Oasis, Collins, Idol Lead 2026 Rock Hall Induction Class

The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame’s class of 2026 features eight performer inductees—Phil Collins, Billy Idol, Iron Maiden, Joy Division/New Order, Oasis, Sade, Luther Vandross and Wu-Tang Clan—and 10 non-performer honorees in Early Influence, Musical Excellence and the Ahmet Ertegun Award. The induction ceremony is set for November 14 in Los Angeles at the Peacock Theater, with ABC and Disney+ coverage planned (live Disney+ broadcast for 2026 appears unlikely). Highlights include Collins’ solo induction on his first ballot, continued suspense around Liam Gallagher and possible New Order performances, and the inclusion of non-performer honorees Celia Cruz, Fela Kuti, Queen Latifah, MC Lyte, Gram Parsons, Linda Creed, Arif Mardin, Jimmy Miller, Rick Rubin and Ed Sullivan.
