BTS
The group that made K-pop a global default setting, back together after military service and still drilled to the millisecond.

About iHeartRadio Music Festival 2026
The iHeartRadio Music Festival is an arena show rather than a field, and that is the point: two nights at T-Mobile Arena, one stage, fifteen acts who would otherwise never share a bill. The sixteenth edition runs September 18 and 19, hosted by Ryan Seacrest and streamed in full on Disney+ and Hulu.
Friday is BTS, Cardi B, Kenny Chesney, Weezer, Goo Goo Dolls and Zara Larsson. Saturday is Muse, Snoop Dogg, The Smashing Pumpkins, Major Lazer, Benson Boone, Ciara, Lainey Wilson, LE SSERAFIM and a special performance from Stella Lefty. The format rewards the collaborations and one-off covers that only happen when a K-pop group, a country stadium act and a nineties alt-rock band are backstage at the same time.
Expect pop, alt-rock, k-pop and hip-hop across 15 acts.

Cardi B
Bronx rap delivered at full volume with the comic timing of someone who was very funny online first.
Paranoid space-opera rock at maximum scale — riffs, falsetto and conspiracy concept albums built for the biggest possible stage.
Snoop Dogg
Thirty years of West Coast rap delivered in the least hurried voice in music.
Washington-raised singer whose piano ballads went enormous with "Beautiful Things," delivered live with backflips off the drum riser.
Ciara
Crunk&B and choreography, from 'Goodies' onward, and still one of the sharpest dancers to front a pop show.
'Iris' at sunset on the beach — you already know you're singing it, along with more '90s radio staples than you remembered they owned.
Kenny Chesney
Stadium country built on beaches and last summers, and a live following that treats each tour as a reunion.
Bell-bottoms, Louisiana drawl and a run of CMA hardware — the hardest-working woman in mainstream country right now, with the catalog to back the swagger.
LE SSERAFIM
K-pop with the choreography sharpened to a point and a sound that keeps drifting toward club music.
Diplo's dancehall-electronic party machine — pure festival serotonin, 'Lean On' and a dozen more global smashes in one set.
Stella Lefty
Chicago's alt-rock monument — Mellon Collie-scale guitars at home in Grant Park, Corgan drama at full wingspan.
Rivers Cuomo's long-running power-pop institution, still balancing crunching guitars against sweetly miserable melodies — three decades of hooks and sweaters.
Swedish pop machinery at its shiniest — 'Lush Life' to main-character bangers, delivered with total command.
The headliners
Muse — Paranoid space-opera rock at maximum scale — riffs, falsetto and conspiracy concept albums built for the biggest possible stage. A band that has been playing arenas so long they design for them.
Up-and-comers to catch early
Benson Boone — Piano ballads and backflips, in roughly equal measure.
Other acts worth planning around
The Smashing Pumpkins — Billy Corgan's catalogue, still loud.
