The Rolling Loud hip-hop festival will only hit one U.S. city this year, but in a return to the event’s Florida roots, that city will be Orlando. On Wednesday morning (Jan. 7), organizers announced that Rolling Loud 2026 will touch down at the 60,000-capacity Camping World Stadium on May 8-10, with a lineup to be announced soon.
“We wanted to bring Rolling Loud back to the summer and build it without compromise,” co-founder/co-CEO Matt Zingler said in a statement. “With Orlando, we’re able to be more accessible for fans, expand our footprint, and think long-term. Rolling Loud has always been about meeting the culture where it’s going, not where it’s been. Bringing the festival back to the summer — in a market built for it — lets us do that at the highest level.”
A pre-sale will kick off on Friday (Jan. 9) at 10 a.m. ET here, with all early purchasers receiving an exclusive Rolling Loud 2026 T-shirt.
Organizers also hyped what they’ve dubbed “RL Week,” a full lineup of exclusive events, pre-parties, afterparties, pop-ups, theme park takeovers, exclusive drops and experiences that will take over Orlando during the festival week, with more details to be announced soon. A preview of the festival setup depicted three stages — Punx, Loud and Tent — as well as a carnival space and the “Rolling Arena.”
While the Orlando stop is the only one in the U.S. this year, the Rolling Loud World Tour will touch down in Sydney and Melbourne, Australia on March 7-8, with a lineup featuring headliners Gunna and Ken Carson along with Sexyy Red, Swae Lee, Tyga and Ski Mask the Slump God. Producers also noted that after November 2025’s successful roll-out of the first Rolling Loud India with headliners Central Cee, Wiz Khalifa, Don Toliver and Karan Aujla, the event will return to the country this November.
Last March’s Rolling Loud California featured a stacked roster including headliners A$AP Rocky, Playboi Carti and Peso Pluma, as well as YG, Bossman Dlow, Cash Cobain, Blxst, Quavo, 03 Greedo, Dom Kennedy, Tee Grizzley and Luh Tyler, among many others.
