With Movement Detroit 2026 two months away, organizers have shared stage lineups to help you envision catching your favorite artists on Hart Plaza.

House and techno fans the world over are getting more and more excited for Movement Detroit. In February, organizers caught their attention by sharing the festival’s 2026 lineup by day. Now, they’ve further broken out the spate of headliners into daily stage lineups for the gathering set to return to Hart Plaza from May 23-25.

The Movement Stage predictably bills some of the buzziest names on the Movement Detroit 2026 roster. Among them are hard techno it-girl Sara Landry on Saturday, longtime house and techno figurehead Carl Cox on Sunday, and Detroit icon Delano Smith on Monday.

Meanwhile, the Waterfront Stage is hosting artists like local ghetto house mainstay DJ Godfather, rising house star Barry Can’t Swim, and jungle queen Nia Archives on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday, respectively. And set beneath the “Transcending” monument’s stainless steel arch, the Star Gate stage will provide a platform for talent like Detroit icons Carl Craig b2b Cajmere, rising UK DJ Josh Baker, and his fellow Brit Hot Since 81 over the course of the festival.

As its name suggests, the Underground Stage is most the popular among techno’s selective undercurrent of fans. In 2026, its Saturday headliners will include Dax J and Ellen Allien b2b DJ Stingray, with Lindsey Herbert and Oscar Mulero on Sunday, and Detroit Techno Militia and KI/KI on Monday.

The Pyramid Stage and Detroit Stage are the final two music areas at Movement Detroit 2026. At the former, fans can expect to catch sets by the likes of Claude VonStroke, Octo Octa, ANNA, and DJ Minx over the weekend. Locals like Rebecca Goldberg, Lady Witch, and Sillygirlcarmen are set to perform at the latter.
