The song is available now with the official video coming soon
Multi-platinum chart–topping global pop powerhouse Zara Larsson releases her heavily anticipated new single “Midnight Sun.” The energetic song is the title track of the Swedish pop star’s fourth international album, Midnight Sun, which is set for release on September 26th via Sommer House/Epic Records. The official music video for “Midnight Sun” is set to premiere soon.
The album is available with an exclusive run of merchandise and physical product, including limited edition signed CDs and autographed vinyl.
Created over the last year with frequent collaborator MNEK, alongside producers Margo XS and Zhone, as well as songwriter Helena Gao—Zara’s latest is a true tour-de-force. The ten track album ripples with confidence, as it’s storytelling bursts with truth and vulnerability, plumbing the depth and growth of Zara’s artistry and journey over nearly 20 years in the public eye. It is unafraid to show all sides of the 27-year-old: lovestruck, wistful, ambitious, cocky, flippant, and uncertain, often in the same breath. The story begins with “Midnight Sun,” the first song written for the album.
“I really am proud of my Swedish pop heritage, so I wanted to write about a Swedish summer where the sun never goes down,” says Zara on both the album and its hypnotizing title track. “I wanted the whole album to feel like it’s a summer night and it never ends. And it doesn’t matter if it’s December: the summer night will be there for you. It’s waiting for you, it will come back for you, and you will come back for it.”
Alongside the new single, tickets go on sale to the public for the European headlining leg of her Midnight Sun Tour, which begins October 28th in Munich and wraps November 28th in Stockholm. This follows news of her upcoming February 2026 Australia/New Zealand dates with OneRepublic and her 2025 North American tour with Tate McRae, which begins on August 4th and culminates with back-to-back shows in Los Angeles on September 26-27, in line with the release of Zara’s album.
Larsson recently kicked off the new era with the confident and rowdy “Pretty Ugly,” alongside an incredible music video directed by Charlotte Rutherford (PinkPanthress, Charli XCX, Ashnniko), and choreographed by Zoi Tatopoulos (FKA Twigz)—fierce, feral, and completely unapologetic.
