Knock2 closes the weekend Sunday, December 13, bringing a lineup connected to the Niteharts universe. Madeon and Control Freak, both Niteharts 2026 performers, join him, along with Daniel Allan, WINK x nikko, Klo, and BUNS.
The festival runs December 11-13 at Palisades Tahoe in Olympic Valley, California, at 6,200 feet in the Sierra Nevada. It’s a single-stage setup with no set conflicts. Last year’s edition expanded to three days and sold out, with fans traveling from 48 states.
