CamelPhat and Armand Van Helden will headline Pavilion Festival 2027, organisers have announced.

Weekend tickets are now on sale for the festival, which will take place on May 1-2 next year. Day splits will be revealed later.

Faithless, Groove Armada, Ultra Nate, DART, Kyle Starkey and festival founder Ewan McVicar will also take to the stage.

Organisers said more acts, including special back-to-back sets, are still to be confirmed.

The announcement follows Pavilion’s fourth festival held earlier this year.

More than 15,000 people attended the two-day event, which featured Detroit house DJ MK, electronic group Leftfield and headline performer Carl Cox.

Ewan McVicar opened that festival alongside his brother Rory after flying into Prestwick.

He also performed his new Scotland World Cup anthem with Clanadonia during Saturday’s finale, 40 days before the competition was due to begin.

For the first time in Scotland, he presented his Party People live show. The 8,000-capacity Big Top was used as a 360-degree audiovisual venue.

The production included three 24-metre by four-metre LED screens across the main stage and six screens around the tent. Lasers, visuals and sound equipment were used.
