Beyond Wonderland PNW 2026: What You Need to Know About This Year’s Event!
We are just around the corner from one of our favorite festivals of the year: Beyond Wonderland PNW at the Gorge 2026! Since its inception in 2021, this festival has grown in leaps and bounds, impressively filling the void left by the beloved Paradiso Festival. Each year, attendees have experienced remarkable improvements, and there’s much to be excited about for this year’s event.
Exciting Lineup Changes
One of the biggest updates leading into this year’s festival is the change in the lineup. REZZ, a standout from both the 2021 and 2024 editions, will not be performing this time around. Unfortunately, she had to cancel the remainder of her tour due to ongoing health issues exacerbated by the stresses of touring. As fans, we genuinely feel for her and sincerely wish her the best as she takes the necessary time to recuperate.
However, there’s no need to fret! Zeds Dead, one of the true titans of the EDM scene, will step in to fill REZZ’s spot. Known for their energetic performances and masterful blending of genres, Zeds Dead is more than capable of delivering an unforgettable experience for festival-goers. Their last performance at Beyond PNW 2022 left attendees buzzing, and this addition surely raises the excitement levels for 2026!
Pre-Party Lineup Highlights
For those arriving early, the Friday pre-party promises not to disappoint! Originally slated for a solo set by Seven Lions, attendees will now be treated to the return of Abraxis, which is Seven Lions b2b Dimibo. This collaboration brings a unique flavor to the festival with its psytrance-oriented sounds. Dimibo has taken a bit of a break from the stage lately, making this comeback special for both the artist and fans. Don’t miss this opportunity—it promises to be an unforgettable way to kick off the weekend!
Logistical Improvements
In light of previous concerns regarding Gorge security lines, bittersweet lessons were learned after delays at Griztronics last month. Fortunately, Live Nation has stepped up their game by adding more screening lanes and fine-tuning their check-in process. As a result, wait times have significantly improved, returning to their usual and manageable expectancy, ensuring fans can get into the festival without a hitch.
Tickets & Important Info
For those still looking to join in on the festivities, last-minute tickets are available here. The festival is set to unfold on Saturday, June 28 and Sunday, June 29. Keep in mind that the Friday pre-party on June 26 will require a separate ticket, and camping at the Gorge campgrounds necessitates a separate camping pass.
With a captivating lineup, enhanced security measures, and a spirit of anticipation swirling through the air, it’s clear that Beyond Wonderland PNW 2026 is shaping up to be an exceptional festival experience!
