John Summit is set to launch the Experts Only Festival NYC, a highly anticipated two-day event taking place on September 20 and 21 at Randall’s Island. Partnering with Medium Rare, Relentless Beats, and EMW, the festival aims to establish itself as the largest dance music gathering in the city, with organizers expecting an impressive turnout of 50,000 fans.
Randall’s Island has previously hosted renowned events like Electric Zoo and Governors Ball, and it promises to be transformed for this festival with innovative stage designs, curated food and beverage selections, and engaging brand activations. Summit has personally curated a lineup that includes over 15 artists, showcasing a mix of established stars and emerging talents across two stages. Notable names include John Summit performing two headline sets, alongside Kaskade b2b Cassian, Green Velvet b2b Layton Giordani, and LP Giobbi, among others.
This festival marks a significant return for Summit to New York City following his sold-out headline show at Madison Square Garden, which sold out within three minutes. Recognized as “the Gen Z cultural moment of the year,” the festival highlights Summit’s genre-blending musical approach.
Tickets will be available for sale starting Friday, July 11, with pre-sale access at 10 am EST and general sales commencing at noon. Pricing varies with general admission tickets starting at $119.99, VIP tickets at $299.99, and Platinum admission at $799.99, all without additional fees.

Experts Only Festival NYC is poised to be a landmark event that fuses cutting-edge music with immersive experiences, all led by one of the most dynamic figures in dance music today. The festival not only promises an unforgettable weekend for attendees but also reinforces New York City’s vital role in the global dance music scene.
