The Tokyo-area offshoot of Fatboy Slim's original Brighton beach party returns to the shores of not-so-scenic Makuhari this June for another dose of bikinis and big beats. Big Beach Festival ranks as one of the biggest dance events of the year, even if much of the assembled crowd is too busy cavorting and ogling to pay much attention to the music. That said, this year's lineup is looking particularly strong: Norman Cook himself will be headlining, with a live set from fellow '90s dance heroes Basement Jaxx and big-name DJs including Sasha, Erol Alkan and Maya Janes Coles. Here's the complete lineup...
Erol Alkan, Ellen Allien, Banvox, Basement Jaxx, Maya Jane Coles, Fatboy Slim, Hot Since 82, Damian Lazarus, DJ Marc Panther, Nervo, Shinichi Osawa, Red Bull Thre3style Showcase (DJ Kentaro, Four Color Zack, DJ 8man, DJ Iku, DJ Tuskey), Sasha, Sekitova, Tom Staar, System of Survival
Open June 1
Time Doors 10am. Gig 11am (until 8.30pm)
