FESTIVAL GROUNDS

The festival grounds have been refined year after year, evolving through careful adjustments to support the needs of each edition. In 2026, Glitch marks a decade of activity and returns to its home at Gianpula Village with eight stages, some of which have been subtly reworked and improved, alongside the introduction of a new stage for this anniversary edition. The site brings these spaces together to form a balanced environment and atmosphere that define the Glitch experience.

THE FORTRESS

The largest stage at the festival, The Fortress is a dominant structure that has evolved steadily over time. Its design combines contemporary elements with a powerful visual identity. For 2026, the stage has been subtly refined to better align with the energy and atmosphere of Glitch.

ORBIT STAGE

Orbit is defined by its unique, multi-tiered structure, shaped around several stepped levels and distinctive split-level dance-floor pit that places the audience on a gradual incline. This layout brings the crowd closer to the performers, creating a sense of enclosure where artists are surrounded by the dance floor and directly connected to the energy of the space.

COSMIC STAGE

The Cosmic stage offers a contrasting setting within the festival grounds. Tucked amid trees, this stage creates a secluded atmosphere distinct from the rest of the festival grounds. Darkness and light define the environment, allowing the programming to move freely without fixed boundaries.

CAPSULE STAGE

Capsule introduces a new identity while retaining the physical layout of the space. The stage uses a compact, circular structure that places the DJ within the crowd, with people positioned both on and around the stage at close range. From acid, electro, techno to house, as always, we like to shake things up a little here when curating the line-up, ensuring delightful surprises that resonate with the unparalleled energy of the crowd.

THE CAVE

The ancient cave, with a history spanning hundreds of years, provides an ideal backdrop for performances that delve into deeper and more atmospheric techno & electro realms. The distinctive ambiance of this location is surreal, capable of transporting visitors to a bygone era and immersing them in a world reminiscent of times past.

JÄGER

ROOFTOP

From pool parties to tear jerking italo-disco moments, the Rooftop has always brought proceedings to a euphoric end. This year more artists have been confirmed to take control of our beloved Rooftop for more good times!

MIDNITE STAGE

Race with the stars at the Midnite Stage. Following its debut in 2022, our friends from Midnite will be taking over this stage once again, hosting an array of talent from different corners of the electronic spectrum. Expect bright fast energy.

INTERCELL

Intercell return to Glitch with a dedicated stage in a new, larger space, expanding the festival grounds further. Their approach centres on direct, high-intensity programming, closely aligned with Glitch’s core sound and ethos. The stage runs across both days with a consistent, tightly curated lineup.
