Fatboy Slim confirmed for Kent open air gig in summer 2026
In 2025, the man himself, Norman Cook celebrated 40 years in music
Dreamland Margate has today announced that the renowned DJ, musician and producer Fatboy Slim will join the Summer 2026 line-up of outdoor shows on the iconic Scenic Stage, playing a headline show on Friday 28 August.
Norman Cook AKA Fatboy Slim is a pioneer of the 1990s big beat genre. Known for his unique blend of funk, acid house, hip-hop, and rock, he is a mainstay headliner in the electronic music scene and one of the world’s most in-demand DJs. His phenomenal shows are amongst the most celebrated around.
In 2025, the man himself, Norman Cook celebrated 40 years in music. To mark the occasion, he has released an illustrated book ‘It Ain’t Over Till the Fatboy Sings’ packed full of thrills, spills, beats and repeats. This book is available to order here. Reflecting on four decades in the industry, Norman says: ‘This year I’ll have been in showbiz for 40 years, and to celebrate that we thought we’d create a big book full of stuff which I’ve kept over the years of my long and chequered career… from pre-Housemartins, through Beats international, Freak power, and of course Fatboy Slim. You’ll see what I’ve kept and what it all means, in one big, beautiful book.’
In this year of celebrations, Cook also hit a monumental milestone as he played his 100th Glastonbury set back in June. Now, with the announcement of his 2026 UK dates including Dreamland Margate, Fatboy Slim continues to delight and entertain the masses.
