Torino, Italy is gearing up for the 12th edition of Kappa FuturFestival, set to deliver an unforgettable weekend for the global electronic music community. This year’s lineup brings together some of the biggest and most influential names in dance music today—including Solomun, Anyma, Mau P, Nico Moreno, Dom Dolla, and many more—promising a high-energy celebration of cutting-edge sound and culture.

Kappa FuturFestival is celebrated not only for its cutting-edge music programming but also for its innovative festival layout and stage designs. This year, the festival expands its footprint to a total to six immersive stages spread across the iconic Italian venue.

The Futur Stage stands as the central hub of Kappa FuturFestival—a focal point of energy, sound, and visual spectacle. As the festival’s main stage, it anchors the experience with a bold lineup that blends heavyweight talent with forward-thinking artistry. Festivalgoers can expect standout performances from acts like Kettama, Pawsa, Dom Dolla, Meduza and a special back-to-back set from Seth Troxler and DJ Tennis.

With a spotlight on techno, The Solar Stage serves as the festival’s go-to destination for some of the most respected and rising names in the global techno scene. This stage will host performances by Adrian Mills b2b BIIA, Bad Boombox, Gandalf, Nico Moreno, Dexphase b2b Skyrption, Lilly Palmer, Patrick Mason, and more.

Towering visuals and cutting-edge production define the Voyager Stage. This iconic stage design is centered around the recognizable sky high towers in Parco Dora, creating a unique and elevating atmosphere for acts like Skream b2b Prospa, East End Dubs, and Anyma b2b Solomun.

Blending music, art, and technology, the Kosmo Stage is its own hideaway in the park. This stage is known for its subtle and minimalist design. Featuring its beloved sign that reads “Dance First Think Later”, attendees can expect to see a curated lineup here including Donato Dozzy, Lena Willikens, Kerri Chandler, and Octo Octa b2b Eris Drew.

The Nova Stage fosters experimentation and collaboration. It brings a unique design to the park grounds and encourages artists to play something different and experiment with their creativity. This stage will offer boundary-pushing performances from Adam Beyer b2b Maceo Plex, Chris Avantgarde, Ben UFO b2b Francesco Del Garda, Adiel b2b Quest, and DJ Stingray 313 b2b Helena Hauff.

The newest addition to the festival is The Lab Stage, built to push boundaries of sound design, live visuals, and immersive energy. At its core is STOOR—an immersive, high-spec techno jam session helmed by Rotterdam’s Speedy J. Artists are invited to step into this dynamic environment and explore the boundaries of improvisation. STOOR will take over the stage on Friday and Saturday, each day featuring a fully improvised six-hour session with performances from names like Fjaak, Surgeon, and Aurora Halal. The stage will close on Sunday with a curated lineup of powerful sets from DVS1 & Traxx, Jane Fitz, and Drums and Chants.
