iHeartRadio Music Festival 2026: What Happened and What's Next

The 2026 iHeartRadio Music Festival has played. It ran Friday, September 18 and Saturday, September 19, 2026 at T-Mobile Arena, hosted by Ryan Seacrest, with a different bill each night: BTS, Cardi B, Goo Goo Dolls, Kenny Chesney, Weezer and Zara Larsson on Friday; Benson Boone, Ciara, Lainey Wilson, LE SSERAFIM, Major Lazer, Muse, Snoop Dogg, The Smashing Pumpkins and Stella Lefty on Saturday. Kenny Chesney opened night one with "Beer in Mexico", his first time back on this festival's stage in over a decade, and BTS closed it with a four-song set built around their new album ARIRANG. Tickets are no longer on sale.

The 2027 edition hasn't been announced. The festival has taken over a September weekend in Las Vegas every year since 2011 except 2020, when the pandemic edition was staged virtually (2026 was the 16th edition), and the lineup and on-sale usually arrive months ahead of the weekend, not weeks. When it comes back, know what the format buys you: radio-showcase sets, short and hits-only with fast changeovers and host segments in between, which is either an efficient genre-spanning sampler or a frustrating tease depending on your temperament. In a 20,000-seat room the cheap seats also watch a very good radio broadcast from very far away.

Looking for a big arena night now? The concert calendar lists what's actually on sale, and the current residencies cover the headliners who play here for weeks at a time.

Insider tipThis festival announces its lineup months ahead and puts tickets on sale right behind it, so there's no early-bird trick to play now. For a comparable arena night before then, the concert calendar on this site shows what is actually on sale.

Frequently asked questions

Is the iHeartRadio Music Festival still on?

The 2026 festival played September 18-19 at T-Mobile Arena and is over. The next edition hasn't been announced; the event has run on a September weekend in Las Vegas every year since 2011.

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 Stella Lefty, all hosted by Ryan Seacrest.

When will 2027 tickets go on sale?

Nothing is posted yet. Lineup and on-sale dates for this festival land months before the September weekend, and once they do this page will carry them.

What are the sets like?

Radio-showcase format: short hits-only sets with quick changeovers and host segments, so you sample six to nine acts a night rather than getting anyone's full show. It's the festival's feature and its complaint, depending on who you ask.
