About Hulaween 2026
Suwannee Hulaween happens under the live oaks and Spanish moss of the Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park: four late-October days built around three nights of The String Cheese Incident as resident hosts. Around them, each night gets its own co-headliner: Excision on Thursday, My Morning Jacket on Friday, Pretty Lights on Saturday and Geese on Sunday, plus a one-off Warren Haynes Incident collision.
No festival splits the jam-and-bass difference quite like it. The improvisers get STS9, EOTO, Lettuce, Karina Rykman, Eggy and The Greyboy Allstars; the electro-soul lane runs the Big Gramatik team-up, Daily Bread, Maddy O'Neal and OPIUO; and a legitimate dance wing (Green Velvet, Ben Böhmer, KETTAMA, Salute, INVT, Tokyo selector ¥ØU$UK€ ¥UK1MAT$U) keeps the campground moving until sunrise.
Expect dance, electronic, bass and jam across 84 acts.

Steller
KARAN!
Dean Turnley

High-velocity festival bass designed for maximum impact in the shortest possible window — Ohio-bred drops engineered like demolition charges.

An organ-guitar-drums supergroup trading in the kind of greasy instrumental interplay that needs no vocalist — jam-world pedigree, pure pocket.

Chicago funk-soul with horns and a frontman working the crowd harder than the setlist requires — party-first, always.
Gentle, wistful progressive house that treats the dancefloor as somewhere to think rather than thrash — melodics in the Lane 8 school.
Heyz
Instrumental flatpicking pushed into jazz and surf territory by a trio with no singer to slow it down — acoustic velocity with a wink.
Gudfella
ASYDEQUEST
Dusty, hip-hop-rooted electro-soul that would sound at home on a boom-bap record if you slowed it down — Atlanta sample-craft in the Pretty Lights lineage.
Melodic techno with actual vocal hooks — built for the moment the lights come up over a field, performed as a live duo rather than a DJ set.

Close Friends Only
Laid-back Alabama five-piece riding breezy, groove-forward indie rock — sun-baked guitars and easy falsetto hooks, Muscle Shoals-region ease in a new generation.
Tini Gessler
Spanish DJ closely tied to the elrow party universe — tech house pitched at confetti-strewn, costumed rooms rather than the back of the club.
Berlin melodic-house romantic — the hot-air-balloon Cercle set guy, whose gorgeous live performances turn synth washes into genuine emotional events.
Trio riding the new melodic-bass wave — riddim with feelings, drops that aim at the chest and the heart at once.
Angus Stone's hazy side project — slacker psych for a very late afternoon, all languid grooves and heavy-lidded charm.
Jackie Hollander
Chicago house royalty with a green-haired alter ego and a catalogue of acid-house hooks that never stopped filling floors — 'La La Land' still detonates.
Young Alabama pickers playing traditional bluegrass fast enough to satisfy a jam crowd — flatpicking chops with festival stamina.

Playlunch

Moonstone Riders
A loose, Dead-devoted side project made entirely for the people who record every set — in-joke as genre, played with real chops.

Hershe
Neon no-wave that turned genuinely poppy without losing any of the nervous energy — DIY-scene veterans reborn as day-glo dance-punk evangelists.

Soul samples and live instrumentation layered into the warm end of the bass-music spectrum — Chicago electro-soul with a jam heart.
