This summer, the 2026 Roundhay Festival is making its debut in Leeds, UK on Friday, July 3rd and Saturday, July 4th. The two-day festival, presented by American Express, aims to deliver “world-class music, outstanding experiences, and a warm welcome— all delivered with care for our community, inclusivity, and the planet.”
Fittingly announced on Cinco de Mayo, headliner Pitbull revealed that the iconic Mexican norteño band Los Tucanes de Tijuana would be joining him on July 3rd. The band joins previously announced July 3rd performers Jason Derulo, Tinie Tempah and Lil Jon.
Los Tucanes de Tijuana are known for high-energy live shows and lyrics centering social commentary, drawing more than 12 million monthly listeners on Spotify. The group helped to drive the norteño genre’s surge in the 1990s and 2000s with hits including “La Chona,” “El Tucanazo” and “Vivir de Noche.” In 2012, the group secured a Latin Grammy Awards win for 365 Días, and made history as the first norteño act to perform at Coachella.
Also a defining Latin performer, Pitbull has sold more than 25 million albums and draws over 60 million monthly listeners. The Grammy Award-winning artist is known for global hits including “Timber,” “Give Me Everything” and “Hotel Room Service.” Known to collaborate with other industry stars, Pitbull has worked with musicians Jennifer Lopez, Usher, Christina Aguilera and more. His worldwide success spans genres, including hip-hop, Latin and pop.
Despite his “Mr. Worldwide” nickname, the Roundhay Festival marks Pitbull’s first performance in Leeds.
The lineup for Saturday, July 4th currently features headliner Lewis Capaldi, supported by Conan Gray and Jacob Alon. Further additions to both days of the festival are expected to be announced soon.
Tickets for the Roundhay Festival are on sale now at www.roundhayfestival.com. Currently, the festival does not offer a two-day pass. Friday and Saturday tickets are sold separately at varying prices.
