Robbie Williams, Deftones and Turnstile among the first confirmed acts for MEO KALORAMA 2026

Other highlights of these first confirmations include Clipse, Interpol, Ravyn Lenae, Violent Femmes, Freddie Gibbs & The Alchemist and Unknown Mortal Orchestra.

Robbie Williams, Deftones, Turnstile, Clipse, Interpol, Ravyn Lenae, Violent Femmes, Freddie Gibbs & The Alchemist, Unknown Mortal Orchestra, Melody’s Echo Chamber, High Vis, Wednesday, Mind Enterprises, Joshua Idehen, Panic Shack, Pelados, Raquel Martins, Travo, and Tyler Ballgame are the first confirmed acts for a lineup that will bring many more surprises and position MEO KALORAMA as one of the most interesting and diverse festivals this summer.

In August, Parque da Bela Vista will host one of the biggest fulfilled promises of British pop. Robbie Williams brings to MEO KALORAMA a collection of hits that span generations and will fill the MEO Stage, leaving the entire audience singing at the top of their lungs.

Deftones are also a unique success story. Pioneers of nu-metal during the 90s, they released *private music* this year, an album that catapulted the American group to what is the best phase of their career, after being rediscovered by a new generation of fans who embraced the band as their own.

Turnstile are bigger than any label critics try to put on them. In 2021, they risked everything and released *GLOW ON*, a work that transformed hardcore culture into a mass phenomenon and took the Baltimore band to new heights.

Currently, they are one of the most celebrated guitar music acts of today, owners of several anthems whose messages appeal directly to a new generation that sings “I want to thank you for letting me be myself” at every show.

CLIPSE was a supergroup before it was. The hip-hop duo responsible for launching the musical careers of brothers Gene “Malice” and Terrence “Pusha T” Thornton returned this year with the album *Let Go Sort Em Out*. Produced by Pharrell Williams, it features collaborations with John Legend, Kendrick Lamar, and Tyler, The Creator, and, as expected, is one of this year’s nominees for “Rap Album Of The Year” at the GRAMMY Awards.

Freddie Gibbs and The Alchemist also need no introduction. Heavyweights of contemporary hip-hop, masters at transforming collaborations into classics, they released *Alfredo 2* in July of this year, the highly anticipated sequel to the album they released together in 2020, reaffirming the unique chemistry between Gibbs‘ sharp lyricism and Alchemist’s elegant and cinematic productions. Together, they bring this new chapter to Lisbon for an unmissable performance at MEO KALORAMA.

With Interpol, we travel to New York, the birthplace of the indie rock resurgence in the early 2000s, a movement spearheaded by the band led by Paul Banks, whose impact continues to this day. *Turn On The Bright Lights* and *Antics* are two of the most celebrated albums of that era and will certainly be part of the setlist of a show that promises to be memorable.

Possessing a unique voice, Ravyn Lenae is a rising pop star, responsible for one of the current hits — “Love Me Not” — which has caught the world’s attention. After touring with SZA and Noname, Ravyn finally makes her debut in Portugal.

“Let me go on, like a blister in the sun” is the verse that begins a chorus that transcends generations. This sunny and innocent melody leaves no one indifferent and is one of the highlights of Violent Femmes’ self-titled debut album, a record that helped define folk rock as a musical genre. Pillars of American alternative rock, the Wisconsin band finally returns to Portugal for a celebratory and relaxed show.

If you believe that “Obama Era Indie Music” is truly a scene, Unknown Mortal Orchestra is definitely one of the last children of those golden years. In 2015, they reached new heights with the release of Multi-Love, home to the singles “Multi-Love”, “Necessary Evil” and “Can’t Keep Checking My Phone”. At MEO KALORAMA, more recent tracks like “Hunnybee” and “That Life” will also not be forgotten, in a reunion with the Portuguese audience that has all the makings of a perfect event.

Melody’s Echo Chamber is another example of pop experimentalism in its purest form. Their self-titled debut album paved the way for a career that never leaned on clichés. For Portugal, Melody Prochet brings the brand new Unclouded, in what will be her first concert in Portugal in over 10 years. We can’t wait.

Everything good takes time, and High Vis is proof of that. Active since 2016, the British band is now receiving the recognition it has always deserved. The English group mixes indie rock, post-punk, and dance music in a unique sound that places them as one of the most interesting acts in contemporary rock music.

On the other side of the ocean, alt-country is back, and Wednesday is one of the main reasons for this. Karly Hartzman, frontwoman and main songwriter, creates songs that are as beautiful as they are challenging, painting contemporary American life with unparalleled lucidity. Bleeds, the 2025 album, is proof of this and, according to Pitchfork, the best rock album of the year.

Joining all these names are Mind Enterprises, an Italo-disco duo; Joshua Idehen, a poet and musician with an unmistakable voice; Panic Shack, a no-nonsense garage rock band from Wales; Pelados, masters of São Paulo’s lo-fi scene; Tyler Ballgame, a musician who blends funk and pop with contagious energy; and also the Portuguese projects Travo and Raquel Martins.
