Fatboy Slim has announced three huge shows next summer on Brighton Beach.
The DJ and producer will return to the beach where he performed a huge concert in 2002 that saw over 250,000 people show up. The shows will be on July 17, 18, and 19 next year.
According to a press release, “each date will be packed from start to finish with music, hijinks and joy, spanning from the early afternoon well into the night.”
The Instagram caption stated that, “There’s no place like home… I’m back on Brighton Beach for 3 spectacular nights in July 2026. THIS IS BIG BEACH BOUTIQUE 7…,”
Fatboy Slims legendary show Big Beach Boutique II was documented in his ‘Fatboy Slim: Right Here Right Now‘ film in 2023. The free event, which was spread over two days, was initially planned for a capacity of 40,000 people, but over 250,000 people turned up on Brighton Beach on day two.
When speaking about the film at the time of release, he said, “It has been wonderful with the fullness of time and some hindsight, to revisit such a seismic event in both mine and my hometown’s history. Warts and all, the story told in full…Watch, sleep, rave, repeat.”
As well as the huge shows on Brighton Beach in 2002, he has also headlined festivals such as Glastonbury and Creamfields.
Some of his hit songs such as ‘Praise You’, ‘Right Here, Right Now’ and ‘Weapon Of Choice’ have earned him BRIT Awards, MTV Awards and a Grammy.
Ahead of the shows next year in July, he will also kick of his ‘Acid Ballroom‘ UK shows in Birmingham at O2 Academy in February next year.
Fatboy Slim, real name Norman Cook, is set to play a Friday and Saturday night each in Birmingham, Manchester, London and Glasgow in February 2026.
He’ll start off at Birmingham’s O2 Academy on February 6 and 7, before heading to Manchester’s Aviva Studios on 13 and 14, then London’s Alexandra Palace on 20 and 21, and will conclude at Glasgow’s Barrowland on 27 and 28.
