Global Dance Festival is the longest-running electronic music event in Colorado, and after a hiatus it returns September 11 and 12, 2026 on the new LVC festival grounds at the National Western Center, with Tiësto and Kygo at the top of a lineup that runs deep into bass and house.
Subtronics, Chris Lake, Slander, Svdden Death and TroyBoi fill out a two-day bill of more than two dozen acts. Each day runs 4 p.m. to midnight on an indoor and outdoor site built for large crowds.
