All Things Go Festival today announced new dates for its Toronto 2026 edition, moving to summer dates June 6th and 7th at its iconic downtown waterfront venue RBC Amphitheatre (formerly Budweiser Stage).

Expect another lineup true to All Things Go’s core identity, highlighting female and LGBTQ+ artists; the lineup will be revealed soon. The inaugural 2025 festival featured iconic sets from Reneé Rapp, Kacey Musgraves, Role Model, Charlotte Cardin, and many more… Head here to read our review of Day 1 and 2 of the the 2025 edition.

All Things Go will once again partner with Live Nation Women to deliver the best possible festival experience for fans. 

All Things Go 2026 editions in the DC area at Merriweather Post Pavilion and New York’s Forest Hills Stadium will return this year, with more information to come soon.

Late last year, All Things Go proudly released the benefit compilation All Things Go: 10 Years, with 100% of the proceeds going to their longtime collaborators at The Ally Coalition (TAC), a leading nonprofit dedicated to supporting LGBTQ+ youth, founded by Jack and Rachel Antonoff. The track, “Jesus and John Wayne,” a poignant collaboration between googly eyes, Joy Oladokun, and August Ponthier, was named one of the best songs in 2025 by NPR. The compilation featured a diverse lineup of special original songs and collaborations from artists in the All Things Go community, such as Kesha, Hudson Mohawke, Maren Morris (prod. Jack Antonoff), Rachel Chinouriri, Bartees Strangem etc.

Governors Ball 2026 Release Daily Schedules

Published

on

The set times are in. Governors Ball Music Festival just dropped its daily schedules for June 5–7, and the usual game begins: mapping your day, picking your battles, and accepting you can’t see everything.

Friday, June 5

Day one leans indie-pop into rap by night. Lorde closes the main stage at 8:30, opposite the tail end of Baby Keem(7:30–8:30). That’s your first big call: polished pop spectacle or Keem’s high-energy set.

Earlier, things get messy in a good way. KATSEYE (6:35–7:30) overlaps with Pierce the Veil (5:30–6:30) bleed, and The Beths (6:00–7:00) sit right in between. Indie fans will feel that pinch.

Midday conflicts are lighter, but The Dare (4:00–4:45) vs. Arcy Drive (3:30–4:15) creates a small fork in the road.

If you’re pacing yourself, the cleanest run is late afternoon into Mariah the Scientist (4:45–5:30), then pick your lane.

Saturday, June 6

Saturday is the most chaotic on paper. Stray Kids headline at 8:30, directly after Kali Uchis (7:30–8:30). That transition is smooth if you stay put.

The real trouble hits earlier. Major Lazer (6:30–7:30) collides with Blood Orange (5:30–6:30) and the start of Amyl and the Sniffers (7:30–8:30). Dancehall vs. alt-R&B vs. punk. Pick a mood and commit.

Mid-card is stacked with clashes: Ravyn Lenae (4:00–4:45) overlaps with Jane Remover (3:30–4:15), and Snow Strippers (4:45–5:30) runs right into Wet Leg (4:45–5:30). That last one is a true coin flip, two buzzy acts at the exact same time.

Sunday, June 7

Sunday might be the strongest day top to bottom. A$AP Rocky closes at 8:45, opposite the end of JENNIE (7:45–8:45) and Freddie Gibbs & The Alchemist (7:45–8:45). That’s the toughest final hour of the weekend.

The lead-up is just as tight. Dominic Fike (6:45–7:45) overlaps with Clipse (5:45–6:45) and Hot Mulligan (6:15–7:15). Three different crowds, same window.
Earlier, Japanese Breakfast (4:00–4:45) and Holly Humberstone (3:15–4:00) form a nice back-to-back if you stay mobile, but Between Friends (2:30–3:15) cuts into that flow.

The takeaway

Friday is manageable. Saturday is conflict-heavy. Sunday is stacked late.
If you hate missing songs, plan short splits. If you want full sets, accept you’ll miss something big. That’s part of the deal, and honestly, half the fun.

PNE Summer Night Concerts Announce 2026 Lineup

Published

PNE Summer Night Concerts 2026

Vancouver’s summer concert calendar is locking into place. The annual Summer Night Concerts are set to return to the Pacific National Exhibition from August 22 through September 7, bringing live music back to one of the city’s biggest seasonal events.

This year carries a bit more weight than usual. The series will debut at the brand-new Freedom Mobile Arch, a 10,000-seat outdoor amphitheatre built for large-scale performances. The venue promises better sightlines, improved sound, and a more immersive setup for fans. It’s a major shift for the fair, which spent much of last year dealing with construction that limited its footprint and contributed to a drop in attendance.

Now, with the full site back in action, organizers are aiming for a reset. The 2026 lineup leans into that idea, mixing legacy acts with newer names across genres like rock, pop, hip-hop, and electronic.

Headliners include Blue Rodeo, The Guess Who, The Beaches, Nelly, and Zedd, alongside artists like Mt. Joy, Train, and Barenaked Ladies. Special performances include Cynthia Erivo backed by the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra, as well as appearances from Punjabi Virsa, Weird Al Yankovic, Earth, Wind & Fire, Pierce the Veil, Sarah McLachlan, and Boy George & Culture Club.

The full schedule runs nightly:

  • Aug. 22: Blue Rodeo
  • Aug. 23: The Guess Who
  • Aug. 25: The Beaches
  • Aug. 26: Nelly
  • Aug. 27: Zedd
  • Aug. 28: Mt. Joy
  • Aug. 29: Cynthia Erivo with VSO
  • Aug. 30: Punjabi Virsa
  • Sept. 1: Train
  • Sept. 2: Barenaked Ladies
  • Sept. 3: Weird Al Yankovic
  • Sept. 4: Earth, Wind & Fire
  • Sept. 5: Pierce the Veil
  • Sept. 6: Sarah McLachlan
  • Sept. 7: Boy George & Culture Club

Tickets start at $49 plus fees and include admission to the PNE Fair. Presale began April 19, with general on-sale launching April 20 through TicketLeader.

New venue, full fairgrounds, and a lineup that leans both nostalgic and current. After a quieter year, the PNE looks ready to feel busy again.
