Rock for People has announced Halsey as the fifth and final headliner for its 2026 edition. The genre-defying pop star will top the bill at the Czech festival, which returns to Park 360 in Hradec Králové for five days from 10th to 14th June 2026.
Halsey joins an already stacked roster of headliners including Gorillaz, Limp Bizkit, Bring Me The Horizon, and heavy metal legends Iron Maiden. This announcement marks a significant milestone for the event, as it will be Halsey’s first-ever performance in the Czech Republic. She is set to take the stage on Friday, 13th June.
The reveal comes as part of the festival’s popular Advent Calendar campaign, which has seen a wave of new artists added to the line-up in recent days. Alongside the headline news, British indie favourites Wolf Alice and Yard Act have been confirmed, along with Alessi Rose. These join other recent heavy additions such as A Day To Remember, Trivium, letlive., and Kublai Khan TX.
Festival founder Michal Thomes expressed his excitement about securing the American singer-songwriter. “It’s great that we’re closing the announcement of the biggest festival names with a world-class modern headliner who has dominated the lineups of giant international festivals such as Reading & Leeds,” he said. “We are very happy that Halsey’s first Czech performance will take place at Rock for People.”
Halsey’s addition brings a modern pop edge to the alternative festival. Celebrating 10 years since her debut album Badlands, she has racked up three Grammy nominations and previously collaborated with fellow headliners Bring Me The Horizon. Organisers have teased that fans can expect nine more names to be dropped at midnight in the run-up to Christmas Day.
Rock for People continues to solidify its reputation as one of Europe’s fastest-growing alternative music events. The festival recently secured a spot in the top 10 best festivals at the European Festival Awards, picking up nominations for Best Major Festival, Promoter of the Year, and The Event Safety Award.
The event takes place at Park 360, a unique venue located 90 minutes east of Prague. Set among repurposed airfield bunkers, the site transforms into a sustainable festival city each June. Beyond the music programme of over 200 artists, attendees can explore theatre, film screenings, and workshops.
Tickets for the 2026 edition are on sale now. Organisers have warned that VIP and COMFY+ upgrade options are already nearing a sell-out. Standard tickets, including single-day, 4-day, and 5-day options, are available via the official festival website.
