Pinkpop 2027 runs June 18 to 20 at Megaland in Landgraaf, in the far south of the Netherlands. Thirty acts are out so far, each with its day: RAYE tops Friday, Mumford & Sons Saturday and blink-182 Sunday. The festival says more names are coming, and no stages or set times have been published.
The three days already read differently. Friday puts The Prodigy, Bastille, Royal Blood and CHVRCHES behind RAYE. Saturday leans on songwriters, with Sting 3.0, Kacey Musgraves and Foals, and Sunday is the loud one, with Turnstile, Nothing But Thieves, The Neighbourhood and 5 Seconds of Summer ahead of blink-182. Dutch pop and hip-hop run through all three, from Antoon and Froukje to The Opposites and Milolaathetlukken.
Expect pop, rock, alt-rock and alternative across 30 acts.

Britain's Grammy-and-BRIT-sweeping songwriter freed from label limbo, with big-band soul-pop that has real stakes and a live show that earns every award.
Pop-soulR&B
Banjo-driven crescendos that defined a decade of festival folk, now delivered with the electric guitars left plugged in. The singalongs are never optional.
Folk rockIndie folk
San Diego County pop punk, three chords fast and a dick joke between songs, with Travis Barker's drumming doing far more than the format requires.
Rock
Dan Smith's band, whose chanted hook on 'Pompeii' set the template: brooding synth-pop with stadium-sized choruses and a habit of reworking other people's songs on mixtapes.
Alternative
British singer-songwriter whose 'Stargazing' went stratospheric, with folk-pop hooks built to be shouted back.
Singer/songwriter
Brighton duo pulling enormous riffs from just bass and drums, with Mike Kerr's effects-split bass doing the work of a full guitar section.
Alternative
Willem and Big2, the Dutch hip-hop duo behind a long run of rowdy Dutch-language party records that crowds shout back word for word.
Hip-hop
Firestarters, still. The UK's rave-punk institution hits harder than bands half their age, three decades of menace intact.
Rave-punkElectronic
Oxford band who turned math-rock precision into arena-sized dance rock, built on interlocking guitars and Yannis Philippakis's yelp.
Indie rockAlternative
Dutch-language songwriter whose pop moves from dancefloor rushes to blunt piano confessionals about love, climate and growing up now.
PopIndie pop
Deceptively gentle country that smuggles in sharp jokes and sharper edges under the pedal steel, with 'Golden Hour' grace and a Texas smirk.
Country-popAmericana
Amsterdam rapper whose Dutch-language wordplay comes dressed in high-fashion looks.
Hip-hop
The former Police frontman, whose solo catalog runs from jazz-leaning pop to Fields of Gold, lately playing it as a lean three-piece.
RockPop
Sydney pop-rock veterans who long outgrew their boy-band billing, with arena-sized hooks, real instruments, and a pop-punk past that still sneaks into the setlist.
Pop-rock
Dutch hitmaker and producer whose Dutch-language pop swings between dance singalongs like Hyperventilatie and tender ballads.
Pop
Fuzzy '90s-leaning indie-pop grown into lush, easy songcraft, going from bedroom demos to Rick Rubin sessions without losing the diary-page intimacy.
Indie pop90s alt
Essex alt-rock built around Conor Mason's soaring falsetto, riff-heavy and made for big rooms.
Alt-rock
Monochrome California moodiness: 'Sweater Weather' and a decade of slow-burn alt-pop, reunited for a generation that streamed them into legend.
Alt-rockDark pop
Hardcore's joyful crossover kings, with dreamy interludes, stage dives, total communion, and a crowd that moves as one.
HardcoreAlt-rock
Irish folk trio with hushed three-part harmonies and homesick story-songs that have been quietly filling rooms far bigger than anyone expected.
Folk
Glasgow trio pairing Lauren Mayberry's clear high vocal with synth hooks built big enough to fill a field, sharp lyrics under the shine.
Alternative
Dutch pop singer who moves between soulful piano ballads and sharp-tongued dance-pop.
Pop
British band giving grunge-weight guitars and nineties indie rock a new run behind Finn Keogh's raw voice.
Pop
Band from Geleen fronted by former DJ Mick Mazoo, playing live rock with an electronic pulse underneath.
ElectronicRock
Dutch multi-instrumentalist and showman who treats pop, glam and funk as one playground and is liable to turn any song into a long guitar jam.
PopRock
Norwegian trio making bright, funky electronic pop in their own language, as comfortable behind the decks as playing it live.
ElectronicPop
Dundalk brothers dragging Irish ballads back to the pub they came from, with rebel songs, filthy jokes and a rowdy band behind them.
FolkFolk punkIrish
Hushed, aching songwriting from a Texan who turned a bedroom recording into a global hit.
Indie folkSinger-songwriter
Texas folk-country songwriter whose 'Coal' spread from a phone video to a national hit, all cracked voice and acoustic guitar.
CountryFolk
British band reviving 2000s alt-rock gloss with a genuinely modern pop sensibility, with Y2K crunch and algorithm-era hooks.
