Rolling Loud, which describes itself as the world’s largest hip-hop festival, is coming to Orlando in 2026 and will make the city its only U.S. stop for the year, according to organizers.
The three-day music festival is scheduled for May 8–10, 2026, at Camping World Stadium, marking the first time Orlando has hosted a Rolling Loud event. Founded in Miami in 2015, Rolling Loud has historically held multiple editions across the United States each year, making the decision to center its 2026 U.S. presence in Central Florida a notable shift.
While the 2026 lineup has not yet been announced, Rolling Loud is known for booking some of the biggest names in hip-hop and typically draws tens of thousands of fans to each of its global destinations.
Tickets are set to go on presale Friday, January 9, at 10 a.m. EST. Three-day general admission passes will start at $249, plus fees, with a layaway option available that requires a small upfront deposit. Organizers say early purchasers will receive a free festival T-shirt. Tickets will be sold exclusively through Rolling Loud’s official website at 2026.rollingloud.com, and no third-party ticket sellers have been announced. Fans can also sign up on the site for updates and presale access.
In addition to the main festival weekend, organizers are promoting “RL Week,” scheduled for May 6–13. The extended lineup of events is expected to include pre-parties, afterparties and themed takeovers at local attractions, further extending the festival’s footprint throughout the Orlando area.
After its Orlando dates, the Rolling Loud World Tour will continue internationally, with stops planned in Sydney and Melbourne, Australia, on March 7–8, 2026.
By selecting Orlando as its sole U.S. host city in 2026, Rolling Loud positions Central Florida as the national home for the festival next spring, bringing one of hip-hop’s most prominent live music events to the region.
