Following a massive debut edition this summer that brought The Cure, Gorillaz, and Moby to Plovdiv, Bulgaria, PHILLGOOD festival has announced electronic music pioneers The Chemical Brothers as the second headliner for its 2027 event. Taking place from 16-18 July 2027 at the scenic Rowing Canal, the festival returns to Europe's oldest continuously inhabited city for its highly anticipated second edition.
The Chemical Brothers—comprising Ed Simons and Tom Rowlands—will close the second night of the festival on Saturday, 17 July 2027. Legendary pop icon Robbie Williams has already been confirmed as the first headliner, with a third major headliner and further international acts still to be revealed. Renowned worldwide for their transcendent audiovisual live sets, The Chemical Brothers bring nearly 35 years of iconic hits, including "Block Rockin' Beats," "Hey Boy Hey Girl," "Galvanize," and "Got to Keep On," alongside acclaim for their latest studio release, For That Beautiful Feeling.
Set against the backdrop of Plovdiv—a destination combining thousands of years of Thracian, Roman, and Ottoman heritage with a vibrant contemporary arts scene—PHILLGOOD offers a unique cultural getaway for international festival-goers. The inaugural 2026 festival drew tens of thousands of music lovers from around the globe, establishing Plovdiv as a premier European summer destination alongside its historical landmarks, such as the ancient 1st-century Theatre of Philippopolis.
Promoter Fest Team aims to deliver the scale of Europe’s largest festivals while showcasing the historic beauty of the host city. With legendary dance floor pioneers and world-class pop icons sharing the stage, PHILLGOOD 2027 is shaping up to be one of the summer’s essential European music events.
