All Things Go Festival is heading back to Forest Hills Stadium this fall with one of its biggest New York lineups yet.
The festival announced the full roster for its third New York edition today, with headliners including Zara Larsson, Brandi Carlile, MUNA, Lola Young, and Carly Rae Jepsen. Larsson’s appearance marks her first-ever headline festival set.
Set across three days on Sept. 25, 26, and 27, the festival continues its tradition of mixing major pop acts with rising artists and internet favorites. The 2026 lineup features names like The Beaches, Rebecca Black, Cara Delevingne, CMAT, Jensen McRae, Hemlocke Springs, and Sienna Spiro. Comedian and musician Meg Stalter joins the lineup as one of the festival’s more unexpected additions.
Returning artist Lola Young teased her comeback in a statement, saying, “All Things Go, we have unfinished business. I feel blessed and ready to take it to the next level. Thank you for having me back.”
MUNA, longtime festival favorites, shared their excitement about returning to New York for a headlining slot, calling All Things Go “one of our favorite festivals to play” and joking, “let’s go, lesbians!”
Over the last few years, All Things Go has built a reputation for its fan-focused atmosphere and strong sense of inclusivity. Fans online have affectionately nicknamed the festival “Gay-chella,” “All Things Gay,” and “Lesbopalooza,” reflecting the event’s large LGBTQ+ fanbase and welcoming community vibe.
Tickets go on sale with a fan presale beginning Wednesday, May 20 at 10 a.m. ET, followed by the public onsale Thursday, May 21. Single-day tickets start at $99, with three-day passes starting at $225. More information here.
The New York announcement follows a busy stretch for the festival brand.

Meanwhile, the Toronto edition is set for June 6 and 7 at RBC Amphitheatre with headliners including Lorde, Kesha, Wet Leg, and The Beaches.

All Things Go Toronto 2026 Reveals Daily Schedule Ahead of June Festival Weekend
All Things Go Toronto 2026 has officially shared the daily schedule for its 2026 edition, giving fans a closer look at how the weekend at RBC Amphitheatre will unfold on June 6 and 7.
The festival, which expanded into Toronto in 2025 after building a strong following in the United States, is bringing a lineup packed with indie pop, alternative, and rising Canadian talent. Doors for both days open at 2:00 p.m.
Saturday’s lineup is headlined by Kesha, who closes out the night with a set running from 9:30 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. Before that, hometown favourites The Beaches will take over the stage from 7:30 p.m. to 8:45 p.m. The day will also feature performances from Rachel Chinouriri, Holly Humberstone, Sofia Camara, and Bella Kay.
Sunday shifts into a more indie-rock-heavy close with Lorde headlining from 9:30 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. The lead-up includes a stacked evening featuring Wet Leg and Del Water Gap. Earlier in the day, fans can catch sets from Jade LeMac, MOMMA, and Flower Face.
The schedule reveal arrives after months of anticipation surrounding the festival’s Toronto return. Lorde’s appearance comes during a major stretch for the singer following renewed live activity and growing excitement around her next era, while Kesha continues her recent comeback run that has leaned into a more independent and celebratory direction onstage.
With set times now locked in, fans can officially start planning their festival weekend, whether that means camping out for barricade spots, bouncing between artists, or preparing for what could easily become one of Toronto’s biggest music weekends of the summer.
