Rita Ora and Marshmello to Qstock!
Internationally popular British singer/songwriter Rita Ora and American DJ/producer Marshmello will take to the main stage at Qstock in Oulu next summer.
Pop superstar Rita Ora, who has racked up billions of streams, is known for her energetic stage performances and powerful songs such as Praising You (feat. Fatboy Slim), You Only Love Me, Anywhere, and Let You Love Me. Her latest album, You & I, topped the UK indie album chart. Her fourth album is set to be released this year.
Marshmello, who made his international breakthrough ten years ago with his debut album Joytime, has graced the world’s biggest stages and worked with several global stars. The EDM giant, who boldly combines different genres of electronic music, was awarded at the Billboard Music Awards for his gaming world concert Marshmello Fortnite Extended Set, and his 2022 album Shockwave earned him a Grammy nomination. His hits include Happier, Silence, and Friends.
Marshmello will perform at Qstock on Friday and Rita Ora on Saturday.
British artist Ava Joe, whose soulful voice has brought her onto the verge of her own international breakthrough, has also confirmed her appearance at Qstock.
New Finnish acts confirmed for the festival include Behm, Ahti, MELO, Nenerchy, Costi, Charon, Portion Boys, and Oulu-based Radiopuhelimet, who have performed at the event every year since its inception.
Ticket sales for Qstock have been brisker than in previous years. S-discounted two-day tickets and S-discounted Saturday tickets are already sold out. All other ticket types are still available.
Qstock will be held in the Kuusisaari and Raatti area of Oulu on July 24–25, 2026. The event has been sold out twelve times in a row and has established itself as one of Finland’s largest festivals, attracting 40,000 festivalgoers over two days.
