Following a standout debut in 2025, Higher Love Festival returns to the sun-soaked shores of Malta for its second edition with a heavyweight Phase 1 lineup for 2026. Running from 29 April to 4 May, the festival once again takes over multiple stunning locations across the island and mixes up world-class electronic music with sunrise-to-starlight dancing, glistening coastlines, next level food and a like-minded crowd.

Curated by Sammy Porter alongside the team behind leading promoters LoveJuice, Higher Love is an all-encompassing European festival experience – think pool parties under blazing sun, open-air shows by the sea, boat parties with beats rolling across the water and secret afterparties that stretch long into the night. 

Phase 1 lineup highlights include fresh tech house from new school tastemakers such as Josh Baker, Prospa, Eliza Rose, Fleur Shore, Girls Don’t Sync, Kolter, Lee Foss, Sidney Charles, Riordan, Wheats, Julian Fijma, Paige Tomlinson, Obskür and a special live show from Oden & Fatzo with five headliners still to be revealed in Phase 2.

The week closes in style with an unmissable Closing Party at Boat Club, Café Del Mar, featuring G Chase, Harty, Mazos, Mike Younger, O’Neil McDowall and Sonny Kane.

Higher Love also brings a stacked schedule of stage takeovers from cutting-edge brands including 23 Degrees, After Caposile, Appetite, Binary, Boat Club, Creche, Club Roto, Groovin, Indigenous, INLV, Lab 54, LoveJuice, Modern Funktion, Secret Sessions and WYLD who will all bring their own flavours and add to a diverse, forward-thinking soundtrack across the island.

This weekend escape is a perfect way to kick off the 2026 festival season in a gorgeous setting with an already essential line up, and more is to come soon.
