Lollapalooza Berlin Announces 2026 Lineup with Lily Allen, Lorde and Pitbull
The first names for Lollapalooza Berlin 2026 are here, and the festival is once again leaning into a big mix of pop, indie, and radio-heavy acts for its return to the German capital next summer.
Set to take place July 18 and 19 at Olympic Park Berlin, the festival has confirmed early lineup names including Pitbull, Lorde, Lewis Capaldi, Zara Larsson, Teddy Swims, Lily Allen, and Berlin-born artist Zartmann.
Since launching in Berlin in 2015 and relocating from Tempelhofer Feld to Olympic Park in 2018, the festival has grown into one of the city’s biggest annual music events. Its lineups have often balanced international chart-toppers with European acts and rising local talent, and this year looks no different.
One of the more talked-about additions is Lily Allen, who is expected to bring material from her recent album West End Girl to the stage. The record has drawn attention for its personal songwriting and references to her split from David Harbour. Meanwhile, Lorde’s inclusion marks another major European festival appearance for the New Zealand singer as fans continue waiting for details on her next era.
Zartmann’s booking adds a hometown connection to the lineup. The Alt-Hohenschönhausen artist has become one of Germany’s fastest-rising alternative pop names over the last few years and is likely to draw a strong local crowd.
As always with festival announcements, reactions online have been mixed. Some fans are excited by the accessible, mainstream-heavy direction, while others are already hoping future lineup additions lean further into alternative and underground acts. More artists are expected to be announced in the coming months.
Tickets for the festival are on sale now, with around 60,000 attendees expected across the weekend. Find out more information about the festival on their website.
