Roundhay Festival is officially set to be the jewel in the crown of Leeds’s 2026 summer, with the return of Lewis Capaldi to the city in July.
The Scottish superstar will headline the park on July 4, and moments ago, organisers have revealed the stellar supporting cast joining him for this historic outdoor show.
Joining Capaldi is the unapologetically authentic Conan Gray, riding the massive success of his fourth studio album, Wishbone, released in August 2025.
Gray has transitioned from a YouTube sensation to a global arena-filler; fresh off his sold-out Wishbone Pajama Show Tour, Conan will bring his intimate, festival-ready anthems to Leeds.
Fans can expect a spectacular set featuring new hits like ‘Vodka Cranberry’ and ‘This Song’ alongside multi-platinum classics ‘Heather’ and ‘Maniac.’
Adding a touch of mesmerising folk to the lineup is Jacob Alon; the Scottish singer-songwriter has captivated the UK indie-folk scene with a devastatingly introspective storytelling style and a falsetto that has drawn comparisons to Jeff Buckley.
Following the viral success of ‘Fairy in a Bottle,’ Alon’s 2025 debut album In Limerence earned a Mercury Prize shortlisting and a prestigious Critics' Choice win at this week’s 2026 Brit Awards.
The addition of these names cements Roundhay Park’s legacy as one of the UK’s premier music landmarks, following in the footsteps of legends like Madonna, The Rolling Stones, and Ed Sheeran.
The Saturday show serves as the anchor to a high-octane weekend that kicks off on July 3, when ‘Mr. Worldwide, Pitbull brings his signature high-energy show to the festival alongside pop icon Kesha.
For Lewis Capaldi, this show represents a triumphant return to the peak of the industry. His 2025 EP Survive saw the title track become the fastest-selling UK single of the year, marking his sixth UK Number 1 and placing him in the elite company of artists like Beyoncé and Lady Gaga.
Following a sold-out 17-date arena tour that garnered unanimous five-star reviews, Capaldi’s appearance at Roundhay Festival is set to be his ultimate comeback performance.
