Saudi Arabia, start your engines. The Formula 1 STC Saudi Arabian Grand Prix 2026 is set to return to Jeddah this April, and one of its biggest highlights will once again be the post-race concert series — with global EDM star Kygo confirmed as a headliner.
The chart-topping DJ and producer will perform on Sunday, April 19, bringing his signature tropical house sound to the Jeddah Corniche Circuit following the race. The announcement adds to the Grand Prix's growing reputation for pairing high-octane motorsport with world-class live entertainment.
A Proven Formula for Star Power
Previous editions of the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix have welcomed major international artists, including A$AP Rocky, Alicia Keys, Jennifer Lopez, Justin Bieber, Pharrell Williams, Travis Scott, and Usher. Organisers promise that the 2026 post-race concerts will continue that tradition, with Kygo leading this year's lineup.
Held under the lights along the Red Sea, the Formula 1 STC Saudi Arabian Grand Prix 2026 will run from Friday, April 17 to Sunday, April 19. The Jeddah Corniche Circuit is known for its relentless pace and dramatic setting, and is officially described by Formula 1 as the fastest street circuit in the sport.
From Viral Remixes to Global Stardom
Born Kyrre Gørvell-Dahll, Kygo rose to international fame in 2013 with his remix of Ed Sheeran's I See Fire. His debut single Firestone followed in December 2014, cementing his status as a global force in electronic music.
Today, Kygo is one of the world's most-streamed artists, with over 23 billion cumulative audio and video streams, according to Sony Music. His crossover hits include It Ain't Me with Selena Gomez, which reached the Top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100, and Higher Love, which reintroduced Whitney Houston's vocals to a new generation of listeners.
