CRSSD Festival Spring ’26 Returns to the Waterfront

CRSSD Festival is back for Spring ’26, and we are ready for another weekend by the bay. FNGRS CRSSD once again takes over Waterfront Park with its signature blend of house, techno, and live electronic acts, all set against one of downtown San Diego’s best backdrops.

Two days, multiple stages, and a lineup that balances global heavyweights with underground favorites – this is the kind of weekend that keeps CRSSD firmly rooted in our local festival culture.

From the moment gates open to the final sets each night, CRSSD Spring ’26 is shaping up to be one of those editions that feels thoughtfully curated from start to finish.

CRSSD Festival spring

The Waterfront Park Experience

There is a reason CRSSD keeps calling Waterfront Park home. The wide-open lawns, skyline views, and bay breeze create a festival environment that feels uniquely San Diego.

It is easy to move between stages, catch partial sets without stress, and settle into a rhythm that works for you. Add CRSSD’s consistently dialed-in sound and production, and the setting becomes part of the draw, not just the backdrop.

Saturday’s Lineup Sets the Tone

Saturday brings a mix of groove-driven house, melodic moments, and harder-edged techno. Polo & Pan, Tycho, and La Roux anchor the live side of the day, while artists like Deborah De Luca, Ida Engberg, Vintage Culture, and Franky Rizardo keep the energy moving as the sun goes down.

With names such as Tokimonsta, Ben Sterling, Clara Cuvé, It’s Murph, and Mita Gami sprinkled throughout, Saturday feels like a full-spectrum CRSSD experience.

Sunday Turns Up the Intensity

Sunday’s lineup leans into peak-time energy with a stacked roster from start to finish. Amelie Lens, Cirez D, The Martinez Brothers, and Dom Dolla headline a day built for big moments and packed dance floors.

Lane 8 and Franc Moody add melodic balance, while acts like Honeyluv, Odd Mob, Shermology, Silva Bumpa, and Pegassi keep things lively across stages. It is the kind of Sunday where pacing yourself becomes part of the plan.

A Staple of San Diego’s Festival Calendar

CRSSD has always been about more than just big names. It is the crowd, the flow of the weekend, and the way the festival fits so naturally into the city. Spring ’26 continues that tradition, offering a weekend that feels polished, social, and very San Diego.

See you there!

We will be bouncing between stages, catching sunset sets, and making the most of another CRSSD weekend by the water. This one is already feeling like a highlight.
