Meow Wolf Grapevine is turning its immersive art world into a dancefloor this spring. The venue has officially announced Meow Wolf DJ FEST (feat. Pandemonium), a one-night electronic music festival set to take over The Real Unreal exhibition on May 22, 2026.

The event marks the first music festival of its kind hosted at Meow Wolf Grapevine, transforming the multi-dimensional art experience into a multi-stage electronic music environment for a night of sound, movement, and immersive visuals.

Doors open at 8:00 p.m., with DJs performing throughout the exhibition’s many rooms, creating different sonic environments across the venue. Guests will be able to explore the installation freely while moving between stages, encountering everything from bass-heavy dubstep sets to high-energy house music performances inside the surreal environments that define Meow Wolf.

The experience will also include access to Prime Materia, Meow Wolf’s award-winning bar, giving attendees a chance to grab drinks before diving back into the labyrinth of music and art.

A Showcase of Dallas Electronic Talent

The lineup for Meow Wolf DJ FEST highlights the depth of North Texas’ electronic music scene, featuring artists from the Dallas collective Pandemonium alongside a wide range of local selectors.

The full lineup includes:

634, Aaron Lance, Adventus, Basic Benny, DJ Brian Pibb, Gela, Jason Hill, Jeff Fuhreal, Jess Baroness, Lvbel A, Kazmix, MC NRG, Nizmo, Shari|fresh, Say Less, Susie Otto, Shawn Padilla, So I’m That One Guy, The Wookologist & Valentino.

Each artist brings their own perspective across house, bass, techno, and experimental sounds, creating a genre-spanning soundtrack for the night.

“This event puts Dallas talent at the center of something entirely new for The Real Unreal,” said Jamie Weaver-Garia, General Manager of Meow Wolf Grapevine.

“Our DJ FEST opens up the entire exhibition for artists and guests to move together through music, art, and discovery.”

Expanding Meow Wolf’s Dancefloor Energy

The festival announcement comes as Meow Wolf Grapevine continues experimenting with music-driven programming inside its immersive spaces. Just last week, the venue hosted a Techno Yoga session during its Adultiverse programming, blending movement, music, and art in a unique wellness-meets-dance experience inside the exhibition.

Events like these highlight how The Real Unreal is evolving beyond a traditional art installation into a platform for creative nightlife and community-driven experiences.
