With opening weekend approaching, Innings Festival 2026 is warming up for its biggest swing yet, and Tempe is about to feel it.
Back at Tempe Beach Park & Arts Park, the fan-favorite festival stretches out across two weekends and five total days this month, proving once again that Arizona knows how to mix guitars, gloves, and a little spring-training swagger. Bigger lineups, broader genres, and the beloved no-overlap schedule put this year firmly in can’t-miss territory.
Weekend one, February 20–22, marks the festival’s first-ever three-day run, and it comes loaded. Blink-182, Twenty One Pilots, and Mumford & Sons headline a deep lineup that also brings Cage The Elephant, Sublime, Lord Huron, Goo Goo Dolls, Myles Smith, Public Enemy, Dashboard Confessional, Big Boi, OK Go, and more than 25 artists across three stages. It’s a throwback-meets-right-now mix built for singing, jumping, and staying put all weekend.
Weekend two, February 27–28, hands the mic to Extra Innings Festival and leans hard into country and crossover hits. Luke Bryan, Kane Brown, Dierks Bentley, and Hardy lead the charge, backed by Jessie Murph, Brothers Osborne, Shaboozey, Muscadine Bloodline, Bret Michaels, 49 Winchester, and Drew Holcomb & The Neighbors.
Music isn’t the only thing getting airtime. Both weekends keep the festival’s baseball soul front and center with interactive activations and appearances by Major League Baseball legends including Torii Hunter, Brandon Crawford, Jason Kipnis, Jake Peavy, Darryl Strawberry, and Jermaine Dye. Off the Mound with Ryan Dempster also returns, delivering live interviews and surprise performances that tend to blur the line between concert and clubhouse hang.
Ticket options range from General Admission to full Platinum treatment, with upgrades unlocking bucket seating near the Home Plate Stage, shaded lounges, on-field viewing, complimentary drinks, all-day dining, and even Tempe Town Lake boat rides. Whether fans show up for one day or both weekends, Innings makes it easy to play the experience exactly how you want.
