Nottingham, get ready for Fatboy Tim!

📅 4 April 2025
Doors - 7pm

SINCE 2002! INCREDIBLE is the only word to describe Tim - not only does he look like Norman, perform like Norman and generally misbehave on stage like Norman, but he is a totally world class DJ act in his own right.

Squint your eyes and the experience is still just as mind-blowing As a tribute DJ to Fatboy Slim, Tim embodies the electrifying energy and infectious beats that have defined Fatboy Slim's legendary career. He captures the essence of Norman's music and performances, delivering high-octane sets that keep audiences on their feet and fully immersed in the experience. Through meticulous attention to detail Tim's sets incorporate signature tracks, samples, and mixing techniques synonymous with Fatboy Slim. Highlights so far have included All Back to Minehead, Glastonbury Pikes Ibiza, Gatecrasher, Surfstock, Love Riot The Masked Ball, Boardmasters, Mucky Weekender, Hed Kandi and The Great Estate to name just a few. Tim has also DJ'd with Calvin Harris, Solado, Kissy Sell Out, Just Jack and Lisa Lashes and loads more and has an amazing year planned.
