Since 2006 BBK Live has taken place on the Kobetamendi hill high above Bilbao – overlooking the city, with its own campsite. The billing leans indie; in 2026 Calvin Harris, Robbie Williams and David Byrne played the stages. A 2027 edition has not been confirmed.

Editors 36%Their eighth album 'Surface, Echo & Sound' is out on 30 October 2026 and the accompanying 2027 tour runs from late January through the UK and Ireland until 12 March — which leaves the summer free for festivals in exactly the campaign year. Editors have long been a staple of Spanish and Basque festival bills, and a rock-leaning slot would answer the fan criticism that BBK is drifting towards pure pop.

Noah Kahan 30%His 'Last Of The Bugs' world tour opens with UK/Irish stadium dates — Hampden Park Glasgow on 13 July, Aviva Stadium Dublin on 17 July, Wembley on 23 July 2027 — so he will be in Europe right after the BBK weekend (8–10 July). A festival warm-up on the continent fits that routing. No Spanish date is announced yet, so this stays moderate.

Overmono 26%The 'Pure Devotion' album (August 2026) and its world tour run into 2027 and suit the electronic strand BBK built up in 2026 (DJ Koze, Charlotte de Witte, Richie Hawtin). Lowered from the previous estimate because the duo already played Primavera Sound Barcelona in June 2026, so Spain has been served recently.

Ride 26%The 'Here And Now' tour announced for 2027 revisits the classics, and BBK Live keeps a standing slot for heritage guitar acts of exactly this lineage: Pavement in 2023, Slowdive in 2024, Belle and Sebastian in 2026.

Teddy Swims 25%He has announced a large UK and European arena tour for 2027, which puts him in the region during the booking window. BBK Live has shown in 2025 and 2026 with Kylie Minogue, RAYE, Robbie Williams and Lily Allen that it is willing to place a mainstream pop and soul voice at the top of the bill.

Kygo 24%Weak but concrete signal: on 18 September 2026 users of the Spanish festival forum Foro Azkena Rock circulated a screenshot naming Kygo (and Basoa) for BBK 2027. It is unverified, but it fits the pop/electronic turn the festival took with Calvin Harris and Robbie Williams in 2026. Kept low until the festival confirms anything.

Wet Leg 24%They are the announced support act on Tame Impala's 2027 UK and European tour, which guarantees them a presence in the region in exactly this window. Deliberately kept low because that same tour includes NOS Alive in Lisbon on 8-10 July 2027, the identical dates as BBK Live, so the routing may pull them to Portugal instead.
