XG becomes the first Japanese artist to perform at one of the U.K.'s largest festivals
On June 6 local time, XG performed at "Capital's Summertime Ball 2026," one of the U.K.'s largest music festivals, held at Wembley Stadium in London.
"Capital's Summertime Ball" is a large-scale music festival hosted by the U.K. radio station Capital. XG is the first Japanese artist to perform at this festival since it began in 2009. Furthermore, XG has also become the first Japanese artist in history to perform at Wembley Stadium.
On the "Capital's Summertime Ball" stage, XG performed tracks including "HYPNOTIZE," the lead track from their latest album, a cover of the global hit "Flowers" by Sweet Female Attitude, and their popular UK garage house-based song "SOMETHING AIN'T RIGHT." During their approximately 10-minute performance, they captivated the audience by showcasing an overwhelming presence and their unique worldview.
Moving forward, XG will make their first appearances at the music festivals "FUJI ROCK FESTIVAL '26" and "ROCK IN JAPAN FESTIVAL 2026." Additionally, they will appear at domestic and international music festivals, including a performance at the "HEAD IN THE CLOUDS Music & Arts Festival" held in Los Angeles, U.S. For their second world tour, "XG WORLD TOUR: THE CORE," they are scheduled to perform live across the globe in Asia, North America, the U.K. & Europe, and Australia, kicking off with a concert in Bangkok, Thailand, on July 19.
