Berlin's Summer Music Events Feature International Stars
The Lollapalooza Festival returns to Berlin on July 18‑19, 2026, with a line‑up that includes U.S. rapper Pitbull, British singer Lily Allen, New Zealand star Lorde and Scottish singer‑songwriter Lewis Capaldi performing at the Olympiapark. Organisers also highlight emerging acts such as Scotland's indie rock band The Snuts and Japan's J‑pop group Atarashi Gakko!.
Earlier in the month, on July 11, The Cure played a concert in Berlin's Wuhlheide park. Bassist Simon Gallup was absent due to illness and was temporarily replaced by his son Eden. The band performed a 2½‑hour set but did not include any songs from their 2024 album "Songs of a Lost World."
