Meltdown Festival 2026: Harry Styles, Warpaint and Kamasi Washington Lead Southbank Centre’s 75th Anniversary Run
Meltdown Festival 2026 is not doing the lazy celebrity-curator thing. Harry Styles has lined up a Southbank Centre run that swings from Warpaint and Kamasi Washington to Yussef Dayes, Mulatu Astatke and James Murphy, which is a much better use of his clout than a tidy little branding exercise. Taking over the Southbank Centre in […]
Main Square Festival 2026: Katy Perry, Orelsan and Twenty One Pilots Lead Arras Lineup
Main Square Festival 2026 is the kind of lineup that makes a lot of other July weekends look underfed.

All Together Now 2026: Pulp, Kneecap, Disclosure and Underworld Lead the Lineup
Seven chapters in, and All Together Now is still making the rest of Ireland’s festival scene look ordinary. The Curraghmore Estate lineup for July 30 to August 2, 2026 is headlined by Pulp, Kneecap, Disclosure (DJ set), and Underworld — and that’s before you get to the 60-plus acts filling the other 17 stages across […]
Head In The Clouds 2026: KATSEYE, XG and Rich Brian Headline 10th Anniversary Lineup
Head In The Clouds is not a festival that needs to explain itself. For a decade now, 88rising’s flagship event has been the clearest proof that Asian-led music is not a niche – it’s a cultural force. The 10th edition lands at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California, on Saturday, August 8, 2026, and the […]
Darker Waves 2026: Morrissey, The Smashing Pumpkins and Simple Minds Lead Oceanfront Lineup
Look at this lineup and try not to feel something. Darker Waves is back, and after a two-year hiatus since its 2023 debut on the sand of Huntington Beach, the oceanfront post-punk and new wave festival is returning on Saturday, November 14, 2026 with a bill that reads like somebody raided your cool older sibling’s […]

CMA Fest 2026: Blake Shelton, Luke Bryan and Tim McGraw Lead Nashville’s Biggest Country Lineup
Stop scrolling through half-baked announcement posts. CMA Fest 2026 just dropped its full lineup and it reads like someone handed Nashville’s entire A-list a four-day backstage pass.

Vans Warped Tour Mexico City 2026: Papa Roach, Jimmy Eat World and Simple Plan Lead Full Lineup
Vans Warped Tour Mexico City is back with a 2026 lineup that looks like it was assembled by someone who survived the golden age of parking-lot punk, never emotionally recovered, and decided that was actually a strength. The official Mexico City poster for September 12-13, 2026 throws Papa Roach, The All-American Rejects, Jimmy Eat World, […]
Lollapalooza 2026: Charli XCX, Tate McRae and Lorde Lead Chicago’s Massive Lineup
Lollapalooza did not ease into 2026. It kicked the door off with a poster that throws Charli XCX, Tate McRae, Lorde, Olivia Dean, John Summit, Jennie, The Smashing Pumpkins and The xx into giant type across the top and then keeps going like it has somewhere to be. For a festival that already treats overload […]
