Why Austin Psych Fest 2026 Is a Can't-Miss Event

Now in its 18th year, Austin Psych Fest (often tied to the broader LEVITATION legacy) brings together global psych, garage, and experimental acts for a genre-blending experience. Highlights include:

• Friday, May 8: The Flaming Lips headline with their signature sensory overload—balloons, confetti, and psychedelic anthems like "Do You Realize??" and "Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots."

• Saturday, May 9: The Black Angels deliver a full-album performance of Passover (2006), a landmark psych-rock record, joined by heavy hitters like Ty Segall and Melody’s Echo Chamber.

• Sunday, May 10: Thee Sacred Souls close things out with their retro-soul grooves, backed by acts like Money Chicha and Holy Wave for a funky, sun-soaked finale.

  
  

The lineup spans indie classics, psych rippers, and emerging talents, making it ideal for fans of Tame Impala-style experimentation, garage revival, and soul revival.
