Oceans Calling Festival has announced the full artist lineup for its 2026 event, returning to Ocean City, Md. this year for its fourth annual presentation. From Sept. 25-27, the scenic summer send-off will call an eclectic mix of alt-rock, jam, indie-pop, reggae and more to the Ocean City Boardwalk for a weekend of aughts nostalgia. Brought to life by a partnership with Rockville, Md.’s own roots-rock innovators O.A.R., this year’s festival will feature 40 acts, led by headliners Dave Matthews Band, Mumford & Sons and Twenty One Pilots.

On Friday, Sept. 25, Dave Matthews Band will return to Oceans Calling or their second headline set at the event, following sunny sets from icons like Ludacris, O.A.R, Liz Phair and the four-decade genre-bending jam favorites Hootie & The Blowfish. The loaded lineup will also include performances by Yellowcard, Shaggy, Everlast, Gavin DeGraw, Better Than Ezra, Sons of Legion, KT Tunstall, Shwayze, King Stingray, and Linka Moja.

Twenty One Pilots will lead the day 2 lineup with Goo Goo Dolls, Third Eye Blind, All-Time Low, returning favorites 311 and Gwen Stefani, hot off her Sphere residency with No Doubt. Before grunge and emo heavy hitters like the Violent Femmes, Dashboard Confessional and Everclear and R&B singer-songwriter Corinne Bailey Rae, Dishwalla, Goldford and Cassandra Coleman will take the stage as opening acts, bringing some new blood to the trip down memory lane.

Come Sunday, Mumford & Sons will close out the festival with the continuing celebration of their new studio album, Prizefighter. Prior to a penultimate set from Matchbox 20, My Morning Jacket, CAAMP, The Head & The Heart and Hanson will focus the final day on Americana and its outcroppings. Jet, OK GO, Susanna Hoffs, Cory Wong, Fastball and Nat Myers will fill out the program, along with a special O.A.R. and Friends set from the host band.

Presale for this year’s festival will begin this Thursday, March 5 at 10 a.m. ET. Remaining passes will then be released in a general on-sale at 11 a.m. ET on the same day. For tickets and more information, visit oceanscallingfestival.com.
