Eat, Sleep, Rave, Repeat: Fatboy Slim Has Added a Headline Sydney Show to His 2025 Australian Tour
If you're not heading to Bowral to see the UK DJ at a winery, you can now catch the dance-music icon at Roundhouse.
If you've been hoping to dance like Christopher Walken, pretend you're in Cruel Intentions, or just get transported back to the late 90s and early 00s when Fatboy Slim returns to Australia in 2025, and you're in Sydney, you might've been making out-of-town plans. When he dropped his latest tour dates, the British dance-music legend's only New South Wales appearance was in Bowral. Thanks to a just-announced new addition to his Australian itinerary, however, you can now hit up Roundhouse in the Harbour City for one night only as well.
For the third time in the 2020s, Fatboy Slim is heading to Australia to break out 'Right Here, Right Now', 'The Rockafeller Skank', 'Praise You' and plenty more dance-floor fillers. After touring the country in 2020 and 2023, he's returning in March 2025 on what's now a six-stop trip, four of which will get him spinning tunes in wineries — with his Sydney gig his only indoor show.
For the NSW capital, he's slotted in Tuesday, March 18, a few days after he'll play Centennial Vineyards in Bowral. The tour kicks off in Perth, at the only other show that isn't at a vineyard, on Friday, March 14. After Bowral and Sydney, Fatboy Slim is then off to Peter Lehmann Wines in the Barossa Valley, Mt Duneed Estate in Geelong and Sirromet Wines in Mount Cotton.
While DJ Seinfeld, CC:DISCO! and Jennifer Loveless are supporting the UK legend at his other five gigs, special guests for his exclusive headline Sydney show haven't yet been revealed.
Norman Cook has been making music since the 80s, but took on the name Fatboy Slim in the mid-90s, starting with 1996 record Better Living Through Chemistry. His 1998 album You've Come a Long Way, Baby was the club soundtrack to end the 20th century — a staple of every 90s teen's CD collection, too.
As for 2000's Halfway Between the Gutter and the Stars, it gave the world 'Weapon of Choice' and its iconic Walken-starring (and Spike Jonze-directed) video. Fatboy Slim's discography also spans 2004 album Palookaville and 2013 single 'Eat, Sleep, Rave, Repeat'.
You might not be able to dance along the walls when Cook hits the decks — but you'll want to thanks to his big beat sound. Indeed, alongside the Chemical Brothers, The Prodigy, Basement Jaxx, The Propellerheads and Crystal Method, he helped bring the style to mainstream fame.If you've seen Cook live before — or the epic live video from his 2020 Melbourne gig at the Sidney Myer Music Bowl that's notched up more than 3.2-million views — then you'll know that any Fatboy Slim tour is always news to get excited about right about now.
