Lorde set the tone for an exciting summer as Governors Ball slowly revealed what fans can expect in 2026.
The popular music festival is set to return to New York’s Flushing Meadows Corona Park from June 5-7, bringing together major global stars and emerging artists for three days packed with music and emotion.
The first night of the festival belonged to Lorde, who headlined on June 5.
The singer’s performance marked her return to the Governors Ball after many years, which made longtime fans particularly emotional.
However, opening day also featured artists like Baby Keem, Katseye, Pierce the Veil, Mariah the Scientist, King Princess and Flipturn, keeping the crowd lively from start to finish.
June 6 became a special time for K pop fans as Stray Kids closed out the night with their first-ever appearance at the festival.
They followed solid sets from Kali Uchis, Major Lazer, Wet Leg and Ravyn Lenae.
Furthermore, speaking about their journey, Seungmin said, “Of course, we recognize the difference in the crowds we play in front of now, but our mindset on how we approach the concert hasn’t changed since our debut.
We’re grateful that we’re still doing shows and that people are coming to see us, and we’re proud to have made it this far.
The final day ended with A$AP Rocky headlining the festival, his performance taking place just before the release of his new album Don’t Be Dumb.
