The heavy sound of underground techno has officially taken root in the Southeast and Atlanta is about to become ground zero for its biggest event yet.

​This Labor Day weekend, Twisted Lines will make history by hosting the city’s first-ever techno festival. Taking over Atlanta Utility Works on September 4th-5th 2026, this massive concept promises to set a new tone for electronic music events in the Peach City.

​The weekend gathering will feature two specially curated stages spread across both indoor and outdoor spaces. Beyond the music, attendees can expect to completely lose themselves in immersive art installations and exclusive merchandise designed for this milestone weekend.

​Twisted Lines dedicates themselves to bridging the gap between local, underground talent and the most dominant international DJs in the techno scene. Their track record speaks for itself, having previously brought titan-level headliners like Basswell, Cloudy, Klangkuenstler, and Sara Landry to the city.
