Ultra Japan is back for 2026 and the first wave of artists has just been announced.
Taking place September 19-20 at Tokyo Odaiba Ultra Park, Ultra Japan 2026 has unveiled its Phase 1 lineup, and it covers a wide range of sounds from across the electronic music spectrum. With more names still to come, this is just the beginning of what is shaping up to be one of the strongest Ultra Japan lineups to date.

The Phase 1 Lineup
The first confirmed names for Ultra Japan 2026 are:
Alesso, The Martinez Brothers, Peggy Gou, Sara Landry, WORSHIP featuring Sub Focus, Dimension, Culture Shock, and 1991, Yousuke Yukimatsu, and Zedd B2B Knock2, with more artists still to be announced.
The bill covers a lot of ground. Zedd B2B Knock2 is one of the most anticipated pairings on the announcement, bringing together two artists whose individual styles complement each other in a way that should make for a genuinely unpredictable set. Peggy Gou adds a credible club music presence to what could easily have been a mainstream-only lineup. Sara Landry continues her rapid rise as one of the most in-demand hard techno names in the world right now, fresh off a confirmed slot at Tomorrowland Belgium 2026. And WORSHIP, the drum and bass supergroup featuring Sub Focus, Dimension, Culture Shock, and 1991, brings a genre that has been making serious inroads at major festivals globally.
Yousuke Yukimatsu represents the local Japanese scene and his inclusion is a strong signal that Ultra Japan continues to respect and platform homegrown talent alongside international headliners.
