Kaskade’s Sun Soaked Returns to Huntington Beach With Two Sets and Special B2B With BUNT.
Kaskade and Insomniac are bringing Sun Soaked back to Huntington State Beach on Saturday, September 12, 2026, for another edition of the beachside electronic music festival.
Following its sold-out 2025 return, Sun Soaked will once again take over the sands of Huntington Beach with a lineup featuring Kaskade, Cassian, Matroda, BUNT., D.O.D, Me N Ü, Lavern, Bobby Harvey and Esse.
This year’s event will also feature two performances from Kaskade. In addition to his solo headlining set, Kaskade will join BUNT. for a special back-to-back performance.
Sun Soaked 2026 Brings Kaskade Back to Huntington Beach
The upcoming edition continues the festival’s connection to Southern California and its distinctive oceanfront setting. Originally launched in 2017 in partnership with Insomniac, Sun Soaked combines electronic music with a festival experience set directly along the Pacific coastline.
After returning for a sold-out edition in 2025, the festival will head back to Huntington State Beach this September.
For Kaskade, Sun Soaked has remained a personal project centered around music, community and Southern California beach culture.
“Sun Soaked has always been about bringing people together somewhere that feels different,” Kaskade said in the festival announcement. “There’s something about standing on the beach with the ocean behind you, surrounded by people who love music, that changes the energy completely. Every year it evolves a little bit, but the feeling stays the same. That’s what keeps bringing me back.”
Kaskade Will Perform Two Sets
One of the major additions to Sun Soaked 2026 will be the opportunity to catch Kaskade twice throughout the festival.
Along with his solo headline performance, Kaskade will perform a special B2B set with BUNT., bringing the two artists together following their recent collaboration, “Comes Back Around.”
The track was debuted during Kaskade’s return to Coachella earlier this year and is part of his current ORIGIN // era.
The B2B adds another element to a lineup that spans several areas of contemporary electronic music. Cassian, Matroda, D.O.D, Me N Ü, Lavern, Bobby Harvey and Esse are also scheduled to perform throughout the day.
A Major Year for Kaskade
The return of Sun Soaked comes during an active year for Kaskade.
Earlier this year, he returned to Coachella and closed the Sahara Stage while introducing ORIGIN //, his reimagined live concept. During the performance, he also announced a forthcoming album.
Kaskade has since continued with new music and festival appearances, including the release of “Meet Again” alongside Layton Giordani and Natalie Jane, which was released as the official EDC Las Vegas 2026 anthem.
His 2026 touring schedule has also included appearances at EDC Las Vegas and Electric Forest, with Tomorrowland and additional performances part of his global touring cycle.
The return of his own beachside festival gives Southern California fans another opportunity to catch Kaskade in a setting that has become closely associated with the producer since Sun Soaked’s original launch.
Sun Soaked Continues Its Southern California Run
Since debuting in 2017, Sun Soaked has developed from a beach gathering into a recurring destination event for electronic music fans.
Rather than taking place at a traditional festival venue, the event’s location at Huntington State Beach puts attendees directly on the sand with the Pacific Ocean serving as its backdrop.
Following the festival’s return in 2025, Sun Soaked 2026 continues that concept with another full day of music at Huntington Beach.
With Kaskade performing both a solo set and a B2B with BUNT., alongside performances from Cassian, Matroda, D.O.D, Lavern and more, this year’s edition is set for Saturday, September 12.
