One of the UK’s most iconic DJs Fatboy Slim has today announced a UK tour ‘Acid Ballroom’ set for February 2026. The 8-date tour will kick off in Birmingham before the DJ heads to Manchester’s Aviva Studios, London and Glasgow. The worldclass performer will host two-night residencies in some of the most iconic venues these cities have to offer such as London’s Alexandra Palace and Glasgow’s Barrowland.
In 2025, the man himself, Norman Cook celebrates 40 years in music. To mark the occasion, he is releasing an illustrated book ‘It Ain’t Over Till the Fatboy Sings’ packed full of thrills, spills, beats and repeats. This upcoming book is available to pre-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 tour, Fatboy Slim continues to delight and entertain the masses.
