Latino music event La Onda Festival will return to Napa for its third year, with ticket presale beginning at noon Friday, organizers announced Tuesday.
The festival is scheduled for May 30 and 31 at the Napa Valley Expo fairgrounds in downtown Napa, one weekend after BottleRock Napa Valley, its sister event.
Festivalgoers may sign up to receive a presale code by text message, allowing access to tickets at the lowest available price.
“Once the lineup is announced, ticket (prices) will increase,” Tom Fuller, one of the festival organizers, said Tuesday.
The lineup will be revealed Feb. 11. Organizers surveyed subscribers by email last December to gather input on artists fans would like to see at the 2026 festival. Those who sign up for the presale code “will also get the lineup first once it is announced.”

La Onda Festival was first held in Napa in 2024 and has since brought a mix of established and emerging Spanish-language artists to Northern California’s Latino community. Performers in previous years have included Maná, Alejandro Fernández, Marco Antonio Solís, Carin Leon, Fuerza Regida, Junior H, Café Tacvba, and notables like Xavi and Eden Muñoz.
Organizers said the festival has drawn more than 100,000 attendees since its launch.
The 2026 edition will feature artists across genres, including Mexican regional music, reggaeton, rock, hip-hop, Latin pop and salsa.
In addition to live music, the festival has become known for showcasing Latino restaurants and wineries, as well as hosting Lucha Libre shows throughout the Napa Valley Expo grounds.
