Sublime Me Gusta Festival is growing fast. Organizers have announced two additional dates for the inaugural 2026 run of the new multi-city festival, with stops now set for June 27 in Portland, Oregon, and July 18 in Salt Lake City, Utah, alongside the previously announced debut in Fort Worth, Texas, on May 9.
The festival is built around the sound, spirit, and cultural legacy of Sublime, blending reggae, punk rock, hip hop, and alternative energy across two stages. Each stop features a lineup curated to reflect the musical crossroads that have always defined the band’s influence.
The Portland date will take place at Tom McCall Waterfront Park and feature Sublime, Cypress Hill, The Interrupters, Long Beach Dub All Stars, Codefendants, DIZZYISDEAD, and more on the main stage. The SVN/BVRNT Stage will include performances from Jakobs Castle featuring Jakob Nowell, Strange Case, and additional artists.
The Salt Lake City stop lands at Zions Bank Stadium with a lineup led by Sublime, Slightly Stoopid, Pennywise, Long Beach Dub All Stars, The Ataris, Codefendants, and more. Jakobs Castle, featuring Jakob Nowell, Strange Case, and more, will also perform on the SVN/BVRNT Stage.
As previously announced, the festival will debut May 9 at Panther Island Pavilion in Fort Worth, Texas, with Sublime joined by Slightly Stoopid, Iration, Long Beach Dub Allstars, The Ataris, Codefendants, and H.R. of Bad Brains on the main stage, plus additional sets on the SVN/BVRNT Stage.
Tickets for Sublime Me Gusta Festival start at $89.99 for general admission and are on sale now through MeGustaFest.com.
The Fort Worth and Portland events will also include a craft beer tasting add-on for guests 21 and older. For $15.99, attendees can sample local, regional, and national craft beer, hard seltzer, and cider from noon to 3 p.m.
The festival takes its name from the iconic lyric “Me gusta mi reggae, me gusta punk rock” from Sublime’s “Caress Me Down,” and that pretty much tells the whole story. This is a festival built to celebrate the collision of styles that made Sublime matter in the first place. Expect full-day events with live music, local vendors, food, drinks, art, and exclusive Sublime experiences.
The announcement arrives during a huge stretch for Sublime. The band is set to celebrate the 30th anniversary of their self-titled 1996 album with two sold-out nights at Red Rocks on April 17 and 18, while also preparing for the release of their upcoming album Till The Sun Explodes in 2026. Their single “Ensenada” also made major noise with a seven-week run at number one on Billboard’s Alternative Airplay chart in 2025.
