Butterfly Festival has unveiled 15 new artists for its debut edition, set to take over Hangaren in Copenhagen from 26th - 27th June, 2026. The inaugural event is quickly shaping up as one of Scandinavia’s most anticipated new summer gatherings, blending international chart-toppers with rising Nordic talent. With two-day tickets on sale now, excitement is building for what promises to be a major new addition to the European festival calendar.
Joining previously announced names Macklemore, Bolaget, Soppgirobygget and Lovet, the latest wave is led by global hitmaker Alan Walker and British singer-songwriter Tom Odell. Danish dance heavyweight Morten and Swedish personality Joakim Lundell further strengthen the bill, alongside Anis Don Demina, Fjellrev and Bennett. The diverse selection reflects Butterfly Festival’s ambition to bridge pop, electronic and contemporary Scandinavian sounds across its two days.
The announcement continues with Papi Santana, Casso, Raaban and Young Earth Sauce, plus Wahlstedt, Emoemy, Caroline Roxy and 3DAH!, rounding out a 15-artist expansion that significantly elevates the festival’s debut offering. From radio-ready anthems to high-energy club sets, the programme is designed to deliver broad appeal while spotlighting regional favourites.

As Butterfly Festival prepares to make its first mark on Copenhagen’s live music landscape, the combination of established international stars and fast-rising Nordic acts positions it as a compelling new contender in the European festival scene. With 26th - 27th June, 2026 locked in and tickets moving, Butterfly Festival’s opening chapter is already taking flight.
