XPoNential Music Festival 2026 announced its lineup for the 33rd annual event taking place September 18 – 20 at Wiggins Park Riverstage in Camden, New Jersey. Hosted by WXPN, the three-day fest will feature performances by headliners Dawes, Little Feat and Portugal. The Man.

“There’s been a certain magic to the XPoNential Music Festival—the way artists and fans have come together on the Camden waterfront for more than two decades,” said Roger LaMay, WXPN General Manager. “It’s become a true annual gathering for our community, and this lineup really captures that mix of connection and discovery.”

The 2026 XPoNential lineup also includes St. Paul and The Broken Bones, Rebirth Brass Band, Devon Gilfillian, Madison Cunningham, Sierra Hull, The Budos Band, Langhorne Slim, Ratboys, Leif Vollebekk, S.G. Goodman, Te Vista, Grace Gardner, Fat Mezz, Tyler Ballgame, Couch, Zoe Lemon, Mackenzie Johnson and Daniel Villarreal.

The lineup also features Cyril Neville Plays The Dead, the veteran New Orleans’ musician’s tribute to the music of the Grateful Dead.

“We’re also planning more touring later this year and even a project where we reinterpret Grateful Dead music, which ties back to when the Neville Brothers toured with them,” Cyril Neville recently told JamBase. “It will be a tribute to the days of the Neville Brothers and the Grateful Dead traveling together, which changed everything for us. Once we started doing those shows with them guys, I mean, everything in our lives had changed.”
