Ukrainian Star Alina Pash Returns to Pohoda
Alina Pash returns to Pohoda 2026. One of the most distinctive voices of today’s European music scene, the Ukrainian multigenre artist will bring her unique fusion of electronic music, hip-hop, experimental sound design, and Ukrainian folk traditions to Trenčín Airport
14. May 2026
Describing her sound as “Mystic Rap Bass Opera,” Alina blends ancient Carpathian vocal techniques, ritual music, bass-heavy electronics, and deeply personal storytelling about identity, war, transformation, and freedom. Her live shows move somewhere between a rave, a performance piece, and a powerful collective ritual.
Alina Pash has performed at festivals including Sziget, Lollapalooza Berlin, Burning Man, and Eurosonic Noorderslag. She is a Forbes Ukraine 30 Under 30 honoree and was featured as a Spotify EQUAL artist. Her viral “Bad Witch” performance at Burning Man 2024 surpassed 26 million views.
At Pohoda, she will also perform tracks from her album Coven Deluxe, featuring collaborations with 25 artists from 13 countries. One of them is Apashe, who will also appear at the 30th edition of Pohoda. Given their acclaimed collaboration, we might even witness a special joint performance on stage.
Pohoda 2026 will feature performances by The Cure, Gorillaz, The Prodigy, Lykke Li, Denzel Curry, IDLES, Oliver Tree, Apashe & Brass Orchestra, Action Bronson, Emilíana Torrini, Baxter Dury, and many more.
The festival is already sold out; only a limited number of 4-day passes remain.
One-day tickets for THE CURE Extra Day are still available.
Pohoda Festival will take place on July 8 & July 9–11, 2026, at Trenčín Airport.
