Newport Folk Festival announces 2026 dates

Newport Folk Festival is back July 24–26 at Fort Adams State Park in Newport, RI, and ticket sales are officially set. Tickets go on sale Wednesday, February 4 at 1 PM ET via DICE, and they typically sell out fast, so be ready when the queue opens.

As in recent years, Newport Folk won’t announce a full lineup in advance, opting for gradual reveals and plenty of surprise guests along the way. Last year’s fest featured sets from Bleachers, Waxahatchee, MJ Lenderman, S.G. Goodman, Matt Berninger, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Geese, Goose, Alex G, Remi Wolf, Jessica Pratt, Kim Deal, Iron & Wine, The Lemonheads, and more.
