Our Stages

Crab Dreamer (Main Stage)This is where Burning Crab’s heartbeat pounds loudest. As the sun dips, local heroes and international headliners weave together exuberant rhythms, from soulful electronica at dusk to anthemic sets under a canopy of stars. Expect moments of pure collective euphoria; hands in the air, feet in the sand, and a shared pulse that carries you long after the final track fades.
Cosmic TurtleWhen night wraps the beach in velvet darkness, Cosmic Turtle lights up the shore with deep, hypnotic grooves. Ambient soundscapes melt into late-night explorations - live B2B DJ sessions, shimmering techno, and immersive visuals. It’s a cocoon for the curious: surrender to the beat, lose track of time, and emerge reborn with the morning tide.
Planet EggPlanet Egg is our playground of boundary-pushing beats. From mid-afternoon sets that blend funk and future bass to peak-hour electronic journeys, this is a hive of sonic experimentation. Expect colourful light installations, interactive visuals, and a lineup that surprises: your feet won’t stop moving until the ocean breeze takes over.
Mystic Baul & Indigenous RhythmsStep into the stories of Bangladesh at Mystic Baul. Here, centuries-old folk traditions from our land meet modern improvisation as wandering minstrels and soulful singers guide you through heartfelt melodies. By day, it’s a sun-lit sanctuary of acoustic intimacy; by twilight, voices echo like prayers across the sand, each song able to transcend you between past and present. Then, be swept away by the deep, rhythmic chants of the indigenous rhythms like Mro and Rakhaine music, whose songs carry ancestral wisdom in every beat and the performances carry a testament to coastal traditions passed down through generations. Feel the rhythms, which is like a living tapestry of sound that honors the land and its people.

Burning Crab 2026: What’s Coming to the Coast

We return to Cox’s Bazar with the same wild spirit, and this time, with even more heart. The beach will pulse with art and light installations that invite you inside, wellness circles that flow from dawn to dusk, and music that moves your soul. Dive into immersive worlds and handcrafted spaces, each designed for real connection and pure joy. Each stage is brought to life as a walkable night by festival architect Jiro Endo, whose sculptural forms and light installations (seen at Wonderfruit’s Quarry) transform each sound world into a living environment.
