More Than a Dozen Superstars Set for iHeartRadio Music Festival in Las Vegas

iHeartRadio has officially announced the lineup for its flagship music event, with more than a dozen stars from around the globe taking the Las Vegas stage. Allegiant Stadium’s multi-day festival remains one of the country’s largest single-venue music festivals with a diverse lineup of chart-topping artists spanning multiple genres.

Over a dozen global superstars will take the stage at the iHeartRadio Music Festival at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. The multi-genre event will air live on iHeartRadio stations and national television networks and will draw tens of thousands of attendees, featuring top chart-topping artists.

Event organizers have confirmed that the upcoming iHeartRadio event will feature a massive roster of more than a dozen superstars. The lineup was curated to showcase a broad cross-section of the current music industry, including top acts in pop, hip-hop, country and rock.

The announcement continues the festival’s tradition of bringing the year’s biggest recording artists together in one place. iHeartRadio organizers selected the artists based on chart performance, listener demand on iHeartRadio stations, and cultural impact over the past year,

Over a dozen household names are confirmed to be involved, although the run-of-show is under embargo until the event begins. Unlike other live music festivals, the iHeartRadio Music Festival doesn’t limit itself to one genre.

In the past, the show has included simultaneous performances by legacy acts, current Billboard Hot 100-topping artists, and breakout artists. The festival will continue to broadly represent the mainstream music scene, with the addition of “more than a dozen superstars.”

The event will take place at Allegiant Stadium, home of the NFL’s Las Vegas Raiders. The venue was chosen for its capacity and modern infrastructure. Allegiant Stadium can seat more than 60,000 in concert configurations, allowing the iHeartRadio event to accommodate a massive live audience.

Logistics include extensive security planning with the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, a traffic plan for both the Strip and Interstate 15, and staging that allows quick artist changeovers.

“This is a production of scale,” iHeartMedia leadership said in official missives about the event. “The festival remains a fundamental component of our annual programming, designed to reward listeners and provide a great platform for recording artists,” company reps said.

Local tourism authorities have also underlined the event’s importance. Big music festivals significantly contribute to hotel occupancy rates and regional spending in the shoulder seasons of late summer and early fall, according to the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority (LVCVA).

The iHeartRadio Music Festival is a juggernaut in live entertainment and broadcasting. It’s an important promotional window for the music business. Artists use their sets to preview new material, announce upcoming tour dates, and connect directly with a massive, engaged audience.

That event is a huge economic shot in the arm for the city of Las Vegas. Tens of thousands of fans pour in, supporting local hotels, casinos, restaurants, and retail. Plus, the festival’s extensive broadcast exposure elevates Las Vegas’ brand as a premier global destination for live entertainment.

Here’s what fans and attendees can expect in the next few weeks:

Tickets: General admission and VIP packages will be available through official ticketing partners.
Broadcast Scheduling: iHeartMedia will determine the TV broadcast schedule, typically in partnership with a major broadcast network (e.g., Fox) to air edited highlights, and will stream live audio on the iHeartRadio app and local stations.
Event Implementation: The festival will run over its scheduled multi-day weekend, culminating in the main stage performances.
