From pop to electronic music, this year's Sunny Hill Festival offers a perfect mix of genres on stage.

For three consecutive days, Kosovo's most renowned music festival will give fans the chance to experience live performances by some of the world's biggest artists while also providing a platform for Albanian musicians.

Known for global hits such as "Firework," "Dark Horse," and "Roar," Katy Perry will headline the festival's opening night. Since her debut in 2008, she has amassed more than 115 billion streams and sold over 70 million adjusted albums worldwide.

Perry will be preceded by the "Balkan superstar" Dhurata Dora. The German-born Albanian singer has accumulated more than 200 million streams and over one billion video views worldwide.

Travelling from Liverpool to Prishtina for the festival's second night is EsDeeKid. The British rapper released his debut mixtape, "Rebel," in June 2025 and has since been gaining momentum with tracks such as "4 Raws," "Phantom," and "Century."

The second night will close with Scottish singer Lewis Capaldi, known for emotional hits including "Someone You Loved," "Before You Go," and "Bruises." This will not be Capaldi's first time headlining a major festival, as he has already headlined events across five continents.

The final night belongs to Martin Garrix, one of the world's most successful DJs and producers in the pop and electronic music scene. He has performed at some of the world's biggest festivals and collaborated with stars including Dua Lipa, Khalid, Bono, and The Edge.

Before Garrix takes the stage, electronic music DJ Tyson O'Brien will entertain the crowd with his energetic performance.

Among the Albanian artists and DJs set to light up the festival's four stages from July 31 to August 2 are Lyrical Son, MC Kresha, EKO, Sahati, Asgjë Sikur Dielli, Sytë, Artassassin, and Uran B.
