Silverstone has announced that Robbie Williams will serve as the first music headliner for the 2027 Formula 1 British Grand Prix. The pop artist is scheduled to perform on the Marks and Spencer Mainstage on July 1, inaugurating the four-day event.
Williams’s performance will commence the weekend with a high-energy show featuring his most popular songs and the dynamic stage presence that has established him as one of Britain’s most enduring entertainers.
Williams stated,
“I’ve heard Silverstone gets loud… Thursday night on the Mainstage, let’s kick off the British Grand Prix properly….”
The British Grand Prix has developed into one of the United Kingdom’s largest live entertainment weekends. Silverstone welcomed 564,000 fans earlier this year, marking the largest attendance in the circuit’s history.
Williams joins an expanding roster of prominent artists who have headlined the British Grand Prix in recent years. In the current year, headline performances included David Guetta, Richard Ashcroft, Chase and Status, and James Arthur.
The concert will inaugurate the Grand Prix weekend, which continues through July 4. Silverstone characterizes the show as integral to its mission of providing an immersive weekend of motorsport, music, and entertainment both on and off the track.
Tickets for the Thursday night performance start at £50, granting attendees access to the venue and concert arena from 5pm. Early access registration remains open until 5pm on September 22, with general ticket sales commencing at 10am on September 24.
