Breakaway Music Festival has a hometown, and Columbus knows it. The nationally touring electronic and dance festival returns to its roots for Breakaway Ohio on May 29 and 30 at the Historic Crew Stadium Festival Grounds, headlined by Kygo, GRiZ, Rezz, and Disco Lines across a stacked two-night run.
The full lineup stretches well beyond the headliners. Twenty national touring acts, including D.O.D, Lilly Palmer, Mersiv, Devault, and Hayla, share the bill alongside four Ohio-based artists: 2ŁØT, Stoney, Tano, and VryBad. That local commitment has been part of Breakaway’s identity since the beginning, and it shows in how the festival programs each year.
Co-Founder Zach Ruben put it plainly: “Columbus is where Breakaway began 13 years ago, and it’s still at the core of who we are.” That grounding in community gives the festival a genuine energy that bigger, more anonymous events rarely replicate. The lineup this year earns that legacy.
Breakaway Ohio lands as the fifth stop on a record-setting 2026 national tour spanning 14 cities, with new markets Houston and Salt Lake City added to the roster. CELSIUS returns as presenting sponsor for a third straight year, bringing activations and complimentary sampling across the weekend. Jimmy John’s presents the Silent Disco, with additional partners including BeatBox, Fumi x Cloud Nurdz, Hiyo, and NOYZ.
Tickets are on sale now at BreakawayFestival.com, with GA, VIP, Ultimate VIP, and Space Deck Terrace packages available.
