Gorillaz will headline the landmark 20th anniversary of INmusic festival!

Virtual icons Gorillaz bring their genre-bending sound and spectacular visuals to INmusic festival #18!

Created by musician Damon Albarn and artist Jamie Hewlett, Gorillaz consists of singer 2D, bassist Murdoc Niccals, drummer Russel Hobbs and Japanese guitar prodigy Noodle. The BRIT and Grammy-winning virtual band formed following a collision of mishaps, meetings and pure luck to blow up a pre-digital world with their colourful backstory and ground-breaking virtual ways. Based at Kong Studios, Gorillaz settled into a life of musical innovation with an eye-wateringly exciting roster of collaborators, a list that includes musical legends, geniuses and future stars from Elton John to Little Simz, MF Doom to Jean-Michel Jarre, Grace Jones to slowthai, Kali Uchis to Sidiki Diabaté, plus so many more. 

With eight albums to their name, ‘Gorillaz’ (2001), ‘Demon Days’ (2005), ‘Plastic Beach’ (2010), ‘The Fall’ (2011), ‘Humanz’ (2017), ‘The Now Now’ (2018), ‘Song Machine: Season One – Strange Timez’ (2020) and ‘Cracker Island’ (2023), Gorillaz is a truly global phenomenon, achieving success in entirely new and unique ways, touring the world from San Diego to Syria, Montevideo to Manchester and winning numerous awards including the coveted Jim Henson Creativity Honor. The band’s recent acclaimed run of London shows to celebrate 25 years of Gorillaz saw The Guardian declare: ‘Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett’s cartoon band are still riveting and relevant’, with London’s Evening Standard adding ‘Albarn and Hewlett are still legions ahead of the pack’, and The Observer headline proclaim ‘Gorillaz stun in star-studded show of lush visuals and borderless music.’ 

As they prepare for the release of their highly anticipated new album ‘The Mountain’ in March of 2026, Gorillaz are set to bring their immersive audiovisual experience to INmusic festival #18, promising one of the most unforgettable performances in the festival’s 20-year history. INmusic festival #18 will take place at Jarun lake isles in Zagreb from June 22nd to 24th, 2026. Three-day festival tickets for this special 20th-anniversary edition of INmusic festival are available via the festival’s official webshop for only 119 EUR (+ transaction fees), as well as seven-day camping tickets priced at 59 EUR (+ transaction fees).
