Florida's bass weekend just got its marching orders.
Insomniac and Bassrush announced the full Forbidden Kingdom 2027 lineup on November 9. The ninth edition runs Friday, April 23 to Sunday, April 25, 2027 at the Central Florida Fairgrounds in Orlando, with more than 100 artists across five stages.
Excision leads the bill, because of course he does. ATLiens, Crankdat, Wooli, Ray Volpe, Cyclops and YDG sit right under him, and the undercard runs deep: SVDDEN DEATH, ALLEYCVT, Zeds Dead, Adventure Club and Black Tiger Sex Machine are all on the poster.
“Orlando is quietly becoming Florida's bass capital.”

FIVE STAGES OF FIRE, FURY AND BASS
The five stages carry the fantasy theme all the way down: the Forbidden Realm, the Dragon's Lair, the Mystic Garden, the Crystal Spire and the Cursed Ruins. Dragons, castles and the heaviest low end in Florida, all in one fairground.
Passes are on sale now: three day GA, GA+ and 18 plus VIP, and the layaway opens with a $10 deposit. That deposit number is how a lot of Orlando ends up at this thing.
Orlando is quietly becoming Florida's bass capital. EDC Orlando owns Tinker Field in November, and now Forbidden Kingdom plants the flag in April. Miami gets the headlines, but Central Florida is building a real calendar.
