Dub Carnival 2026 - Two Nights of Roots & Stepper Dub

The autonomous cultural center LaKuZ proudly presents the 13th edition of Dub Carnival – two heavy nights of Roots and Stepper Dub in the heart of Langenthal.
Since 2012, Dub Carnival has grown into a solid pillar of Langenthal’s Fasnacht. While brass bands fill the streets and bars, LaKuZ becomes a meeting point for sound system culture, welcoming dub lovers from all over Switzerland and beyond. Here, reggae dub vibrations meet curious “Fasnächtler” and everyone looking for an alternative rhythm during carnival time.
Once again, massive sound systems, deep basslines and conscious messages will turn LaKuZ into a place of unity, movement and positive energy.

We are pleased to announce the following acts:
