Four Chord Music Festival Confirms 2026 Line Up

Four Chord Music Festival is officially back, and bigger than ever. Returning to Pittsburgh proper for the first time in several years, Four Chord Music Festival will take over F.N.B. Stadium, the home of the Pittsburgh Riverhounds, on September 25th and 26th. The festival will be delivering a stacked, genre-spanning lineup that reflects the full spectrum of modern punk and alternative music. Four Chord Music Festival continues to evolve without losing the community-driven spirit that made it a destination event. This year’s edition brings together a dynamic mix of post-hardcore, punk, emo, and alternative standouts, uniting influential acts and rising voices across two packed days. Four Chord Music Festival highlights the breadth of today’s punk and alternative landscape, spanning styles, sounds, and generations. Tickets for the 2026 Four Chord Music Festival are now on sale here

“I just love the city of Pittsburgh. It possesses a resilience and a charm that matches the people who live here. My love for punk rock started at the very location where we are bringing the festival back; my first ever Warped Tour was in this very space, and bringing it back is a full-circle moment. F.N.B. Stadium is a beautiful location near the confluence of Pittsburgh’s 3 downtown rivers, offering one of the most picturesque concert experiences. We wanted to expand the festival’s reach by offering a day of bands that have never played Four Chord before, while still staying true to what helped the festival grow. I think the heavier bands coming to the festival provide a nuance we have never had before. Additionally, the Saturday lineup brings out all of the pop-punk and adjacent genres in new and familiar ways that our patrons love. I am confident there is a band for everyone at this year’s festival, and we can’t wait for everyone to see what our amazing city offers. See you in the pit.” (festival founder Rishi Bahl)
