LG Electronics today announced a national partnership with the 2026 iHeartRadio Music Festival, bringing LG Radio+, LG's free ad-supported audio streaming service, to one of the country's premier live music events. The two-night festival takes place September 18–19 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

The partnership gives festival audiences and music fans across the country a new way to connect with LG Radio+, building on LG’s existing content integration with iHeartMedia, which earlier this year expanded LG Radio+ to include more than 850 live iHeartRadio stations, digital-only stations and iHeartMedia’s podcast catalog.

On-Site Fan Engagement at the House of Music

At the festival, LG Radio+ will be featured at the iHeartRadio House of Music on both evenings of the event, where DJ shoutouts will direct fans to scan a QR code for a chance to enter LG’s sweepstakes. Fans at home can also enter via social and on-device digital channels for a chance to win prizes including LG TVs and xboom speakers.  

The iHeartRadio House of Music is a free, mixed-reality immersive experience open to the public outside T-Mobile Arena from 4 p.m. to 1 a.m. PT on both days of the festival, featuring interactive rooms inspired by artists from the main stage festival.

“The iHeartRadio Music Festival is one of the biggest moments in music each year, and it is the perfect stage to bring LG Radio+ to life beyond the screen,” said Matthew Durgin, VP of MS Content and Services, LG Electronics USA. “Our partnership with iHeartMedia has already made it easier for LG Smart TV users to access the radio stations, podcasts and music they love, all in one place and for free. Taking that connection into a live festival setting is a natural next step.”

Reaching Music Fans on the Air

For fans who cannot make it to Las Vegas, LG Radio+ is already bringing the festival energy closer to home. LG Radio+ is currently featured in on-air and digital promotional programming across approximately 30 broadcast radio stations in drivable markets across California, Arizona, Nevada and Utah. Station formats include CHR, Rhythmic CHR, AC, Hot AC, Country, Hip-Hop and Alternative, reaching music fans across a broad range of listening preferences through September 19, 2026.

“Our partnership with LG Radio+ has been a meaningful extension of iHeartRadio’s reach, putting our content directly in front of LG Smart TV audiences,” said Michael Biondo, President, Business Development and Strategic Partnerships, iHeartMedia. “Bringing LG Radio+ to the iHeartRadio Music Festival creates a full-circle moment, connecting the digital listening experience we have built together with the energy of a live event that fans look forward to all year.”

LG Radio+ and iHeartMedia: A Partnership Built on Audio

Earlier in 2026, LG expanded the service through a partnership with iHeartMedia, the leading audio media company in America, reaching nine out of ten Americans monthly. Available exclusively on LG Smart TVs running webOS 6.0 and above, the service gives listeners free access to iHeartRadio’s vast library of live radio, digital stations and podcasts. Alongside content from Stingray Music, which brings more than 200 curated music channels and hundreds of thousands of songs to the platform, LG Radio+ offers LG Smart TV users a broad range of free audio content in one place.

LG continues to elevate the user experience with a broad range of content and an intuitive user interface, making it effortless to explore and enjoy audio entertainment. To learn more about how LG is enhancing the audio experience, visit lg.com/us.
