PHOENIX — A star-studded lineup is stepping up to the plate to perform at the three-day 2026 Innings Festival in Tempe, officials announced Tuesday.
Mumford & Sons, Twenty One Pilots and Blink-182 are on deck as headliners for the festival, which will be held from Feb. 20 to Feb. 22.
A celebration of both music and baseball, as it is held alongside spring training, the Innings Festival has become an event Valley music fans have marked on their calendars since it was first held in 2018.
The festival originated as a three-day event, but was scaled back in 2019 to just two days and had remained a two-day event. But that will change next year.
A second weekend, dubbed the Extra Innings Festival, was added in 2024 and is scheduled to be held the weekend after next year’s Innings Festival (Feb. 27-28).
The concert lineup for the Extra Innings Festival has not been announced.
