Fatboy Slim to headline Lytham Festival 2027

Superstar DJ and award-winning producer Fatboy Slim will head to the Lancashire coast next summer to headline the North West’s largest live music festival.

It has been announced that The Rockafeller Skank and Right Here Right Now star will bring his big beats and incredible live show to Lytham Festival on Friday July 2.

He will be supported on the night by special guest dance pop queen Becky Hill.

PayPal customers can access the pre-sale from 9am Tuesday.

The reveal comes hot on the heels of global megastar Robbie Williams selling out the Saturday night for next year’s festival in record time and with more headliners still to come, organisers are predicting another huge year for what is now one of the country’s biggest live music festivals.

Lytham Festival co-founder Peter Taylor said, "Fatboy Slim is simply an icon. This is a night I have wanted to schedule for a long time so I can’t wait to welcome him to Lytham.

“His shows are the stuff of legend and I have every confidence this will be a huge night filled with some of the best beats the world of electronic music has to offer.

“I’m also really looking forward to welcoming Becky Hill back to Lytham. It will be nine years since she was last here and her career just goes from strength to strength so it will be a pleasure to see her return to our stage."

“With Robbie Williams headline show selling out in record time and now adding Fatboy Slim to the mix, it is safe to say we are looking at a very exciting Lytham Festival 2027.”

One of electronic music’s most iconic figures, since the late 90s Fatboy Slim, aka Norman Cook, continues to create experiences for fans worldwide. This month marks the 30th anniversary of his debut album under the Fatboy Slim moniker, Better Living Through Chemistry. Featuring singles including Everybody Needs A 303, Punk to Funk and Going Out Of My Head, the seminal album saw Cook blend hip-hop, funk, house, reggae and indie.

Fast-forward three decades, and Cook remains as relevant today as he did when he first broke onto the scene. With his shoes off and his trademark Hawaiian shirt on, his reach spans the globe and with more than 100 performances at Glastonbury along with headline stages from Rio to Coachella and Ibiza to underground clubs, his trip to Lytham Festival will be a night of hedonistic energy.

Special guest will be Becky Hill, who first performed at Lytham Festival alongside Pete Tong in 2018. A two-time BRIT Award winning artist, Becky has exceeded 10 billion career streams to date, six UK Top 10 hits, a number 1 single, and her debut album Only Honest On The Weekend soared into the Top 10 on release and was certified Gold.

Alongside her success as a recording artist, Becky is also a formidable live performer, with exceptional sets at Glastonbury, Reading and Leeds, Parklife and Creamfields, alongside a sold-out UK and Ireland arena headline tour. Returning to Lytham with Fatboy Slim will mark another huge show for the singer who first came to prominence after reaching the semi-finals of TV’s The Voice UK back in 2012.
