Lorde, Turnstile, Blood Orange and More Descend on the Arizona Desert for FORM at Arcosanti This October

FORM is back at Arcosanti in the Arizona desert October 9 to 11, and the 2026 edition may be the most tightly curated lineup the festival has ever assembled. Lorde, Turnstile, Blood Orange, Kamasi Washington, Adrianne Lenker, Geese, and Disclosure headline a bill capped at just 2,500 attendees, with no overlapping sets and very limited final tickets on sale now. All Tier 1 and Tier 2 tickets sold out instantly when the festival was first announced in March.

The draws here go beyond the headliners. FORM 2026 marks one of Lorde’s smallest performances ever, Adrianne Lenker’s only solo show of 2026, and features genre-bending experimental sets from James K, Underscores, avant-garde producer Dylan Brady, and noise rock outfit YHWH Nailgun. The ambient Envelop Stage runs all weekend with performances from Christopher Willits, Tycho, and more. This year FORM also partners with Spotify to present a dedicated Fresh Finds stage, with the lineup curated jointly between FORM and Spotify.

Founded in 2014 by Zach Tetreault as a release party for his band Hundred Waters, FORM has quietly grown into one of the most distinctive festival experiences in North America, hosting major talent including Florence + The Machine and Anderson .Paak while keeping its capacity and curatorial focus deliberately small. Wellness programming and guided hikes are coordinated on-site by USAL.

Tickets are expected to move fast.
