Theo Parrish, Shanti Celeste and more to perform at Arc’teryx Alpine Academy 2026

Arc’teryx Alpine Academy is returning to the mountains of Chamonix-Mont-Blanc for its 15th edition next month, boasting a four-day spread of free music and educational experiences.

The annual alpine event is set to take place from July 2 - 5 atop the Chamonix mountains, with a program spanning music, talks, workshops, film screenings, and much more.

The Arc’teryx Music Series also returns to this year’s edition, promising three nights of dance music programming which is also free to experience.

Topping the bill this year is Detroit legend Theo Parrish, who will perform alongside the likes of Shanti Celeste, Alfa Mist, Effy, Spill Tab, RONI, Claire O’Brien, Dylan Dylan, ninafterdark, and Katu.

Arc’teryx Alpine Academy will take place throughout Chamonix’s luscious Parc Couttet, with the Alpine Village expected to welcome thousands across the weekend.

While it flaunts a stacked music programme, there will also be athlete-led workshops and panel discussions with Arc’teryx sportspeople on offer, with some even taking to the decks for a night dubbed Arc’teryx Soundsystem.

Arc’teryx Alpine Academy features two prominent stages, including the Main Stage, where a range of film screenings, headline music shows and “spotlight talks” will be hosted throughout the weekend.

Elsewhere, Club Café will host more “intimate” experiences focused on outdoor culture and stories, playing host to conversations, workshops, and panel discussions.

New Arc’teryx products will also be up for grabs at The Gear Library, offering loans of jackets, backpacks and more, while The ReBIRDTM Service Center will dish out free gear repairs and “expert care advice”.

Meanwhile, The Bouldering Wall will task attendees with climbing challenges and community bouldering sessions over the course of four days.
