Fatboy Slim, the legendary and pioneering force in electronic music known for fusing genres and igniting dancefloors across the globe, is heading back to Australia in March 2027 for a run of tour dates across Fremantle, Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne and he\u2019s mixing up the venues! No two cities will look or feel the same.<\/p>\n
Forget the festival mainstage. Forget the sweaty superclub. This tour of Australia sees Norman Cook take things back to his roots, getting closer to his fans in more personal, underground and urban outdoor spaces.<\/p>\n
\u201cFor this tour to Australia I wanted to get up close with my people, play venues with real atmosphere and have a proper party!,\u201d says Fatboy Slim. \u201cBridges, rivers, parks, old railway sheds \u2013 if it\u2019s a bit weird and the sound system\u2019s loud enough, I\u2019m there.\u201d<\/p>\n
After a massive 2026 that has already included spots on the Quasar stage at Coachella, four huge nights on Brighton Beach and a closing spot at Rock in Rio in Brazil, in March 2027 Fatboy Slim will set up his decks for an intimate residency inside the iconic heritage bays of Carriageworks in Sydney. In Melbourne, he\u2019ll take over The Underpass \u2013 a striking new urban location beneath the elevated freeway in West Melbourne, where monumental concrete and steel set the stage for a truly unique experience. In Brisbane he\u2019ll turn the South Bank Forecourt into a riverside dancefloor for the return of On The Banks and in WA he\u2019ll perform under the stars and by the ocean at Esplanade Park in Fremantle. Four cities, four completely different vibes, all with the same genre-fusing troublemaker behind the decks.<\/p>\n
Alongside global hits such as \u201cRight Here Right Now\u201d, \u201cPraise You\u201d and \u201cWeapon of Choice\u201d fans can expect to hear recent releases \u201cSatisfaction Skank\u201d a mash-up of his own \u201cThe Rockafeller Skank\u201d and The Rolling Stones\u2019 \u201cSatisfaction\u201d, recorded with their blessing, and current single with Brazilian DJ Carola and Felix Da Housecat, \u201cFunk Drunk\u201d.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s Fatboy Slim as fans have rarely seen him: smaller venues but the same huge energy and unmistakable mix of breakbeats, funk and cheeky chaos that\u2019s soundtracked countless clubs, beaches, festivals \u2013 and the occasional igloo and fish n chip shop \u2013 for over three decades.<\/p>\n
Get in early, these venues have huge vibes but limited capacity!<\/p>\n

ABOUT FATBOY SLIM
Fatboy Slim, aka Norman Cook, entered the UK acid house scene in the \u201890s. Early success came with the release of hit singles \u2018Everybody Needs a 303\u2019 and \u2018Going Out of My Head\u2019, taken from Better Living Through Chemistry. Soon after came \u2018The Rockafeller Skank\u2019, a precursor for hit album You\u2019ve Come A Long Way Baby, which delivered his first UK #1 in \u2018Praise You\u2019, as well as club banger \u2018Right Here Right Now\u2019, which peaked at #2. Halfway Between The Gutter And The Stars followed, featuring \u2018Weapon of Choice\u2019, with an unmissable video directed by Spike Jonze and starring Christopher Walken dancing in an empty hotel lobby. It\u2019s widely regarded as one of the best music videos of all time, having won several awards, including a Grammy for Best Music Video.<\/p>\n
Cook took things to another level again with the undeniably huge \u2018Eat, Sleep, Rave, Repeat\u2019, and more recently with massive singles like \u2018Where U Iz\u2019, \u2018Boom F**king Boom\u2019, \u2018Praise You (Purple Disco Machine Extended Remix)\u2019, Rita Ora \u2018Praising You (feat. Fatboy Slim)\u2019 and 2024\u2019s \u2018Role Model (feat.Dan Diamond and Luca Guerrieri)\u2019, check out the official video here.<\/p>\n
In 2022, Fatboy Slim released \u2018Right Here, Right Then\u2019, a celebration of the 20th anniversary of the infamous Big Beach Boutique (album out now via BMG Australia \u2013 here) and 2024\u2019s Palookaville (Deluxe).<\/p>\n
With 10 MTV VMAs, two Brit Awards and a Grammy, numerous high-profile Ibiza residencies, a Beats 1 Radio Show, a record 20 consecutive years playing at Glastonbury, and even a show on The Great Wall of China, it\u2019s no surprise Fatboy Slim has a reputation as one of the most consistently popular DJs and producers on the planet. A party lover through and through, Cook is fuelled by the joy of his audience, which becomes a feedback loop of energy at every show that sends the vibe through the roof.<\/p>\n
20 years after those historic, era-defining gatherings, Norman continues to push the envelope and remain one of the most in demand DJ\u2019s and purveyor of quality beats in the world.<\/p>\n
