Calvin Harris Leads New Names Added To Bilbao BBK Live 2026

Calvin Harris heads up the latest wave of artists announced for Bilbao BBK Live 2026, joining an already stacked lineup for the festival’s 20th anniversary edition next summer.

Returning to the stunning Mount Kobetamendi from 9–11 July, the Basque Country festival continues to cement itself as one of Europe’s most eclectic music events, blending global icons with rising international talent and some of the most exciting voices emerging from Spain and the wider region.

Among the newly confirmed names, Calvin Harris arrives armed with one of the most formidable catalogues in modern dance music. With global hits including ‘One Kiss’, ‘We Found Love’, ‘How Deep Is Your Love’, ‘Sweet Nothing’ and ‘This Is What You Came For’, the superstar producer is set to deliver a huge festival set overlooking the Bilbao skyline.

Also joining the lineup is influential Spanish artist Dellafuente, whose genre-blurring sound draws from folk traditions while pushing contemporary dance music into new territory. A major cultural figure in Spain, his specially conceived summer performance promises to be one of the festival’s defining moments.

Elsewhere, UK breakout act Westside Cowboy arrive amid a rapid rise that has seen them selling out shows across the UK, while viral alt-pop artist hemlocke springs brings the energy of her debut album the apple tree under the sea to Mount Kobetamendi.

Further additions include Spanish indie outfit La Paloma and fast-rising Basque group BARRRK, alongside club-focused stage takeovers including Vampirina Club by Metrika & D.Basto and Hotcore Party: Taichu, with the Argentine artist set to close a stage with a full audio-visual show.

The new names join a huge lineup already announced for the festival, including Robbie Williams, David Byrne, Lily Allen, IDLES, Interpol, CMAT, Charlotte de Witte, Alabama Shakes, Belle and Sebastian, Paris Paloma, horsegiirL, TOMORA (Tom Rowlands of The Chemical Brothers + AURORA), Richie Hawtin, Fatoumata Diawara, Apparat and many more.

Celebrating its 20th anniversary, Bilbao BBK Live continues to stand apart from the European festival circuit — bringing together music, arts, culture and club programming in a spectacular hilltop setting overlooking the city. Just minutes from Bilbao itself, the festival has become a destination event for fans seeking both global names and boundary-pushing discoveries.
