Wrote the meanest, funniest pop of the late 2000s in a plain London accent, then came back with a divorce record that gives away more than most artists ever would.

Lolla's German weekend in the Olympiapark: Lorde, Lewis Capaldi and Anitta over a bill that swings from Ayliva's German pop to a techno-heavy Perry's.
Lollapalooza Berlin 2026 has already wrapped, but you can still dig through the lineup and find the acts you would have loved.
Name a few bands you love and we'll scout all 41 acts on the Lollapalooza Berlin bill for the ones you shouldn't miss.
Lollapalooza Berlin 2026 moved to high summer, July 18 and 19 at the Olympiastadion and the park around it, after years of September editions. The top row read like European festival radio: Pitbull, Ayliva, Lily Allen and Zara Larsson carried Saturday, with Lorde, Lewis Capaldi, Teddy Swims and Anitta on Sunday, and Allen's set billed as a West End Girl show.
German pop and rap carried the middle of the bill. Ayliva headlined in her own language, Zartmann and Makko brought their breakout year to the Olympiapark, and the Berliner Kneipenchor, the city's pub choir, sang on both days. The dance wing was serious too, with Boys Noize at home alongside Artbat, Victor Ruiz, Funk Tribu and Korolova. Atarashii Gakko! supplied the Tokyo chaos, and a karaoke stage with a live band ran all weekend. The 2027 edition is already set for July 17 and 18.
Expect pop, hip-hop, alt-pop and melodic-techno across 41 acts.
Search it, filter by day, stage or genre.

Alt-popFunk-pop
Four Tokyo performers in school uniforms doing chaotic, precisely choreographed pop that refuses to sit still, equal parts idol group, dance troupe, and controlled demolition.

Alt-popElectronic
Berlin songwriter who turned 'Tau mich auf' into an inescapable German pop moment, singing about romantic wreckage in plain language.

Alex Ridha's brand of electro is abrasive by design: hardware-driven, distorted, and consistently ahead of whatever is fashionable, two decades running.

Bogotá-born, Berlin-based producer whose "Phonky Tribu" pulled phonk cowbell and swung, distorted low end into a hard, trance-tinted club tempo.
