Escape Halloween Set Times: Cloonee, Zedd and the Clashes

Three days out, the official Escape Halloween 2026 set times are up, and they settle the big question: who closes. Cloonee shuts down The Big Top on Friday, Oct. 30. Zedd does it on Saturday, Oct. 31.

They also guarantee some painful choices. Both nights, the strongest stretch on several stages lands after midnight, on top of each other.

The basics: NOS Events Center, 689 S. E St., San Bernardino. Festival hours are 4 PM to 2 AM both nights, and the official site lists an afterparty from 2 to 6 AM. It's 18+ (21+ for alcohol and VIP), and you'll need a photo ID. Costume check: the official guide bans glass or ceramic masks and full-face makeup that makes you unrecognizable from your ID. All times below are as listed on the official site; anything from 12:00 on is after midnight.

### Friday's must-plan moments

Get there by 7. MORTEN plays The Big Top at 7:00, and he arrives with the hottest record on 1001Tracklists' trending chart. MORTEN – Gimme Dat [Future Rave] is No. 1 on 1001Tracklists' trending chart this morning, and it has been No. 1 on nine of the last 10 mornings in our snapshots. KREAM follows him at 8:00, so expect at least one of them to reach for MORTEN & KREAM – Serotonin [Liquid : Lab], No. 4 on this week's 1001Tracklists weekly DJ chart with 79 DJs. The catch: DJ Tennis opens his Cage set at 7:00 too.

10 PM: main stage or Capriati? Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike take The Big Top at 10:15. One to listen for: Dimitri Vegas is on the No. 1 track on the weekly DJ chart, Dimitri Vegas, Bountyhunter, BRANDON – Woops, with 92 DJs. Over in The Cage, Joseph Capriati goes B2B with Sosa for two hours from 10:00. Our library has Capriati's Control with GENNARO, No. 11 on our weekly board, and It's Time with Cloonee.

The big one: 12:45 AM. Cloonee closes The Big Top from 12:45 to 2:00, while Jamie Jones B2B Franky Rizardo has The Cage from midnight to 2:00. Cloonee's Sybil, Cloonee, Prospa – Free Your Mind [CircoLoco Records] is No. 7 on our weekly board and No. 20 on the weekly DJ chart with 42 DJs. One route: start in The Cage at midnight, then make the walk for Cloonee. Bass fans have their own late call, with Excision closing Sewer District from 1:00.

### Saturday's must-plan moments

Techno royalty, back to back. Richie Hawtin (8:00) hands The Cage straight to Nina Kraviz (9:30). For a Hawtin deep cut, our library has Robotman, Richie Hawtin, Marshall Jefferson – Do Da Doo (DJ Minx Extended Remix).

9 PM: Alok or Kraviz? Alok has The Big Top from 9:00 to 10:10, overlapping the first 40 minutes of Kraviz's set. His ALOK & DJ Glen & ICARUZ – Weekend Warriors is No. 15 on trending this morning. AC Slater is also on at Feeding Grounds from 9:30.

Halloween's house hour. Disco Lines plays The Big Top from 11:25 to 12:40, the same stretch as San Pacho at Feeding Grounds (11:00–12:30). San Pacho fans should know After Midnight, Matroda, San Pacho – Slinging Dope.

The final 90 minutes. This is the hardest call of the weekend. Zedd closes The Big Top (12:45–2:00), OMNOM closes Feeding Grounds (12:30–2:00), and 999999999 closes The Cage (12:30–2:00). OMNOM's new SIDEPIECE & OMNOM & Taylr Renee – When We're Dancing [Lip Service] just entered the weekly DJ chart at No. 32 with 34 DJs.

And if you want the rap break, Too $hort (11:45) and Ja Rule (12:15) run back to back in Sewer District. Here's how they landed on the bill.

Why it matters

It's a huge bill: seven stages a night, running from 4 PM to 2 AM. The set times show where it gets crowded: the late slots on both nights put house, techno and the main stage in direct competition. Pick your closers now. Then come back to identify what you heard.
