Calvin Harris's upcoming homecoming show at Scotland's national stadium on Saturday, August 1, will be broadcast live by BBC Music. The performance, described as a landmark event, will feature a career-spanning set from the acclaimed DJ and producer.
Jonathan Rothery, head of BBC Popular Music TV, expressed enthusiasm for bringing the show to audiences across the UK. "There are few artists who have shaped contemporary dance music quite like Calvin Harris," Rothery stated. "We are delighted to bring his landmark homecoming show from Glasgow to audiences right across the UK, giving millions of fans the chance to be part of what promises to be a truly special night."
Tom Mackay, president of Sony Music Vision, echoed this sentiment, calling Harris "one of the defining artists of dance music." He added that the performance "captures a truly special moment in his career." The broadcast is part of the BBC's broader "Summer of Music 2026" initiative, which will also include coverage of UK festivals, documentaries on artists like Madonna, Wham!, and David Bowie, and performances from other musicians such as Charli XCX and Sam Smith.
The BBC has a history of covering Calvin Harris, from his early performances at Radio 1 events to multiple appearances at Radio 1's Big Weekend.
