Capital’s Summertime Ball 2026 line-up
The Summertime Ball has built a reputation for bringing together some of the biggest names in music, and this year’s event is no exception.
Niall Horan is set to perform at Wembley alongside RAYE and Jason Derulo. Take That will also take to the stage, with Myles Smith, Lola Young and Sienna Spiro joining the bill.
Fans of dance music are in for a treat too, with Calvin Harris and Fatboy Slim among the performers. Robyn and Bebe Rexha will also appear.
Simon Cowell’s latest protégés December 10, Sekou, XG, Stephen Sanchez and MEEK complete the line up.
There is also one mystery still to be revealed. Capital has confirmed a surprise act will perform on the day, with the identity of the artist announced during the afternoon. Last year, JLS delighted fans with the secret slot.
All eyes will be on Wembley to see who gets the nod this time.
