Miami’s esteemed music, arts, and culture festival, III Points, has unveiled officially its highly anticipated Phase II lineup for the 2026 edition. This final wave of talent solidifies the festival’s boldest year yet, completing the genre-defying framework that has made it a staple of the international festival circuit.
The festival returns for its 13th edition at Mana Wynwood on Friday, Oct. 16, and Saturday, Oct. 17, introducing increased square footage, 10-plus stages, immersive art installations, flooring improvements to the Isotropic Stage, and the debut of an enhanced VIP-plus experience.
The premium tier offers a completely new way to experience III Points, granting access to the exclusive Artist Lounge behind the Mind Melt stage. VIP-plus attendees will enjoy unlimited natural wine pours before sunset at the Grapecrush Wine Garden, alongside access to all traditional VIP amenities and priority reservations for sit-down meals on-site from some of Miami’s finest culinary staples, including Ghee, Tam Tam, and Fooq’s (with reservations opening officially once set times are released).
“Phase II completes the vision we set out for 2026,” said III Points founder David Sinopoli. “We wanted to drop a final wave of talent that feels both nostalgic and completely futuristic, bridging the gap between underground club culture and global live acts. This completes the circuit for our 13th year.”
Joining previously announced heavyweights such as Underworld, Four Tet, Lil’ Kim, and PAWSA, the Phase II announcement presents a massive surge of talent into the 2026 lineup. Newly added headliners and key acts include Charlotte de Witte, Honey Dijon, Floating Points, Flying Lotus, Blood Orange, and Seth Troxler. It also deepens III Points’ commitment to live alternative programming, welcoming GZA performing Liquid Swords, Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, and Danny Brown to the multi-stage layout, alongside a heavily curated roster of Miami-based artists.
This year also marks the highly anticipated return of ::444::, III Points’ audiophile-focused stage experience presented in partnership with Apple Music and L-Acoustics. Located inside the festival’s signature black room warehouse, the stage is designed for intentional listening, pairing extended four-hour sets with an immersive 11.1 surround sound system powered by L-Acoustics DJ spatial audio technology.
The performances, room sound, and selected audience moments are captured through strategically placed microphones, then mixed in spatial audio with Dolby Atmos support so fans can revisit the experience after the festival.
III Points has solidified its place as a cultural cornerstone of Miami’s music and arts scene, renowned for its boundary-pushing curation and forward-thinking experiences. Since its founding in 2013, it has served as a critical launchpad for emerging talent and a haven for underground icons, consistently attracting global acts that embrace experimentation.
Its home in Wynwood, Miami’s creative epicenter, perfectly reflects the festival’s vibrant, progressive, and unapologetically bold ethos. With this 13th edition, III Points continues to redefine the modern festival experience, seamlessly blurring the lines between genres, scenes, and sensory discovery.
