On Monday (April 20), the TODAY show announced the star-studded lineup for its 2026 Citi Concert Series, featuring upcoming summertime performances from KATSEYE, Zara Larsson, Lizzo, Shaboozey, Brandi Carlile, Niall Horan, Tyla, Mumford & Sons, Bleachers, Maren Morris, Megan Moroney, Melanie Martinez and more.
Grammy-nominated Swedish pop sensation Zara Larsson will kick off the series with a Rockefeller Plaza concert on May 8, followed by a Bleachers show on May 22, timed to the Jack Antonoff-fronted band’s new Everyone for Ten Minutes LP, which drops the same day. Charlie Puth, who performed the national anthem at Super Bowl LX in February and released his Whatever’s Clever album last month, closes out the month with his May 29 show.
Lizzo leads the following month’s lineup with her June 5 show, followed by Niall Horan‘s June 12 set, a week after the arrival of the One Direction alum’s Dinner Party album. Melanie Martinez, who recently earned her fourth consecutive Billboard 200 top 10 studio album with Hades (No. 3), rounds out the month with her June 26 performance.
After a particularly stacked July featuring performances by South African pop star Tyla, Grammy-winning rockers Mumford & Sons and chart-topping country-pop artists Shaboozey, Megan Moroney and Maren Morris, August is all about KATSEYE. The always-viral global girl group is currently the only announced act slated for that month (Aug. 14), and at press time, it’s unknown whether Manon Bannerman will join her groupmates onstage. Currently on hiatus, Bannerman did not join KATSEYE during their Coachella debut last weekend.
The group will take over Rockefeller Plaza the same day their new WILD EP hits streaming.
Finally, Brandi Carlile, one of TIME’s 2026 Women of the Year, will deliver a late summer performance on Sept. 25.
“Music plays such a profound role in today’s culture, and we’re excited to support the Citi Concert Series on TODAY,” Elyse Lesley, head of U.S. Consumer Cards Marketing at Citi, exclusively tells Billboard. “We look forward to kicking off the summer with another memorable edition of the concert series for passionate fans tuning in from across the country.”
