The iHeartRadio Music Festival returns to T-Mobile Arena for two nights, September 18 and 19, 2026, packing a year of chart-toppers into one weekend. Hosted by Ryan Seacrest, the festival is built on back-to-back headline sets rather than a single marquee act, with career-spanning hits, surprise collaborations and moments that only happen in this room. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. with music starting at 7:30 p.m. both nights, and every performance streams live on Disney+ and Hulu.
Friday, September 18: BTS, Cardi B, Goo Goo Dolls, Kenny Chesney, Weezer and Zara Larsson.
Saturday, September 19: Benson Boone, Ciara, Lainey Wilson, LE SSERAFIM, Major Lazer, Muse, Snoop Dogg, The Smashing Pumpkins, and a special performance by Stella Lefty.
The billing runs from K-pop and country to hip-hop, dance and 90s alternative rock, so one ticket covers ground most tours never touch. T-Mobile Arena's sound system and video walls keep the sets feeling close from the floor to the upper bowl, and fast changeovers keep the energy up between artists. Lineup is subject to change.
Performers
BTS
BTS is the seven-member South Korean group that turned K-pop into a global phenomenon, blending hip-hop, pop and R&B with lyrics about mental health, self-love and coming of age. Their stadium shows are built on precision choreography, massive production and one of the most devoted fanbases in music.
Cardi B
Cardi B is a Grammy-winning rapper known for chart-topping hits like "Bodak Yellow" and "WAP," blending fierce lyricism with bold, unapologetic charisma. A true cultural phenomenon, she brings unmatched energy and star power to every performance.
Goo Goo Dolls
Goo Goo Dolls are the Buffalo rock band behind "Iris," "Slide" and "Name" — three of the most inescapable songs of the late 90s. Four decades in, John Rzeznik and Robby Takac still deliver them with the arena-sized hooks intact.
Kenny Chesney
Kenny Chesney is one of country music's biggest live draws, with 30 million albums sold and a beach-flavored catalog that turned island escapism into a genre of its own. His fans call themselves No Shoes Nation, and they show up in stadium numbers.
Weezer
Weezer is a beloved alternative rock band known for blending crunchy guitars with irresistibly catchy hooks and a distinctly nerdy charm. Rising to fame in the 90s with hits like "Buddy Holly" and "Say It Ain't So," they've remained a dynamic live act across decades of genre-bending reinvention.
Zara Larsson
Zara Larsson is a Swedish pop singer who has been performing since childhood and charting globally since her teens, with hits including "Lush Life," "Never Forget You" and "Symphony." Her sets are bright, dance-forward pop delivered with a genuinely big voice.

Ciara
Ciara is an American singer, songwriter and dancer who broke out in 2004 with the crunk&B smash "Goodies" and never stopped moving. Known as much for her dancing as her voice, she brings a choreography-driven show built on two decades of hits.
Lainey Wilson
Lainey Wilson is a chart-topping country star known for her "Bell Bottom Country" sound and CMA Entertainer of the Year win. Also recognized for her role in "Yellowstone," she brings powerhouse vocals and undeniable star power to the stage.
LE SSERAFIM
LE SSERAFIM is a five-member South Korean girl group under Source Music and Hybe, known for a confident, self-possessed sound and razor-sharp choreography. Hits like "Antifragile" and "Easy" made them one of K-pop's defining fourth-generation acts.
Major Lazer
Major Lazer is the Diplo-founded electronic collective that pushed dancehall, moombahton and soca into global pop, most famously with the billion-stream hit "Lean On." Their sets are relentless, party-first affairs built for a crowd on its feet.
Muse
Muse are the English trio behind some of the most theatrical rock of the last two decades, mixing prog ambition, falsetto vocals and dystopian themes on songs like "Uprising" and "Knights of Cydonia." Their arena shows are famously oversized in every direction.
Snoop Dogg
Snoop Dogg is an iconic American rapper and entertainer, a pioneer of West Coast hip-hop and G-funk known for his smooth flow and laid-back charisma. Active since 1991, he's also a successful actor, producer, and media personality with decades of cultural influence.
The Smashing Pumpkins
The Smashing Pumpkins are a legendary alternative rock band from Chicago, known for blending heavy guitars with dreamy melodies on classics like "Siamese Dream" and "Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness." Led by Billy Corgan, they remain a must-see act for fans of 90s rock.
