 4-6. Deep Tropics, a festival renowned for its environmental initiatives, is moving to The Pinnacle at Nashville Yards with a lineup sure to inspire thousands of ravers to follow it there.

Several names practically leap out from the bill. Among them are Brazilian tech house superstar Mochakk, modern UK junglist Nia Archives, US experimental bass icon Of The Trees, and German techno talent Lilly Palmer, all of whom command a formidable draw in their own right.

But the Deep Tropics 2026 lineup shows that its organizers keep their finger on the pulse by platforming a number of breakthrough acts. Among them are German genre-bender BUNT., rising US house music star OMNOM, US experimental bass artist WonkyWilla, and eclectic French producer Swimming Paul.

According to organizers, moving to The Pinnacle will allow them to host the first large-scale event with the festival’s zero-waste model in the indoor-outdoor venue’s history. Last year, Deep Tropics boasted an 88% waste diversion rate. The new space will also afford them 20,000 square feet for vendors and local artist performances.

Earlier this year, Deep Tropics’ plans to expand into hosting an additional event coinciding with the spring equinox were derailed within days of its debut. Organizers chalked the cancellation up to their failure to comply with local regulations. They had previously announced plans to a move the offshoot festival from Bicentennial Park to Warehouse Residency, and members of their staff complained about nonpayment on social media.

Tickets go on sale Thursday, June 18 at 12pm CT. Purchase yours via AXS, and find more details on the Deep Tropics website.
