Harry Styles will curate 2026 Meltdown festival, and there’s one thing fans need to do to secure tickets.
In case you missed it, the British musician has been chosen to oversee the annual music and art event at London’s Southbank Centre.
Set to take place from 11 to 21 June, it’s good news for those of you who missed out on Together, Together tour tickets, as he will perform an intimate gig at the festival.
Harry will be following in the footsteps of musical legends in the role, as previous editions have been curated by the likes of Grace Jones, David Bowie, Nile Rogers, and Yoko Ono.
Most recently, Little Simz curated the 2025 event.
Speaking about the upcoming festival, Harry said: “I’m deeply honoured to curate the Meltdown festival, especially for the Southbank Centre’s 75th anniversary year. My goal as the curator is to share the music and art that I love, and to celebrate the rich history of the venue.
“We both share a passionate belief that music is a vital part of life. It brings us together, and the Southbank Centre has been at the heart of it, providing easy access to great music for the past 75 years. I’m incredibly grateful to Southbank for having me – it’s really exciting for me to have this opportunity in such an iconic venue.”
