The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame 2026 nominees have been revealed. This year’s shortlist includes Sade, Phil Collins, Mariah Carey, Joy Division and New Order, and Oasis. Rounding out the field are the Black Crowes, Iron Maiden, and Billy Idol, as well as first-time nominees Luther Vandross, Lauryn Hill, Wu-Tang Clan, Jeff Buckley, Melissa Etheridge, INXS, New Edition, Shakira, and P!NK. The inductees will be unveiled in April, with the official ceremony set to take place in the fall.

Artists are eligible for the Rock Hall 25 years after the release of their first commercial recording. Alicia Keys, the Strokes, and Yeah Yeah Yeahs were among those eligible this year but not nominated.

The Rock Hall’s class of 2025 included Cyndi Lauper, Outkast, Salt-N-Pepa, and the White Stripes.

*CORRECTION: An earlier version of this story incorrectly stated that the Rock Hall ceremony would take place in Cleveland. The location has not yet been announced. Additionally, the story wrongly suggested that Cher, a 2024 inductee, had been overlooked this year.*
