ST. LOUIS, MO — Pride St. Louis is proud to announce the headline performers for PrideFest 2026, taking place Saturday, June 27, and Sunday, June 28 in downtown St. Louis. The event will feature legendary R&B icons En Vogue, multi-platinum pop duo Aly & AJ, and internationally acclaimed dance-pop sensation Icona Pop.
En Vogue remains one of the most successful and influential female vocal groups of all time. Since their debut in 1989, the group has sold more than 20 million records worldwide and produced enduring hits including “Hold On,” “My Lovin’ (You’re Never Gonna Get It),” “Free Your Mind,” “Whatta Man,” and “Don’t Let Go (Love).”
Named by Billboard as one of the most successful girl groups in music history, En Vogue has earned multiple Grammy nominations, American Music Awards, MTV Video Music Awards, and Soul Train Awards throughout a career spanning nearly four decades. Fresh off appearances at the NBA All-Star Game and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction broadcast, the iconic trio continues to deliver the powerhouse vocals and timeless performances that have made them a defining force in R&B and pop music.
Aly & AJ have captivated audiences for more than two decades with their unmistakable harmonies, heartfelt songwriting, and evolution from pop superstars to critically acclaimed independent artists. The platinum-selling sister duo first rose to fame with hits including “Potential Breakup Song,” “Chemicals React,” and “Rush,” while also becoming household names through their Disney Channel projects.
In recent years, Aly & AJ have earned widespread acclaim for their genre-blending sound that incorporates indie rock, folk, country, and pop influences. Their latest album, Silver Deliverer, continues a remarkable creative renaissance that has included sold-out tours, a headline performance at Los Angeles’ iconic Greek Theatre, and recognition from outlets including Billboard, Rolling Stone, and The Guardian.
Icona Pop, the Swedish duo comprised of Caroline Hjelt and Aino Jawo, became global pop stars with their generation-defining smash hit “I Love It” featuring Charli XCX, which has surpassed one billion streams and remains one of the most recognizable dance-pop anthems of the last decade.
Since their breakthrough, Icona Pop has headlined tours around the world, shared stages with artists including Miley Cyrus, One Direction, The Chainsmokers, and Avicii, and appeared everywhere from Saturday Night Live to the Trolls film franchise. Their latest album, Ritual, showcases the duo’s signature blend of euphoric dance music, emotional storytelling, and infectious energy that has made them festival favorites across the globe.
