ARC Music Festival 2026 has quickly become one of the most important events in dance music.

Launched in 2021 in Chicago, the festival was built as a celebration of the city’s house music legacy and has grown into one of the marquee events on Labor Day Weekend.

It is a house and techno festival rooted in the birthplace of the culture itself.

We wanted to see which agencies were behind this year’s ARC lineup, so we used Booking Agent Info’s music industry directory to research the agencies that booked the artists on the bill.

THE·TEAM came out on top with 18%, repping names like Mochakk, Josh Baker, Prospa, and others.

Right behind them was CAA at 17%, with artists like Mau P, WhoMadeWho, Ben Sterling, and more. That means those two agencies alone accounted for 35% of the lineup.

UTA accounted for 7%, booking Luke Dean, Max Dean, Hiroko Yamamura, and others.

Liaison Agency held 6% with acts like Honey Dijon, Paco Osuna, Nicole Moudaber, and more.

WME had 5%, booking artists such as Michael Bibi, Vintage Culture, and Chase & Status.

Spin Artist Agency came in at 4% with Laurence Guy, MEDUZA, KOROLOVA, Genesi, and others.

Paramount Artists had 3% with Adrian Mills, Bad Boombox, and Mischluft.

The Bullitt Agency and Analog Agency, Select Culture each with 2%.

Bullitt Agency booked KASIA, and Très Mortimer.

Analog Agency booked BAUGRUPPE90, Sidney Charles, and Nico Moreno.

Select Culture booked KinAhau, Marsolo, and Luuk van Dijik.

The remaining 36% was split across a wide range of other agencies and artists handling bookings in-house.
