The lineup for the very first full edition of Werchter Parklife is now complete, offering a genre-crossing mix of rock, alternative, metal, and rap. Taking place on Sunday 28 June 2026 at the iconic Festivalpark in Werchter, Belgium, the one-day festival has added Clipse, Against The Current, and Phantogram to the bill today. These new acts join previously announced heavyweights Papa Roach, Zwangere Guy, and the massive headliner, Linkin Park.

Organisers have curated a bill designed to match the versatility of the headliners. With the addition of hip-hop legends Clipse—featuring brothers Pusha T and Malice—alongside the pop-rock energy of Against The Current and the synth-pop stylings of Phantogram, the schedule is set for a diverse day of music. Demand for the event is already incredibly high, with confirmed reports that more than 50,000 tickets have already been sold.

Tickets are currently available via ticketmaster.be. A standard general admission ticket is priced at 131 euros, which includes service fees, as well as mobility and eco contributions. For superfans, a limited edition ‘Pit Ticket’ is available for 184 euros, granting exclusive access to the area right in front of the stage during the Linkin Park performance. Alternatively, a ‘Lounge’ package is on offer for 300 euros, providing access to a lounge with an open bar, food, and a parking ticket.

Headlining the event, Linkin Park continues their massive resurgence following the release of their eighth studio album, ‘From Zero’, in the fall of 2024. The album debuted at #1 in 14 countries, cementing their status as rock titans. Having delivered a powerhouse set at Rock Werchter last summer, the band brings their ‘From Zero World Tour’ back to Belgium in 2026. Phantogram, who are opening the festivities, are also supporting Linkin Park on this global tour.

The support bill is equally stacked with industry veterans. Papa Roach, led by Jacoby Shaddix, remains a dominant force in alternative rock more than two decades after “Last Resort” became a millennial anthem. They are joined by Zwangere Guy, a leading figure in the Brussels hip-hop scene known for his hard-hitting beats and raw honesty in Dutch-language rap.

The newly announced acts bring significant firepower to the roster. Clipse have made a remarkable comeback with their 2025 album ‘Let God Sort Em Out’, produced by Pharrell Williams. Meanwhile, Against The Current, fronted by Chrissy Costanza, continues to blur the lines between pop, rock, and punk, bringing a catalog that includes the viral League of Legends anthem “Legends Never Die”.

Werchter Parklife is a new addition to the Werchter festival family, positioning itself stylistically between Werchter Boutique and TW Classic. While the name debuted in 2021 for a special concert series during the pandemic recovery, 2026 marks its launch as a fully-fledged one-day festival.
