Lorde has been confirmed as a headliner for All Points East 2026, marking her return to London’s Victoria Park on Saturday, August 22.

Fresh from completing the North American leg of her 2025 Ultrasound world tour in support of her latest album Virgin, the New Zealand artist is set to lead a diverse bill featuring established names and emerging talent.

Tickets will go on general sale at 9 am GMT on Thursday, November 20, with a pre-sale available from Wednesday, November 19.

Organisers said in a statement, “All Points East is honoured to welcome global superstar Lorde as a headliner for next summer. A Grammy-winning artist and cultural force, Lorde is known for her genre-defying sound, introspective lyricism and striking creative vision. Since her breakthrough with Pure Heroine in 2013, she has redefined the contours of modern pop-merging poetic storytelling with minimalist, emotionally resonant production.”

Lorde’s appearance follows recent festival updates, including Deftones joining the Outbreak Fest line-up and Tyler, The Creator confirming a two-day takeover as part of All Points East 2026. 

The UK and European leg of Lorde’s Ultrasound tour is now underway, with shows across major cities including Manchester, Glasgow, Birmingham and Dublin, alongside two dates at London’s The O2. 

Lorde has also been announced for NOS Alive 2026 and recently fuelled speculation about a potential surprise appearance at Primavera Sound.
