GRAMMY®-nominated pop superstar Zara Larssonkeeps the global party going with Midnight Sun: Girls Trip, a collection of remixes and collaborations that gives new life to her already famously vibrant songs. Revisiting each track from her breakthrough album Midnight Sun, Zara invites a worldwide all-woman cast of friends and faves to an inclusive celebration that crosses borders, genres, and vibes for an unforgettable excursion into free-wheeling self-expression.
The artists joining Zara on the set span diverse sounds and countries of origin, and range from absolute icons to rising stars to indie tastemakers: Shakira, Robyn, Tyla, PinkPantheress, Kehlani, JT, Madison Beer, Emilia, Helena Gao, Margo XS, BAMBII, Malibu, and Eli. Watch visualizers for every song HERE now, and stream or purchase Midnight Sun: Girls Trip right HERE via Epic Records / Sommer House.
The album opens on a new version of “Midnight Sun”that continues the creative kinship of Zara and PinkPantheress over a beat that blends the former’s radiant dance-pop with the latter’s propulsive UK garage-inflected sound. A song later, Kehlani joins for a lush R&B take on the romantic “Blue Moon,” before JT drops a blistering verse on the rowdy, Margo XS-remixed “Pretty Ugly.” Later, Shakira helps transform “Eurosummer”into a jet-setting club cut, Tyla doubles the diva heat on “Hot & Sexy,” and Robyn brings her legendary presence to “Puss Puss.” Zara sprinkles shiny new vocals throughout.
In truth, as the songs shape-shift through styles, tempos, textures, and even languages, there’s never a dull moment on Midnight Sun: Girls Trip. As she wrangled an international array of top-tier talent, Zara worked closely with Margo XS and MNEK to craft the project — two members of the tight, trusted team with whom she created 2025’s original Midnight Sun (also including Gao and Zhone), an album that was not only her most authentic and expressive yet, but which has since racked up nearly universal praise.
Zara’s runaway success in the wake of Midnight Sunmade Girls Trip possible. In February, she scored a career-first GRAMMY® nomination for “Midnight Sun”(Best Dance Pop Recording), while also in the midst of what Billboard called “a major Hot 100 comeback.” Now the #24 artist in the world on Spotify, she currently has four singles on the Billboard Hot 100: the viral “Lush Life”(peaking at #35, video approaching 1 billion views), “Midnight Sun” (#39), and her earlier PinkPantheressteam-up “Stateside” (#6), which hit #1 on the Billboard Global 200 and Spotify’s Global Top 50 after U.S. figure-skating champ Alysa Liu did a routine to the song during the Winter Olympics. This week, Tyla’s aptly titled “She Did It Again” featuring Zara entered at #59.
This past Wednesday, Zara was honored with the Breakthrough Award at Billboard’s Women in Musicceremony. In an interview that came out this month celebrating the news, Billboard called Midnight Sun the “album that’s made her a new household name in the main pop girl zeitgeist.” Their words joined similar raves from outlets including PAPER, Rolling Stone, VOGUE, GQ, Pitchfork, NYLON, and more. She just scored five American Music Awards nominations, too: Breakthrough Pop Artist, Breakthrough Album of the Year, Song of the Summer, Collaboration of the Year, and Social Song of the Year.
Zara also won praise for her recently wrapped, fully sold-out first North American headlining tour. Inspired by her U.S. breakthrough, The New Yorker published a profile this month titled “Zara Larsson Gets Her Flowers,” noting “on the Midnight Sun tour, the Swedish artist makes a comeback that feels like a debut.” In a victory lap of sorts, Zara discusses her whirlwind year in a new in-depth episode of Call Her Daddy.
Showing no signs of slowing down, Zara will embark next month on a jam-packed summer festival run that includes Lollapalooza Chicago, BBC’s Radio 1 Big Weekend, and a staggering series of European dates. In September, the Midnight Sun Tour officially continues — first with a just-announced concert at Los Angeles’ beloved Greek Theatre, and then with an Australia/New Zealand arena leg. Presale for the latter sold out in less than 2 hours, and more than 6 months in advance. Find her full itinerary below.
If Midnight Sun was inspired by the feeling of an endless summer night in Zara’s native Stockholm, then Midnight Sun: Girls Trip is what happens when that night rolls into an infinite season of pure pop energy where everyone is invited. As Zara herself recently noted, “This is just the beginning of Girls Trip!!!”

About Zara Larsson
“Summer isn’t over yet” is more than a lyric from Zara Larsson’s perennial hit “Midnight Sun” — it’s a statement of purpose. A decade after dropping her first international single, 2015’s “Lush Life,” the GRAMMY-nominated Swedish sensation is taking her rightful place in the zeitgeist as a Main Pop Girl. In 2026, while her sold-out tour raged onward, she lodged three songs in the Hot 100: the recently viral “Lush Life” (#35, video nearing 1B views), “Midnight Sun” (#39), and PinkPantheress collab “Stateside” (#6, and #1 on the Global 200). All of that followed hot on the heels of Midnight Sun, Zara’s fourth, truest, and most vibrant album to date, made with a tight trusted team (MNEK, Margo XS, Helena Gao, Zhone) and unafraid to show all sides of the star: lovestruck, wistful, ambitious, flippant, fun, uncertain — often in the same breath. If that radiant LP was inspired by the feeling of an endless summer night in Stockholm, then the globe-trotting remix album, Midnight Sun: Girls Trip, is what happens when that night rolls into an infinite season of pure pop energy where everyone is invited. For the reinvented set, Zara opens up her acclaimed album and shouts, “GET IN, GIRL!” to a worldwide all-woman lineup including icons like Shakira, Robyn, Tyla, Kehlani, PinkPantheress, JT, and more. The collection crosses borders, genres, and vibes for a series of unforgettable musical moments of authentic self-expression, diverse artistry, and total hands-up, top-down, open-air freedom.
