IDLES, Halsey, JADE and Zara Larsson are among a host of names that have been added to the 2026 line-up for Open’er.
The festival will head back to its usual site in Gdynia, Poland, and run between July 1 and July 4. The Cure were revealed as the first headliner for the event on Friday July 3, before Nick Cave, Calvin Harris and The xx were also confirmed to top next year’s bill.
Now, eight new acts have been added to the line-up including Reneé Rapp, Sofi Tukker, Clipse and Audrey Nuna. Tickets are on sale now and available to buy here.
IDLES will play the Tent Stage on July 2, Halsey will perform on the Main Stage on the same day and JADE will appear at the Tent Stage on July 4.
Elsewhere, David Byrne will perform on July 1 over at the Tent Stage, following the Talking Heads icon announcing his new album ‘Who Is The Sky?’, which features Hayley Williams, St. Vincent, and more, and Ethel Cain will play on that same stage on July 3.
Also on the bill is Atlanta pop star Teddy Swims, who became a household name thanks to his hit song ‘Lose Control’, which featured on his debut album ‘I’ve Tried Everything But Therapy (Part 1)’. He will be performing on the Main Stage on July 4.
This year, performances came from Linkin Park, who headlined as part of their giant 2025 world tour, while Massive Attack and Nine Inch Nails also topped the bill. Other performances this year came from RAYE, Justice, St Vincent, FKA Twigs, Gracie Abrams and more.
The 2025 edition also saw a huge performance from Massive Attack, who kicked off the event by showing solidarity with the people of Palestine, and Doechii delivered a mammoth set that NME described as “turning the main stage into a swampy wonderland”.
Others commanding the stages included Camila Cabello, Conan Gray, Molchat Doma, Wolf Alice, and Samara Cyn. Check out more of NME’s roundup from the closing night here.
