Zara Larsson is giving her Midnight Sun era a major fantasy makeover with a new collaboration involving Winx Club.

The collaboration has quickly caught the attention of fans of both Larsson and Winx Club, particularly after promotional material began circulating online ahead of the release. Posts shared around the collaboration show Larsson embracing the colourful, fairy inspired aesthetic associated with the franchise, creating a crossover that feels closely connected to the bright visual identity of her current musical era.

The announcement also gives "Midnight Sun" another moment in the spotlight. Larsson originally released the song in 2025 as the title track from her album Midnight Sun. The track became one of the defining releases of the project and has continued to receive attention during the album's extended promotional cycle. Apple Music lists "Midnight Sun" among Larsson's music videos and identifies the song as part of her 2025 pop catalogue.

Larsson's connection to the Winx Club aesthetic has also made the collaboration particularly appealing to fans. The singer has frequently leaned into colourful styling and playful visuals throughout the Midnight Sun era, while the animated franchise is known for its fairy characters, vibrant fashion and fantasy settings.

The upcoming video is therefore expected to bring those two visual worlds together. While details about the full storyline and the extent of Larsson's role in the animation have yet to be fully revealed, promotional material has already given audiences a glimpse of the crossover.

Online reactions have been largely enthusiastic, with fans describing the pairing as a natural fit. Discussion around the announcement has also highlighted Larsson's long association with the kind of bright, summery pop aesthetic that fits comfortably with Winx Club.

The timing also keeps "Midnight Sun" active well into 2026. Larsson performed the song at the 2026 Grammy Awards premiere ceremony, where it was nominated for Best Dance Pop Recording. The Grammy appearance gave the track another prominent platform after its original release.

The original "Midnight Sun" music video has also continued to attract substantial attention online. Tracking data shows the official video had passed 50m YouTube views during 2026, reflecting the song's continued audience interest well after its initial release.
