Heartland today announces English pop icons DURAN DURAN as Friday’s headliners. They join top acts such as NICK CAVE & THE BAD SEEDS, THE MINDS OF 99, 4 NON BLONDES, LP and MANIC STREET PREACHERS on this year’s festival line-up. Heartland 2026 will take place at Egeskov Castle in Midtfyn on 18th – 20th June 2026.
With more than 100 million albums sold and countless hit singles and accolades over their nearly 50-year career, DURAN DURAN are one of the world’s biggest pop bands of all time. This summer you can experience them and hits like “Hungry Like the Wolf”, “Ordinary World” and “Rio” when they visit Heartland for the first time as a headliner on Friday, June 19, 2026.
Duran Duran have pushed the boundaries of pop music throughout their career and stand for me as one of the greatest pop artists of all time. I am therefore very excited that they have agreed to be the headliner on Friday at this summer’s festival. I find it hard to imagine a better way to kick off the weekend than with a true hit parade from the British masters! I look forward to unveiling the rest of the program in the coming months and not least to seeing a lot of happy guests at Heartland this summer – Ulrik Ørum-Petersen, Festival director and music manager
