Scottish singer-songwriter Lewis Capaldi headlines a stellar day of live music at Roundhay Park as the massive summer event enters its second day

The musical celebrations continue in Leeds as one of the country's most prominent outdoor events gears up for an unforgettable Saturday at Roundhay Festival 2026.

After the party that Pitbull and company brought on the very first day of the festival, things are a little bit more subdued today in contrast.

Moving into day two, the rolling green spaces of Roundhay Park are set to welcome another wave of music fans eager to experience world-class talent within a historic natural amphitheatre.

Anticipation is high across the city for Saturday's headlining set from global charting star Lewis Capaldi.

Renowned for his raw vocal power and humorous onstage presence, the multi-platinum artist will bring the main stage to a close with an emotionally charged, anthem-filled performance.

He leads an incredibly strong Saturday bill that includes pop sensation Conan Gray, breakout star Jessie Murph, and an array of highly regarded rising artists performing across both festival stages.

Gates open from 1pm, and festival-goers are advised to head down early to secure the best viewing spots on the hillsides and avoid any arrival queues.
