San Diego County Fair Expands EDM Lineup with Marshmello, GRiZ, and More

1 week ago 20

Marshmello, GRiZ, and a Brownies & Lemonade takeover on the Fourth of July mark the San Diego County Fair’s expansion into bringing more electronic artists to the stage.

The San Diego County Fair has been at the forefront of pioneering new experiences for attendees, and its latest expansions have seen the multi-week experience dip into the electronic music scene. Last year, the fair hosted artists like Zedd and Big Gigantic, bringing these beloved acts to the family-friendly environment. The San Diego County Fair’s concert organizers have taken it to another level in 2026 by offering even more acts to be excited for as it kicks off its “Once Upon a Fair” theme.

The Toyota Summer Concert Series has become the talk of the town for many music lovers looking to get their fix over the years, and this is where the biggest electronic acts will take the stage. The festivities kick off during the San Diego County Fair’s first weekend on June 13, with a headline set from GRiZ, who will be joined by rising phenom Sippy for the ride. Then, on June 19, global EDM megastar Marshmello will make his way to the fair with his vibrant tunes and heavy dubstep set to shake the grandstands.

The annual Fourth of July soiree at the fair will also draw in thousands of dance music lovers. This year, they tapped Brownies & Lemonade for the Chevy Paddock Concert Series, with the takeover slated to begin at 7pm, before fireworks kick off at 9pm. The Los Angeles-based party throwers curated quite the lineup for bass lovers, with Boombox Cartel, Habstrakt, and a back-to-back featuring Saka and FLY.

Additionally, there are some other shows during the Chevy Paddock Concert Series that will pair well with the performances from GRiZ and Marshmello. Multi-media producer Artifakts is set to showcase his forward-thinking indie-electronic style on June 13, while Shrek Rave will make its debut at the fair with their Shrekno concept on June 19.

Other artists outside the electronic realm slated to play throughout the fair, which runs from June 10 to July 5, include Nelly, Chicago, Los Lucanes De Tijuana, Good Charlotte, and Demi Lovato, among others.

A general admission ticket to the San Diego County Fair includes access to all Chevy Paddock Stage performances. Tickets for GRiZ and Marshmello‘s sets during the Toyota Summer Concert Series are on sale now. Head to the official website for more information.
