Making Time ∞ has announced its 2026 lineup, with Bicep, Daphni, Kim Gordon, Skee Mask, Theo Parrish and more set for the Philadelphia festival. The event is scheduled for Sept. 18-20 at Fort Mifflin, bringing more than 120 producers and live acts to the historic site.
The announcement places Bicep at the center of the news. The group’s appearance at Making Time ∞ will be their only 2026 show in the Americas, giving the Philadelphia weekend a clear point of distinction on next year’s festival calendar.
Beyond that exclusive booking, the lineup points to the wide-ranging identity Making Time ∞ is presenting for 2026. Daphni, Kim Gordon, Skee Mask and Theo Parrish are among the names confirmed, joining a bill that spans producers and live performers rather than leaning on a single format.
That mix is key to the appeal of this announcement. With more than 120 acts involved, Making Time ∞ is not being framed as a compact showcase or a one-night concert series. It is a full three-day gathering, built around depth as much as headline recognition.
Fort Mifflin will again serve as the setting. The Philadelphia location gives the event a defined sense of place, and the 2026 edition is already being positioned around the combination of a large-scale lineup and a specific local site. For a festival announcement, that matters: the venue is not just a backdrop, but part of how the weekend is being presented.
The confirmed names also suggest a lineup designed for listeners who move between club-focused production, live performance and more experimental edges. The festival’s use of both “producers” and “live acts” in describing the bill leaves room for different modes of presentation across the weekend.
For Philadelphia, the announcement adds a major music date to the 2026 calendar. Sept. 18-20 now belongs to Making Time ∞, with the festival drawing attention not only for the size of its bill, but for the specificity of its bookings. Bicep’s Americas-only 2026 appearance is the kind of detail that can define a festival edition before set times, stages or other particulars are even part of the conversation.
The inclusion of artists such as Daphni, Kim Gordon, Skee Mask and Theo Parrish gives the lineup additional weight, indicating that the festival is looking beyond a narrow lane. Rather than presenting a bill centered solely on one sound or one type of performer, Making Time ∞ 2026 is being introduced as a broad program for fans who follow both producer-driven music and live work.
At this stage, the essentials are clear: Making Time ∞ 2026 will run for three days in Philadelphia, feature more than 120 producers and live acts, and include Bicep’s only Americas performance of the year. Tickets are on sale now.
