BLACKPINK’s Jennie is set to headline the 2026 MAD COOL FESTIVAL in Madrid, Spain, further proving her global influence as a K-pop solo artist.
The festival lineup, announced on November 10, confirmed that Jennie will perform as a headliner on July 9, 2026, during the large-scale event running from July 8 to 11.
She will share the stage with international stars like Foo Fighters, Florence + the Machine, Twenty One Pilots, and Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds. Jennie is the only K-pop artist on the 2026 lineup.
MAD COOL FESTIVAL, which started in 2016, is one of Europe’s biggest music festivals, featuring top artists from rock, indie, alternative, pop, and electronic genres.
Past performers have included Muse, Gracie Abrams, Olivia Rodrigo, and Lizzo.
Earlier this year in April, Jennie made history as the first K-pop solo artist to perform on the Outdoor Theatre Stage at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in the U.S. Her powerful and unique performance captured global attention and cemented her status as a leading K-pop soloist on the world stage.
