EXIT has revealed the first lineup for the inaugural edition of Starlight Festival, its new multi-day event taking place near the Great Pyramids of Giza from October 8th through 11th, 2026.
Developed in partnership with Venture Lifestyle and its electronic music platform P+US, the festival marks EXIT’s first event in Egypt. While the opening and closing celebrations will be held across Cairo on October 8th and 11th, the main festival program will unfold on October 9th and 10th against the backdrop of the pyramids.
Leading the first wave are Charlotte de Witte, who will make her first-ever performance in the country, Michael Bibi, Adriatique, Vintage Culture, Pete Tong, WhoMadeWho (Hybrid DJ Set), and Enrico Sangiuliano. The lineup also features Awen, Coco & Breezy, Deer Jade, Fiona Kraft, Floyd Lavine, Layla Benitez, Olympe, Paolo Ferrara, Dish Dash, Moti, Rolbac, Tebra, and more than 30 regional artists, with additional names still to be announced.
Beyond the music, Starlight will feature more than five stages and zones, alongside a large-scale VR experience first introduced at Expo Dubai. The festival will be staged from a specially designated site near the Great Pyramids of Giza, respecting the historic landmark while using it as the event’s backdrop.
