The 2017 iHeartRadio Festival took place in Las Vegas this past weekend and as usual, featured a line up that included some of the biggest names in music from the past year. Whether you’re into rap, rock, pop, country, hip hop, or a little big of everything, the iHeartRadio Festival had you covered.
Here are just a few of the must-see moments that took place during the two-day festival.
Returning to the iHeartRadio Festival, Miley Cyrus gave fans a preview of her new album, out this Friday. The popstar performed her lead single “Malibu”, as well as “Younger Now” and oldie but goodie “Party In The USA.” Miley wasn’t the only Cyrus to perform at iHeartRadio. Little sister Noah also took the stage during the day at the iHeartRadio Village concert.
Those vocals though. #iHeartFestival pic.twitter.com/gUUElUMsdA

Three members of One Direction took the stage this weekend at iHeartRadio, albeit as solo acts. Harry Styles was first up and performed on Saturday night. During his exciting set, Styles performed songs from his debut album and ignited a Circus Ringleader fantasy in us that we didn’t think was possible.
Dear @Harry_Styles, please sing this to us everyday. Love, everyone. #iHeartFestival pic.twitter.com/UF2ZAdBRYJ

The iHeartRadio Festival was mainly pop-focused, but that doesn’t mean it didn’t rock. Kings of Leon took the stage on Day 2 and performed some of their newest tracks and biggest singles, including the one that started it all.

Playing at the iHeartRadio Festival Village, Halsey performed tracks from her 2017 album Hopeless Fountain Kingdom and some obscure song called “Closer.” Maybe you’ve heard it once…or twice…
.@halsey says this song SLAPS and we totally agree! #iHeartVillage pic.twitter.com/qCQnR5679b

Considering how huge Julia Michaels debut single “Issues” has been in 2017, we should be sick of it by now. We should be. But we’re not.
We’ve got ‘Issues’… it’s how much we LOVE @imjmichaels voice!

How many times have we watched Pink perform and thought, ugh, could she just put *some* effort into her show? So boring. Nothing exciting to see here.
How does she do it?! #iHeartFestival pic.twitter.com/lgrU5Q0KLC
