The 2026 iHeartRadio Music Festival will stream live on Disney+ and Hulu from T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas on Friday, Sept. 18 and Saturday, Sept. 19, with broadcasts starting at 7:30 p.m. PT/10:30 p.m. ET, Billboard and iHeart confirm — How to Watch the 2026 iHeartRadio Music Festival Stream Online for Free – Billboard.
Billboard reports the festival lineup includes BTS, Cardi B, Benson Boone, LE SSERAFIM and more, and that the two-night broadcast begins at 7:30 p.m. PT/10:30 p.m. ET on both Sept. 18 and Sept. 19 on Disney+ and Hulu.
iHeart’s official festival page lists the event as the “official streaming destination” on Disney+ and Hulu and shows the same Sept. 18–19 dates and the T-Mobile Arena location in Las Vegas. iHeart also links to a tuned-in page for Disney+ and Hulu access.
For viewers without a current Disney+ or Hulu subscription, Billboard explains one free-access route: a new DirecTV Stream five-day free trial can include Disney+ and Hulu as part of its streaming packages, letting new customers watch the festival during the trial period.
If you plan to watch for free, check the start time for your time zone and set up any trial sign‑ups in advance — both Billboard and iHeart list the 10:30 p.m. ET/7:30 p.m. PT start. If you already subscribe to Disney+ or Hulu, tune in through those services; iHeart’s site links directly to a Disney+/Hulu tune-in page.
Billboard notes the festival will feature cross-genre headliners and special performances across the two nights; iHeart’s site carries the full lineup and festival details, including host Ryan Seacrest and on-site programming like the House of Music.
If you prefer other ways to stream events, background coverage of streaming-service trials and bundles can help you compare options before the festival starts — for example, an Amazon Music trial guide covers a common music-service signup, and recent coverage of live-event streams on other platforms shows how broadcast bundles sometimes work with pay-TV and streaming trials.
Below are the quick takeaways for watching: Disney+ and Hulu are the official live stream partners; the broadcast begins at 7:30 p.m. PT/10:30 p.m. ET on Sept. 18 and 19; and a DirecTV Stream five-day free trial is a commonly cited way to watch without an existing subscription.
