Karol G made history these past two weekends as Coachella’s first-ever Latina headliner, but for those of us who didn’t make it out to the desert, there are thankfully going to be quite a few more opportunities to see the artist throughout 2026.
At her second weekend headlining set, the Colombian superstar welcomed a slew of special guests, including J Balvin, Ryan Castro, Peso Pluma, Becky G, and an all-female mariachi band. After the powerful parade of collaborators, the screen behind Karol G lit up with red text that read, “Nos Vamos de Tour,” which translates to “we’re going on tour.”
The 2026 VIAJANDO POR EL MUNDO TROPITOUR is set to be a massive outing, with the Grammy-winning artist returning to stadiums across the world for shows in North America, Mexico, Latin America, and Europe. In the U.S., the tour will begin at Chicago’s Soldier Field in July and will then move to Las Vegas, Seattle, El Paso, Atlanta, Los Angeles, and more.
Karol G is a known record-breaker — she was the first female artist to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 with a Spanish-language album — and this 2026 tour will be a celebration of her enormous global reach.
Sign up to join the Artist Presale before Friday, April 24 at 7:00 a.m. PT for a chance to get tickets.

Zara Larsson’s ongoing Midnight Sun Tour is the jewel-toned, neon-drenched event of the year (my crowd in Nashville on April 4 even featured multiple inflatable dolphins being tossed in the air like beach balls). This album and tour have been huge for the Swedish-born pop artist, and she’s meeting the moment with a show that shows off her acrobatic live vocals and full choreography. –Mary

Stepping onto the stage on April 15 for the first of two sold-out headlining shows at Radio City Music Hall, RAYE was ready to do much more than simply entertain. The Grammy-nominated Brit proved her reputation as a superstar in the making with a show that transformed the iconic New York City venue into, by turns, a jazz club, a symphony, an inspirational mass therapy session and a giant rave. Crowd favorites like “WHERE IS MY HUSBAND!,” “NIGHTINGALE LANE.” and “CLICK CLACK SYMPHONY.” transcended their studio recordings thanks to RAYE’s world-class vocals, spectacular on-stage production and pure, undeniable star power. –Glenn, Content Writer

…Fcukers, the New York City-based electronic dance duo composed of vocalist Shanny Wise and producer Jackson Walker Lewis. Blending bits of late-aughts bloghouse, The Neptunes’ R&B synths, Caribbean beats and U.K. drum and bass, along with an all-encompassing irreverent party energy, Fcukers take their live show to the next level with hypnotic, and often blindsiding, club visuals… and we like it like that. Following the release of their debut album Ö in March, Fcukers are set for a 2026 headlining tour across the U.S., Europe and the U.K. They’ve also scored opening slots for Rüfüs Du Sol in the States, will be the special guest at Harry Styles’ Brazil shows, and will play numerous festivals—including a hometown gig at Governors Ball in June. –Bryan, Content Writer
Foo Fighters - “Of All People”
Foo Fighters deliver on the fast-paced, classic punk rock sound that inspired their new album, Your Favorite Toy, with its fourth single “Of All People.” Unveiled just ahead of the album’s release this Friday (April 24), the hard-charged track finds frontman Dave Grohl battling with survivor’s guilt while breaking out some rare Foos’ f-bombs and biting back at an unwelcome blast-from-the-past. “How can you live happily ever after?” he asks in the chorus. With more of this, Dave. –Bryan, Content Writer
The Strokes - “Going Shopping”
Okay, it’s time to talk about that New York City rock band with a baritone leader singer everyone has been posting about online lately. That’s right: The Strokes! They’ve released their first new song in six years, “Going Shopping,” and it is the perfect breezy tune to lead us into summer here in the city. It sounds like a continuation of their (great) most recent record, 2020’s The New Abnormal, which tracks because their upcoming album, Reality Awaits, (June 26) was also produced by Rick Rubin. And more exciting, the NYC rockers are hitting the road this summer. –Nick, Senior Content Editor
ADÉLA - “KGB”

Daisy Grenade - “Girls Are So Lucky”
Ever wonder what it’s like being the girl in the rock band? Rising alt-pop duo Daisy Grenade’s new single “Girls Are So Lucky” is an ode to the many highs and lows of punk-rock girlhood—whether that means fielding idiotic questions like “Are you the drummer’s girlfriend?” (Answer: “Don’t ask me who I am!”) or putting on “full glam in the minivan.” The track’s sing-song hook arrives with a winking dose of sarcasm before the beat drops, unexpectedly swerving into glitchy, dubstep-fueled hedonism. The rest of the duo’s forthcoming EP, So Much To Say, is set to arrive May 15 ahead of their first-ever headline run across North America. –Glenn, Content Writer
Jessie Ware - “Don’t You Know Who I Am?”
On her sixth album Superbloom, Jessie Ware transports listeners straight to the Garden of Eden. The lush, cinematic studio set adds sparkling and unexpected layers to the disco delights she’s consistently delivered throughout the decade on predecessors like What’s Your Pleasure? (2020) and That! Feels Good! (2023). At turns seductive (lead single “I Could Get Used to This,”) demanding (“Don’t You Know Who I Am?”), and downright devastating (“16 Summers”), the British pop chanteuse’s latest declaration from the dance floor adds flower by lovely sonic flower to a beautiful bouquet that perfectly heralds a season of springtime abandon. –Glenn
