Global superstar Pitbull is set to light up the UK next summer after being announced as one of the headline acts for BST Hyde Park 2026 and the brand-new Roundhay Festival in Leeds.
The Give Me Everything hitmaker, famously known as Mr. Worldwide, will take centre stage at Hyde Park, London, on Friday 10 July 2026, in what’s expected to be one of the biggest live parties of the year. Joining him will be pop powerhouse Kesha, with many more names yet to be revealed.
In addition to his London appearance, Pitbull has also been confirmed as one of the headliners for Roundhay Festival, a brand-new event set to take place at Roundhay Park in Leeds next summer. The new festival is being launched by the same team behind BST Hyde Park, promising a similar experience of world-class music and stunning outdoor production.
Pitbull will headline Roundhay Festival on Friday 3 July 2026, once again joined by Kesha for a high-energy show packed with hits like Timber, Fireball, and Don’t Stop the Party.
Speaking about his return to the UK, Pitbull said in a statement:
“The UK always brings the energy, and I can’t wait to get back out there. London, Leeds, we’re turning both parks into a global dance floor next summer. Dale!”
The announcement has sent fans into a frenzy on social media, with many calling it “the perfect summer lineup” and praising the pairing of Pitbull and Kesha, who previously collaborated on the chart-topping hit Timber.
This will be Pitbull’s first major UK headline show since his 2023 arena tour, which sold out venues across Europe. The Miami-born superstar is known for his electric stage presence, infectious hits, and ability to turn any concert into a global party.
Meanwhile, BST Hyde Park 2026 is shaping up to be one of its most diverse editions yet. Alongside Pitbull, Lewis Capaldi has also been announced as a headliner, marking his long-awaited return to the stage following his break from touring. Country legend Garth Brooks has also joined the bill, with even more acts set to be announced in the coming months.
The arrival of Roundhay Festival brings another major summer music destination to the north of England, with organisers promising “a world-class experience to rival Hyde Park”, complete with multiple stages, immersive zones, and family-friendly entertainment.
With Pitbull leading the charge, next summer’s festival season is already looking red-hot.
