Bruno Mars The Collaborations RSD 2026 is the headline release for this year’s global celebration of independent record shops. As the official 2026 Record Store Day Ambassador, Mars is releasing this exclusive vinyl compilation to highlight his most iconic musical partnerships. The album is scheduled for release on Saturday, April 18, 2026, serving as a career-spanning collection for both longtime fans and new collectors.
This compilation is being issued by Atlantic Records specifically for Record Store Day 2026. Unlike a standard studio album, this is an RSD Exclusive title, meaning it will be available only at participating independent record stores starting April 18.
The technical specifications for the release include:
The album serves as a curated retrospective of Mars’s work as a featured artist and collaborator. While the full sequence has not been fully published by all outlets, confirmed tracks and referenced artists indicate a comprehensive look at his chart-topping history.
The tracklist includes “Uptown Funk” with Mark Ronson, the 2025 hit “Die With a Smile” featuring Lady Gaga, and the viral 2024 single “APT.” with ROSÉ. Other referenced collaborations include his early work with B.o.B (“Nothin’ on You”) and Travie McCoy (“Billionaire”), as well as appearances by:
The timing of this release is significant for the 2026 music calendar. Bruno Mars The Collaborations RSD 2026 arrives just weeks after his latest studio album, The Romantic, which debuted on February 27, 2026.
Because the limited edition pressing is capped at 11,000 units, industry experts expect high demand. Collectors are encouraged to contact their local indie shops in mid-April to verify stock levels, as these titles are sold on a first-come, first-served basis. This release reinforces Mars’s role as Ambassador, driving foot traffic to local businesses during the most important day for the vinyl industry.
