Dekmantel Selectors 2026: the electronic music festival at The Garden Resort, Croatia
Summer extension of Amsterdam's iconic Dekmantel festival, Dekmantel Selectors has been taking place for several years at The Garden Resort, on the Croatian Adriatic coast. This intimate edition gathers 26 artists over four days, from August 20 to 24, 2026, in a preserved natural setting conducive to musical discoveries. The relaxed atmosphere and reduced format encourage extended sessions and encounters between artists and festival-goers.
The 2026 lineup cultivates Dekmantel's characteristic eclecticism, blending house, techno and experimental electro. Among the headliners: Karen Nyame KG, Alex Kassian, BadSista and Benji B.
The festival explores a wide spectrum of current electronic sounds, from deep house to breakbeat via ambient dub and acid jazz. Sets stretch until dawn, between beach and forest, with particular attention paid to organic sonorities and hypnotic rhythms.
From August 20 to 24, 2026, The Garden Resort becomes the rallying point for lovers of cutting-edge electronic music in Croatia. Check the full lineup and book your stay.
