“There’s no place like home… I’m back on Brighton Beach for several spectacular nights in July 2026. THIS IS BIG BEACH BOUTIQUE 7…”
Fatboy Slim
24 Years
In The Making
It’s been 24 years since the original Big Beach Boutique took place, drawing around 40,000 people to Brighton Beach. A year later, in 2002, Fatboy Slim returned for Big Beach Boutique II, a free open-air concert that attracted a record-breaking crowd of more than 250,000 people.
Described as “the biggest event the UK has ever seen,” the audience was over four times larger than expected and effectively doubled Brighton’s population for the day.
In 2026, Fatboy Slim returns for three shows packed with the same energy, but with a more intimate crowd, bringing his big beats back to the pebbles on his hometown’s finest stretch of beach.
Spotlight
-
For over two decades, Groove Armada has been established as one of the planet’s best-loved and biggest-selling dance acts. Andy Cato and Tom Findlay met in London in the mid-90s, starting out with a series of club nights that led to their first releases on the pioneering East London label, Tummy Touch.
Their rise to global recognition was fuelled by the downbeat anthem ‘At the River’, which helped their debut albums, Northern Star and the million-selling Vertigo, become the soundtrack to a generation. With hits like ‘Superstylin’’ and ‘I See You Baby’, they’ve garnered Grammy and Brit nominations and sold out shows from Sydney to Moscow. Whether they are playing sweat-soaked basements or headlining massive festival stages like Boomtown and Wilderness, Andy and Tom have always blurred the lines between genres with total ease.
