Lost Lands 2026 Lineup
Excision's dinosaur-themed headbanging convention — three days at Legend Valley and the largest concentration of heavy dubstep on the calendar.
About Lost Lands 2026
Lost Lands is the largest gathering of heavy dubstep on the planet, and it is unapologetic about it. Excision built it at Legend Valley in Ohio, decorated it with animatronic dinosaurs, and books essentially nothing but bass across three days and 200-plus sets.
Excision himself takes three billings — a two-hour set, a Detox set and a b2b with Space Laces. Beneath that the top block is a full survey of the genre: Subtronics, Seven Lions, Illenium, Slander, Ganja White Night, Liquid Stranger, Zomboy, Flux Pavilion, Caspa, Funtcase, Krewella and Sullivan King. The lower block runs over a hundred deep into riddim, halftime and experimental bass.
Day splits for the main three days haven't been published. Early-entry pre-parties run on the Wednesday and Thursday beforehand, drawing from the same pool of artists.
Expect dubstep, dance, electronic and bass across 210 acts.
