MUTEK Montréal's 2026 edition runs from Tuesday, August 25 to Sunday, August 30, 2026 in downtown Montréal, Canada — six days and nights spanning electronic music, audiovisual art, and digital creativity. Resident Advisor recently published an in-depth feature going inside the festival and interviewing its organizers directly.
Festival positioning and background
According to Resident Advisor's report, MUTEK's organizers say the festival has evolved over the years from a dancefloor-centric event into a platform connecting the dance music world, the tech industry, and academic research communities — a positioning they consider fairly distinctive within the industry.
Founded in 2000, MUTEK Montréal is one of the longest-running electronic music and digital arts festivals in North America, with sister editions in Mexico City, Tokyo, and Barcelona.
