A Grammy-winning music icon has announced his first UK performance in a decade at a festival near Cambridgeshire.

Ricky Martin will headline a major summer show at Sandringham Estate in Norfolk on Saturday, August 22 as part of the HeritageLive Festival.

Having sold more than 95 million records, he is known for his global hits including Livin' La Vida Loca, She Bangs, María and The Cup of Life.

Giles Cooper of HeritageLive Festival commented: "We're so excited to have Ricky Martin perform as part of our 2026 line-up.

"At HeritageLive, we've always aimed to bring the very biggest names to the stage across a wide range of genres, and this show is a perfect example of that.

"The rise of Latin music as a global force has been phenomenal, and we're thrilled to welcome one of the true pioneers who helped bring it to a massive international audience.

"It's set to be an incredible party for our Saturday night at Sandringham."

Mr Martin will be joined by Sugababes, Olly Alexander, and Sophie Castillo for what organisers promise will be a "Latin pop party".

This Sandringham show is his only UK date announced for 2026.

The singer joins previously announced Sandringham headliners Lionel Richie, who will perform on Thursday, August 20, and Eric Clapton, who will close the weekend on Sunday, August 23.
