In today’s article, we have prepared a brief recap of the last three festivals at which twenty one pilots performed.

The band’s performance at Pinkpop 2026 in Landgraaf, the Netherlands, was one of the highlights of the festival’s opening day. Taking the stage as the evening’s headliner on the South Stage, top delivered a career-spanning set that combined their biggest hits with brand-new material from the Breach era. The setlist featured songs such as “Overcompensate,” “The Contract,” “Heathens,” “Ride,” “Stressed Out,” and, as tradition dictates, the show-closing “Trees.” The duo’s trademark interaction with the audience was also on full display, with Tyler appearing in the crowd during “Ride,” much to the delight of fans. Although the festival had been dealing with high temperatures throughout the day, rain arrived over Landgraaf during the duo’s evening performance.

The closing moments of the concert, as well as performances of the newest songs from the Breach era, benefited particularly from the weather conditions, taking on an almost cinematic quality.
