Manila’s electronic music calendar is about to peak as &FRIENDS Festival 2026 returns for a massive two-night celebration on 19 and 20 June at Okada Manila — bringing together global heavyweights and a strong wave of Filipino talent across three stages.
Positioned as one of the Philippines’ premier EDM events, this year’s edition goes all in: over 60 artists, international headliners, and a lineup that spotlights the growing influence of Filipino acts on the global stage.
Leading the charge are some of electronic music’s biggest names. Galantis, Porter Robinson, Yellow Claw, and Subtronics headline the festival, joined by newly announced acts including Adventure Club and Alan Shirahama.
Night 1 will see Porter Robinson return to Manila fresh off his SMILE! :D tour, alongside bass titan Subtronics. On Night 2, Galantis and Yellow Claw close out the weekend with their hit-stacked, high-energy sets.
Adventure Club — making their Philippines debut — adds melodic dubstep firepower to the bill, while Alan Shirahama brings a unique cross-cultural presence as both a J-pop leader and globally recognised DJ.
Beyond the headliners, this year’s festival puts a clear spotlight on Filipino and Filipino diaspora artists. Names like Ian Asher, Seduza, and Tye Turner join the bill, representing a new generation making waves internationally.
They’re joined by local and regional acts including Marc Marasigan, L.A, Ace Ramos, Afinity, Ami Mura, Arthur Tan, FAZAD, and NGHTSHIFT b2b Jaidee b2b Dreamdriver — rounding out a Main Stage that blends global scale with homegrown energy.

The Main Stage is just the beginning. The Club Stage dives deeper into underground sounds, featuring acts like Bandit, BENCH, Honey Gee, and James Landino b2b Kino, delivering late-night sets for dedicated ravers.
Meanwhile, the newly introduced Friendship Stage brings a community-driven angle, with collectives like Orange Juice Asia x Planet Workshop, Hidden Nights, and Midnight Rebels curating takeover sets that highlight Asia’s evolving EDM scene.
