Brighton is set to relive one of its most iconic musical moments as Fatboy Slim brings back his legendary Big Beach Boutique series for a new edition in 2026. The British DJ and producer, real name Norman Cook, has announced three massive shows on his hometown beach on July 17th, 18th, and 19th. Titled Big Beach Boutique 7, the event marks a long-awaited return to the same pebbles that once hosted the historic 2002 edition, which attracted more than 250,000 people and became a defining moment in UK dance music culture.
The upcoming shows are part of the “On The Beach” concert series and will be ticketed, ensuring a safer and more controlled environment than the free-to-attend chaos of two decades ago. Pre-sale tickets open on November 6th 2025, followed by the general sale on November 7th.
Speaking about the announcement, Fatboy Slim said: “There’s no place like home. I’m back on Brighton Beach for three spectacular nights in July 2026. This is Big Beach Boutique 7.” For fans, it’s not only a concert but a pilgrimage — a return to where big beat culture and seaside euphoria collided to create one of electronic music’s most unforgettable parties.
The lineup beyond Fatboy Slim himself has yet to be revealed, but expectations are high. Given his past collaborations and the legacy of previous editions, Brighton’s beachfront is set to transform once again into a temple of rhythm, light, and shared nostalgia.
With its mix of local pride and global dance history, Big Beach Boutique 7 stands as one of the most anticipated events of 2026 — proof that even after decades behind the decks, Norman Cook still knows how to bring people together like few others can.
