John Summit’s Experts Only Festival Set to Take Over NYC

Dance music fans, get ready — New York City is about to get the festival it’s been waiting for. On September 20 & 21, global DJ and producer John Summit brings his brand-new Experts Only Festival to Randall’s Island Park, marking what’s set to become the largest dance music event in the city’s history.

Summit has rapidly emerged as one of the most exciting talents in electronic music today. Known for his infectious house anthems and festival-smashing tracks, he has become a mainstay to clubs and festivals. His hits are not only chart-topping on streaming platforms, but have also become instant dance floor classics, earning himself a reputation as a producer who knows exactly how to move a crowd.

Curated and headlined by Summit himself, the two-day festival arrives at the peak of his international rise. Known for his high-energy sets and nonstop touring schedule, Summit will play two headlining performances, making sure both nights hit with maximum impact.

The lineup is stacked with names that speak to the breadth of today’s electronic scene. Fans can expect a massive Kaskade B2B Cassian set, the legendary Green Velvet B2B Layton Giordani, and house star LP Giobbi. Rising favorites like AYYBO will bring the groove, while tastemakers such as Pete Tong, Kasablanca, DJ Seinfeld, and Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs (TEED) round out a roster that blends icons with innovators.

With New York lacking a true marquee dance festival in recent years, Experts Only is stepping up to fill that space — and doing it in a big way. Between the lineup, the setting at Randall’s Island Park, and the energy John Summit always brings, this one is shaping up to be a historic weekend for the city’s dance community.
