You need not worry about the fear of an unlucky 13th edition of III Points Musical Festival<\/a>. The annual gathering at\u00a0Mana Wynwood<\/a>, which brings together the biggest names in international, national, and local touring musicians, will return in 2026 on Friday, October 16, and Saturday, October 17. III Points<\/a> announced in a press release yesterday that attendees can expect an even bigger III Points, \u201cfeaturing 10+ stages and an expanded festival footprint. This year\u2019s updates include increased overall square footage, an enhanced VIP experience, and improvements to the Isotropic stage<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n

Those interested can already purchase \u201cProphet Passes (lowest-priced tickets) available now at\u00a0iiipoints.com<\/a>\u00a0with just a $0.01 deposit; pass holders receive access to an exclusive t-shirt available at checkout.\u201d<\/p>\n

The two-day general admission tickets end up being $209, while you\u2019ll need to double up for VIP two-day passes at $425. They call them Prophet Passes because you\u2019ll have to buy them blind with faith that you\u2019ll enjoy the line-up when they eventually announce it, but you probably won\u2019t have to wait too long to know who\u2019s on the bill. 2025\u2019s III Points was held on the same mid-October weekend, and they made their phase 1 lineup announcement on April 22. Among the musicians announced in that Phase 1 lineup last year were South Korean DJ producer Peggy Gou, hardcore punk act Turnstile, dancehall pop star Sean Paul, singer-songwriter Mk.gee, British tech-house producer\u00a0Michael Bibi, and Nicol\u00e1s Jaar and Dave Harrington\u2019s side project\u00a0Darkside. Previous III Points headliners have included everyone from Spanish flamenco-pop star Rosal\u00eda<\/a> to French electronic duo Justice<\/a> to American garage rockers the Strokes.<\/p>\n

While prognosticators like to have fun guessing festival line-ups by looking at who is playing festivals at the same time of year. III Point\u2019s October dates make that tougher as it\u2019s a vacant time of year for music festivals. Last year, however, Turnstile did play early October\u2019s Aftershock Festival in Sacramento before making the cross-country trek to III Points. While Aftershock is a rock-centric fest and III Points leans more on the artier sides of pop, electronic, and hip-hop<\/a>, there are some potential acts I could see fitting in with III Points, with My Chemical Romance, Tool, Queens of the Stone Age, and III Points veterans Wu-Tang Clan playing Aftershock.\u00a0Austin City Limits also takes place in early October and features Sabrina Carpenter, Wet Leg, Doechii, and Rainbow Kitten Surprise, all of whom have an III Points vibe.<\/p>\n

But these are all wild guesses. For official announcements, we\u2019ll have to be patient.<\/p>\n
