Janet Jackson Added to Sandringham Heritage Live Lineup

The five‑time Grammy winner Janet Jackson has been confirmed as a performer for the upcoming Heritage Live Festival at Sandringham in Norfolk, scheduled for 19 August 2026. The event celebrates local heritage through music, and Jackson’s inclusion adds international pop prestige to the lineup.

She will perform alongside Wyclef Jean and Soul II Soul on a lawn stage amid the historic setting of the Royal Family’s Norfolk estate. The festival already features acting icons such as Ricky Martin, Lionel Richie and guitarist Eric Clapton, with the line‑up built to deliver a blend of contemporary pop and classic hits.

Giles Cooper, director of Heritage Live, expressed enthusiasm for Jackson’s participation. “We’re delighted to welcome Janet Jackson to our 2026 line‑up at Sandringham estate,” Cooper said. “Heritage Live has always aimed to present the very biggest global artists in special settings.”

Jackson, who is 60, has previously toured the UK in 2024 as part of her Together Again tour, visiting cities such as Birmingham, London and Manchester. She is famed for hits such as “Together Again”, “All For You”, and the duet “Scream” with brother Michael. Her 1993 album Janet remains her only UK number‑one album, holding the top of the chart for two weeks.

The event follows a strong tradition of high‑profile performers at Sandringham, which has hosted acts like Robbie Williams, Mariah Carey and Michael Bublé in previous years. The 2026 festival promises an unforgettable experience for music fans and heritage enthusiasts alike.
