Five of America’s 2027 bills are out, and a fair chunk of the names will be familiar to anyone following the European summer. None of these festivals is in our listings or the booking league table, which covers UK and European events only, but the crossover says something about who will be busy next year.

Ultra’s phase one puts Calvin Harris, Martin Garrix and Marshmello at the top, with Dom Dolla, Boys Noize, Sofi Tukker and Indira Paganotto further down (RouteNote, Beatportal).
