Known for curating a compelling lineup in a unique environment, the Goldrush Music Festival has emerged as an annual standout for electronic music fans.
There is every reason to believe that reputation will stay intact when the festival returns to Rawhide Western Town in Arizona this September.
Presented by Relentless Beats and entitled Goldrush: Midnight Riders, the 2026 iteration will take place September 11 and 12 and again showcase superstar and emerging electronic acts in an unconventional, memorable western aesthetic.
The festival previously announced Alesso, deadmau5, GRiZ, and Martin Garrix as its headliners, and the full daily lineup breaks out as follows.
Friday, September 11: Alesso; Deadmau5; AC Slater; Airrica; Alleycyt; Boogie T; Broken Hill; CID; Dømina; Green Velvet; Kaivon; Midnight Tyrannosaurus; Mitis; Rossy; Sullivan King; Zoey808; Afterparty; Molly Otto; Saleh

A quick glance at the lineup reveals why the festival has become an annual staple and why this year’s show, in particular, is making waves. With household names as headliners and a mix of acclaimed veterans and compelling up-and-comers throughout the card, this is a music-first event that is enhanced, not carried, by the creative setting.
And the music and energy will not be contained to Rawhide Western Town. Goldrush has also confirmed a daytime pool party experience at the nearby Gila River Resorts and Casinos. Running from 11AM-7PM on September 12, the daytime pre-party will feature DJ Pauly D as headliner.
Each night will also feature an official afterparty; lineups will be confirmed soon. Between the main stage performances, pre- and post-parties, and additional side stages and activations, Midnight Riders is shaping to be the perfect forum for electronic fans who want to end the summer of 2026 on a high note.
