BBC Radio 1’s Big Weekend is back this year, and the artists performing on Saturday have just been announced!
The popular music festival is coming back to Herrington Country Park from Friday, May 22nd, to Sunday, May 24th, for three days of performances.
The initial list of performers was revealed last week, and music icon Fatboy Slim will be the main act on opening night. Friday’s lineup also features Sonny Fodera, Danny Howard, and Ewan McVicar.
Zara Larsson, Louis Tomlinson, and Lola Young are set to perform on the main stage this Saturday.
They’ll be joined by Nothing But Thieves, Skye Newman and Ellie Goulding.
Tickets for the Friday Dance Party are now available. Tickets for Saturday and Sunday will be released at 5pm on Wednesday. Like last year, ticket distribution will prioritize certain locations.
