The concert is part of the wider HeritageLive Festival, which runs from 19 to 23 August 2026, including previously announced headliners Lionel Richie and Eric Clapton.
In a news release, Giles Cooper, managing director of HeritageLive, celebrated the announcement, writing: “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.”
Giles Cooper, managing director of HeritageLive, said he was “thrilled” with this year’s line-up
Describing the rise in Latin music as “phenomenal”, he added: “We’re thrilled to welcome one of the true pioneers who helped bring it to a massive international audience.”
Martin joins a long list of welcomed stars who have previously taken to the Sandringham stage. Last year saw music legends Mariah Carey, Stereophonics, and Michael Bublé perform, drawing in over 100,000 attendees.
The GRAMMY Award-winning global music icon is best known for his 1999 pop hit “Livin’ la Vida Loca”, which hit No. 1 in over 20 countries.
More recently, Martin surprised fans with an unannounced cameo at Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl Halftime show, with Lady Gaga also serving vocals.
